What are neck exercises?

Nowadays, many people have some problems with their cervical spine. This is because people often sit for a long time and rarely exercise. This will cause great harm to our cervical spine. Therefore, we can try to do some neck health exercises in our daily life. The following will introduce to you the methods of neck health exercises. Let us all learn about it.

(1) Turn your hands over to protect your chest: Do gymnastics chest expansion exercises, stretch your arms with your palms facing up, and do this for a total of 2 eight beats.

(2) Look left and right: Put your hands on your hips and rotate your head and neck left and right alternately. The movements should be slow and with large amplitude. Try to look upward with both eyes. Inhale when turning left or right. When you turn to the maximum, turn back a little, inhale and pause for a while. Then use inertia to make your neck exceed the original amplitude. Inhale when you return to the original position. Repeat 8 times for each side.

(3) Look up at the sky: Stand with your hands on your hips, bend your head and neck and look up at the sky. At the same time, inhale. Try to look up as far as you can. When you reach the maximum, inhale and pause for a while, then return to the starting position and exhale. Repeat 8 times.

(4) Fight the force with the neck: With the seventh cervical vertebra as the axis or fulcrum, push the part above the seventh cervical vertebra upward and the part below the seventh cervical vertebra downward. At the same time, inhale and exhale when recovering. Repeat 8 times.

(5) Stretch forward to explore the sea: As if standing on a cliff and looking forward and downward at the sea, stretch your neck forward and the part below the seventh cervical vertebra backward while inhaling and exhaling when recovering. Repeat 8 times.

(6) Turn and look back: Stand up and lunge to the left. Rotate your body to the left and lift your right palm as high as possible. Stretch your left palm downward with your neck and look back at your left hand. Inhale and exhale when you return to the starting position. Then lunge to the left and do the activity in the opposite direction. Alternate left and right, 8 times on each side.

(7) Neck massage: Stand and rub your neck with both hands alternately 8 times each. The above 7 gymnastics require a slow speed and large amplitude, and you should take a short rest after each section. Do it once a day and persist.

The above introduces in detail some practices of neck health exercises. We must not underestimate the problems with the cervical spine. We must pay more attention to them, exercise regularly and avoid sitting for long periods of time. If you are interested, you can check more information by yourself. I wish you all a happy life!
