Neck pain has become a big part of my life post-concussion. In this blog, I share how to eliminate neck pain.
I’ve done so many treatments that gave me quick relief, but it came back quickly. So I kept telling myself there should be an answer to what I was experiencing, and I kept looking.
Two things eventually helped me tremendously:
1. Eliminate neck pain by being able to move my eyes without the need to move my neck, check out the exercises below to build better eye and neck mobility ↓
2. Eliminate neck pain by being able to breathe without activating the neck and shoulders, check out the video below on how to improve your breathing quality ↓
I got a hold of the first one fairly quickly, but the second took a reasonable time to sync in.
To breathe correctly (without neck breathing), you need to learn how to expand your ribs 360 degrees and let them come down and in on the exhale; it continues to surprise me how hard this can be for so many humans nowadays.
I never teach any session without letting your breath mobilize your ribs first. Incorporating proper breathing could prevent many back injuries, SI joint pains, upper back discomforts, etc.
Make the exercises shown above part of your daily routine, especially if you spend extensive time behind your computer. And if you need extra support, feel free to book a call with me here.
