Milton chiropractor discusses: Neck stretches for the desk worker

2/6/2017

 
​To help reduce the muscular tightness and aches that come along with sitting in front of a computer for most of your day, here are a few stretches that all desk workers should do:
  1. Gentle seated neck stretch : Tilt your head to the right and with your right hand apply gentle pressure to your head to increase the stretch, reaching your left hand down toward your left should also help increase the stretch. Hold for 20-30 seconds and repeat on the opposite side.
  2. Clasped neck stretch: Tilt your chin toward your chest. With your hands clasped, bring your palms to the back of your head and gently pull your head away from your shoulders. Hold for 20-30 seconds.
  3. Standing neck stretch: stand and reach your hands behind your back. hold your right wrist with your left hand and gently pull it toward the ground.  Hold for 20-30 seconds. Repeat on the other side.

​Prior to starting any new exercises, contact your Milton Chiropractor to see which stretches are appropriate for you.
