| What is the major reason that exercises for neck pain | | | | 1. Stretch your arm and shoulder |
| do not remove your neck pain permanently? Why | | | | 2. Get chiropractic treatments, massages, acupuncture |
| does massage, chiropractic, Yoga, acupuncture help | | | | or various other treatments spending thousands of |
| you only temporarily? Why do you wake up suddenly | | | | dollars |
| with neck pain and can't turn your head? | | | | 3. Remove the cause of your pain and stop holding |
| Look no further than your foward head posture. When | | | | the bag of potatoes with an outstretched arm |
| you sit poorly and stand poorly for that matter you | | | | Of course, number three is correct because if you |
| create stresses so great for your neck that it is | | | | continue to aggravate your shoulder, continually |
| impossible for you not to suffer from neck and upper | | | | straining your joints and muscles by holding this 40lb |
| back pain. Every inch your head travels forward of the | | | | bag of potatoes you will continue to have pain. You |
| central position creates and extra 10lbs of weight on | | | | don't have to be a rocket scientist to know this. You |
| your neck structures. This means that if you are sitting | | | | wouldn't spend you hard earnt money on treatments |
| here reading this without sitting upright( think-if you | | | | to try to fix your pain when you know your pain will be |
| were to drop a rock from your chin would it drop onto | | | | fixed by simply fixing the cause of your pain. You |
| your chest or onto the floor?) you are probably putting | | | | would simply stop causing your pain right? |
| anywhere between 20-40lbs of strain onto your neck. | | | | Your neck is no different. This is why neck exercises |
| I want you to imagine how long you could hold a 40lb | | | | will not work whilst you are continually harming your |
| bag of potatoes with an outstretched arm and how | | | | neck and upper back each and every day. This is also |
| much it would hurt if you had to do it( if you physically | | | | why it is nothing more than ludicrous to get treatments |
| could) for two hours. Your arm and shoulder would not | | | | and expect to remain pain free if you continue to hurt |
| only be screaming in pain but they would also hurt for | | | | your neck. And of course this is exactly what happens |
| days after that. This is what you do each and every | | | | to people. They either suffer from constant neck pain |
| day if you sit and stand in poor posture. | | | | or recurrent bouts of neck pain. |
| Take it a step further. If i asked you to hold that bag | | | | I can tell you that i do not get any treatments for my |
| of potatoes every day in the same manner your arm | | | | neck. I have not spent thousands of dollars on an |
| would be in constant pain especially whilst you were | | | | ergonomic chair-I sit on a $15 chair. I have not suffered |
| holding it. If you wanted to stop your arm hurting what | | | | from neck pain in years. You do not have to suffer |
| would be the best way to stop it? | | | | from neck pain either. |
