I work as a Recruitment Manager for a software company - I do use a PC for most of the day, and I am working with a physio to improve my posture, which historically has been bad (slumped shoulders). The physio does help relieve the tension across the shoulders but not on my head - the best way to describe it is it feels as though I have a band around my head from temple to temple.

Hi, I'm so glad to see a response from you. I woke up this morning wondering if by some chance you worked in a sewage treatment plant... so I'm relieved to read that you don't.
When you buy your B12, be sure you look for the methylcobalamin form, which is the same thing your body will make from cyanocobalamin if you get that. The problem with that, is that the conversion isn't total so you don't get as much. Over the years people have told me that B12 in the cyanocobalamin form did not work for them.
Another thing is magnesium. Magnesium helps dramatically with tense muscles. Incidentally, magnesium is just about as hard for our bodies to get out of food as is B12... so it's easy to run low.
I'm glad the physio is helping.
if you sit at a desk a lot, perhaps you should add some evening dancing to your schedule...
for the fun of it.
