Neck realignment exercise • WholeBodyChiro

Prolonged periods of sitting, computer work, stress, and using handheld devices all contribute to a forward head carriage posture. This posture increases tension in your neck, accelerates degeneration in the front of the lower neck, and leads to muscle cramping, inflammation, and excessive load at the back of your upper neck. This simple passive cervical stretch uses gravity to help restore a healthy curvature in your neck.

Description
1) Lie down on your back.
2) Place a rolled-up towel at the center of your neck. The towel should be big enough to apply firm forward pressure at the center of your neck but not so big that your head lifts off the floor or forces your chin to point towards the ceiling.
3) This pressure will encourage your neck to arch back instead of locking into a stiffened forward posture.
4) For best results, spend about 10 minutes at the end of the day resting in this position.
