Stretching & Relaxation for Neck Physical Therapy

Video Transcript

Hi I'm Monica and I'm going to be taking you through some neck exercises today. We're going to be doing some range of motions exercises with your neck, some stretching exercises and some relaxation exercises for your neck. We're not only going to be looking at the neck, but we'll also be looking at the upper shoulder region and some of them are going to go right in between your shoulder blades here. I do want to caution you that if you have any neck problems you're going to want to take these nice and easy, nice and slow. The joints in your neck are very small, they are actually about the size of your pinkie right here, so it is very easy to overlook if your not careful. You want to go into each stretch very gently and hold it very gently and then release it very slowly and come back out. Especially with the stretches and the exercises that are (demonstrates) having your head back like that, you want to make sure that you're going nice and easy, watching for any pain or any problems (demonstrates). Exercises where you're going back and off to the side be especially careful with that you don't want to overlook those joints in your neck.
