Fasciitis vs node: The insertions of the muscles that extend the neck - trapezius, splenius and semispinalis capitus insert on the occiput and when you evaluate 10 people a day with cervicalgia or neck pain you discover how universal myofascial tenderness and nodularity are in this region. That's why people benefit from simple head and neck massage. It might also be a posterior cervical lymph node draining the scalp
