Description
Is your neck tight, heavy, and painful after hours of screen time? Doctor of Physical Therapy, Karena Wu (IG: https://www.instagram.com/activecarephysicaltherapy/) shows you four moves to release neck tension safely and effectively — no cracking, no pulling, no strain.
Neck pain can lead to headaches, shoulder tension, and that heavy, tired feeling at the end of the day. Most of the time it's muscle fatigue and joint stiffness caused by poor posture and too much screen time. For every inch forward your head sits on your torso, you increase the load on your neck by 10 pounds. These four neck pain relief exercises are designed to reposition your head, activate your deep neck stabilizers, restore joint mobility, and decompress your cervical spine.
