Why do we suddenly feel the urge to crack or pop our neck?

It is a common feeling if we sit for too long, as built-up pressure happens in the spine, and there is the feeling of the pressure needing to be released.

Popping your joints releases endorphins that help relieve the pain, but only temporarily. But this feeling can be addictive, hence the urge to continuously crack or pop your neck after doing it the first time. Neck pain treatment in Newport Beach. Acupuncture, chiropractic and dry needling.
