You need to try a different pillow that supports your neck better.

You want to get an orthopedic pillow. One that will contour your neck while you sleep and give you better support. If you have a sensitive body, sleeping with no pillow is not the answer; however a rolled up towel under your neck as a support instead of a pillow might help.
Go get a massage, it will help relax the muscle.
You can also put heat on it, like a magic-sac or a muscle rub. Both will help relax the muscle.

Get rid of that pillow and get a neck role. Or at least a flatter pillow. you are putting the kink in you own neck.

Try a different pillow, or change beds.
