Hello...
Increased heart rate is called Tachycardia. It has verious type. Transient and Persistent. Again these two have various sub types.
According to your description it is very unclear that Your mom is suffering from which type. But if ECG is normal it means she is suffering from Sinus Tachyacrdia.
Sometimes spondylitis and blood pressure can effect heart rate also. And patient can suffer from Sinus tachyacardia but most of times there is no specific cause for sinus tachycardia.
So my advise is to control her blood pressure with neck pain can decrease the heart rate but if heart rate still more than 100/minute than start Tab Metoprolol 25 mg once a day and can increase the dose upto 100 mg according to response.

Thank You
