Neck pain can make it difficult to perform everyday activities. Here are some of my favorite neck stretches and exercises to help relieve pain.
Upper trap, levator scapulae, and SNAGS/cervical rotation are all simple stretches to get started. These should help loosen up tight neck muscles and relieve pain in the neck and shoulder area.
Chin tucks, isometric cervical rotation, and isometric cervical sidebend are all simple exercises that do a great job of strengthening the muscles. These should help loosen up tight neck muscles and relieve pain in the neck and shoulder area as well.
These neck pain relief stretches and exercises can help you relieve neck pain from a strain, pulled muscle, or even if you just slept on your neck wrong.
Cervical traction and thoracic traction can provide many benefits, but they can be hard to do at home. The KANUDA Spine Nap is a unique tool that can help provide both cervical and thoracic traction at home.
My favorite exercise for Neck Pain Relief is a chin tuck. It’s great for the neck and shoulder, it can help relieve headaches, and it can also help correct posture.
The neck flexor muscles are a set of deep muscles in the front of your neck that help keep your neck in a neutral position, and they also help with posture. Neck Flexors often become overused and weak due to long term phone and computer use. This causes forward neck posture which can cause pain, headaches, and sometimes even dizziness. These neck flexor stretches and exercises should help.
Cervical traction is a popular treatment for general neck pain and specific diagnoses like a pinched nerve known as radiculopathy, disc issues, arthritis, stenosis, and a few others.
My favorite exercise for the shoulder area is a shoulder or scapular squeeze. It’s great for the shoulders, neck, and upper back. This exercise is performed in real-time, so it’s easy to follow along if you want.
