One of the reasons that people will change up their pillow is because they are looking for neck pain relief. I recently just talked to a patient who could not decide which pillow to buy- she was experiencing neck soreness but had no real diagnosis.
Well, what about other things you can do for neck pain relief? Heat, muscle stimulation, physical therapy, muscle massage, acupuncture and chiropractic to name a few. What about something easy you can do at home? How about neck stretches that you can do easily at home.
Check out the Neck-Push - this is a great for patients who experience neck pain from everyday things - like carrying a heavy handbag or being on their cell phone for too long. We can all get benefit from this exercise.
Forward head posture can cause military neck or "text-neck" and can be cause of neck pain, headaches and soreness. This exercise can help you get the optimal posture in your neck. The hummingbird exercise also helps the upper back area - another area that can take a beating in our digital age. It is easy to slouch when we are on our cell phones, ipads and computers. This will help relax your muscles.
