Daily Mobility Exercises by Dr. Kelly Starrett › Forums › Back › Neck – Reverse Curve
I find that wrapping a nalgene water bottle in something like a hand towel, and laying on the floor with it under my neck, adjusting up and down every few minutes provides a lot of relief. I’ve built up to about 20m a day, usually to wind down before sleep. It should feel quite relaxing. You might also want to consider getting a different pillow, like a lower profile orthopaedic one. I’ve found Kelly’s trap & 1st rib mobilisation with a lacrosse ball and doorframe helpful. Good luck.
Hey Goran,
First: Great advice Fred!
Second: You are already doing a good job here.
The key to the head is to improve the relationship with the thoracic spine and also the shoulders.
So: Global extension: Plexus wheel or a keg would be great to lay over for 5-10 min a breathe.
What is your daily set up? Are you sitting at work when you could be leaning against a bar stool?
Go after your shoulder internal rotation (hang archetype)
We need to get you doing some very slow controlled pressing/planking to get those shoulders to stabilize your neck and t-spine.
Finally: We have had great success working with neuro-muscular dentists around jaw positioning. Guard lab etc. We need make sure you also aren’t grinding your teeth.
You got this.
Kelly
