Stretches For Your Neck

If you are experiencing neck pain, you already know that it can be very hard to treat with conventional methods. There are virtually no surgeries that can be performed, and pain medications are rarely effective. Fortunately, chiropractic care has been shown to help with relieving neck pain. To get the most out of a visit to the chiropractor, a patient will need to practice neck stretches. Ringer Chiropractic in Tracy, CA, suggests the following methods you may want to try.

Assisted Neck Pull

This simple stretch is ideal for people who are feeling pain in the back of their neck and the lower part of their head. To do this stretch, place your hands behind your neck and pull your neck forward. As you do this, bring your chin toward your chest.

Ear Drop

Start by placing your hands on the small of your back. Stand up straight, then drop your head to the side so that your ear touches your shoulder. This should help with pain in the sides of your neck.

Forward Fold with a Head Nod

While standing up straight, bend over at the waist and touch your toes. Then, move your head toward the ceiling. This stretch will help with pain at the base of the neck.

The Yes Stretch

This stretch is essentially an exaggerated nod of the head. It can help relieve pain in all areas of the neck. To determine which of these stretches will be the most effective, schedule an appointment to see a chiropractor. They can guide you to the right exercises to help you.
