So give it a try. A pan or sink with 2-3oz of epsom salts and warm water. Twice a day, and see how that goes. We use it on the Peripheral Neuropathy forum here all the time with good results.

I love the suggestion, but I do not live in a home with a bathtub
Since its my neck/shoulder/arm I don't know if a sink would work, but I might have to try it because my mother used to soak in epsom salts when she was dealing with impinging lumbar discs and leg numbness. It seemed to help her and at the very least gave her some time to relax.
