So, is it wait three months from when the symptoms arise or from end of treatment before you sought physical therapy/massage?

Glad to read this thread as I awoke this morning for the first time with a stiffer neck then usual and a tightness in my jawline and neck that was pretty uncomfortable, especially when moving my head around.

Well... upon looking in the mirror, I saw much to my horror, the beginnings of the infamous turkey neck! AAAAhhhhhh!!!!

I thought I had evaded this cursed demon of H&N fame but he has found me!

I have a compression bandage that was made for me just in case and they taught Marcia and I the technique for massage (complete with diagrams). I'd like to have a refresher course before I dive in.
