Hey guys!
I hope you are all doing well, and have had an amazing
summer!
With all the rain happening off and on, everyone’s
allergies have been miserable, including mine.
I’d had a horrible headache for almost a week, with NetiPot, Epsom salt baths,
and my usual allergy arsenal barely touching it.
So! I poured over all my reference books for a good while before
I turned to YouTube to look for cervical spine stretches (I know I talked about
TMJ and Forward Head Posture in one of my previous posts, but I couldn’t even
get comfortable enough to do those stretches!) I finally found this video by Dr. Paula Moore:
It has worked WONDERS for not only my neck pain, but
even pain I was unaware of in my mid back and arms! After three days of doing her
exercise/stretch every time I thought about it or found myself leaning my chin
on my hand at the computer, I was loose enough to do these amazing neck stretches.
Do them. Every time you find yourself craning your neck forward or propping it way too high when watching tv; straighten up, stretch the crown of your head as if you are trying to touch the ceiling, and do.these.stretches.

They will change your cervical spine’s life. :)
