What is a nape?

The nape is the back part of the neck, just below the occipital bone. It is a commonly overlooked area of the body, but it is sensitive and can be a erogenous zone for some individuals. The nape is known to be a common spot for tension to accumulate, leading to discomfort or pain. It is important to pay attention to the nape area and practice proper posture and stretching to alleviate any tension or discomfort. Massaging the nape can also help to release tension and improve relaxation.
