ignorant if Chinese TCM is hocus pocus, china wouldn't be most populated nation on earth. Just because you don't understand d TCM , doesn't give you the right to say its's hocus pocus. As for the neck problem ,maybe the aircon vent maybe blowing directly at the affected area. may visit a TCM practitioner for accupunture or tui na or western physiotherapy. Western doctor just give you pain killers or balm to relieve pain and after a while the pain revisits you.
