Are you struggling with neck pain or neck discomfort? Here's how to get rid of neck pain with a relief exercise - Neck Isometrics 👇

Neck pain and neck discomfort are common, especially since the vast advancements in technology where we are forced to be in front of screens for hours on end with no support for the ache and pains that come along with working from home. At the clinic, we found that a tight muscle is a weak muscle! So today, we are going to show you a simple exercise to strengthen the neck muscles to GET RID OF YOUR NECK PAIN 😊. Here’s how to strengthen your neck with neck isometric exercises.

0:50 Alternative set-up to Neck flexion strengthening

1️⃣- While maintaining a tall spine and an upright posture, use your hand to provide resistance to the normal motions in your neck: up-down-left tilt-right tilt. 

2️⃣- Hold each position or direction for 10 seconds at a time at 70% of your maximal strength. This is not meant to be a one-rep max, but rather a therapeutic dose-response. 

3️⃣- While pressing into each direction, the head should not move at all. It would be very helpful to do these exercises in front of a mirror as a guide 😉

Hold for several seconds, then relax, building up endurance and practice the stabilizing motor patterns by increasing the repetitions of the hold-relax cycles.  

❗Please remember, you should NOT ❌feel more neck pain while doing this exercise. If you do and have questions, please STOP the exercise and give us a call!
