Ideas for "outsleeping" a stiff neck?

[Amy in Orlando]

I woke up this morning with the stiffest neck - I know I slept weird/restless night. I am hoping to avoid compounding the problem when I go to sleep tonight. Thoughts? Heating pad? Ice pack? I just took a dose of ibuprofen. Extra pillows? No pillows?

I'm really not enjoying getting older.:mad:

Ice, not heat. Or at least that's what the chiropractor told my dh.

I am like that. I always wake up stiff if I don't practice yoga regularly. Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks for the quick responses. I'm going to take some ice to bed and Snickerdoodle, you're right, when I don't move and stretch like I should, I always pay for it.
