A member asked:

I sometimes feel my neck is tight so i tilt it side to side and it will click. suffer with mild headaches. could this be posture?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possibly: It most often can be related to repetitive motions, like sitting on the computer for long periods, etc. Deep tissue massages and spinal alignment will help the symptoms.
