Wednesday tip from Tristar Physical Therapy: ease neck tension with chin tucks.
Sit tall and look straight ahead. Gently glide your chin straight back, like you are making a double chin, without tipping your head down. Hold for 5 seconds, then relax. Do 10 reps, a few times a day.
Hours at a desk, on your phone, or behind the wheel pull your head forward and load up the muscles of your neck and upper back. Chin tucks help reset your posture and can ease neck stiffness and tension headaches. If you have neck pain, shoulder pain, or headaches that keep coming back, our physical therapists can help.
