1. Biofreeze. It's only sold at physiotherapist and chiropractic offices, and it's not cheap, but it does work. It's an analgesic pain gel (way stronger than icy hot and all the over the counter options)

2. Obus Form Cervical Pillow. I spent a little extra money, but well worth it. The cervical pillow (which has 4 positions and sides depending how you sleep) is great for the neck and back. I will never use another pillow again.

Although it doesn't take the pain away, it does help make you more comfortable and help you cope with pain. the Biofreeze will give you a chance to relax your muscles. Mediation also helps.
I use Biofreeze daily. I recently found it on the Amazon website. It was considerably cheaper than my chiropractor's office.

As for pain relief, Biofreeze is my first go-to.
