This study will focus on the efficacy of treating 80 patients who have functional limitations in activity because of chronic/recurrent neck or shoulder pain.

Hypothesis 1: InterX therapy alone will have a moderate effect to reduce pain during weeks 1-2.

Hypothesis 2: Functional gains will be greater in patients receiving InterX therapy compared to those who received placebo treatment.

Hypothesis 3: Chronic neck and shoulder pain is more prevalent in patients who exhibit radiographic evidence of degenerative spondylosis/arthrosis of the cervical spine.
