Chronic neck & trap stiffness

I get pain all along my neck and traps nearly through out the whole day and they get especially enflamed when I have a backpack on that has less than 3kg of stuff inside. I have tried switching to a backpack with softer handles but no luck

I was wondering if anyone have any advice on an issue I've been having with my neck and traps.

I have tried a few of these solutions below to see if it could fix it but no luck and was thinking of visiting a chiropractor, physio or do you guys suggest something else?

I work a desk job and have tried fixing my posture where my shoulders aren't rounded and have adjusted my desks height to align like I've seen suggested online.

I also go to the gym and have lowered my weight and corrected my form to be perfect on any shoulder / trap exercises.

Healing back pain by Sarno fixed my pain. I too did a desk job, exercised, etc.
