Break Time Neck Stretches/Exercises-Part Three
Do you suffer from chronic pain, stiffness and soreness in your neck? In this week’s blog, we will discuss the third and final stretch of our best neck stretches/exercises for chronic neck pain series. Chronic neck pain has become a daily reality for many people, especially those who spend most of their day working at a computer under high stress. The risk is especially high for those who sit in poor posture, with the head in a flexed forward position. Take your next break at work or home and perform some of these stretches yourself. You’ll begin to see a difference with neck pain at the end of your workday!
The third neck stretch isolates your scalene muscles. It’s simple and can be done in 3 minutes. Make sure to go as far as possible in each direction for a full stretch, but without pain.
