As most grapplers I often have a stiff neck, especially after an intense no gi session (without the gi collars your neck is stressed much more). My doctor says I need a sport massage and to stretch more. Right now I don't have the time to go to a massage therapist, but I'd like to try a bit of self care.

Do anoyne tried self-massage? or trigger point therapy? or soft tissue massage? whatever?

Any luck, story, resource (book/DVD) you would like to share?

I don't have any massage advice, except that I stretch my neck more than any other muscle prior to training.

I always stretch out my neck immediately after finishing my last roll.

Stretch, stretch, and stretch some more...
