How I work with the neck

Fascia is the body’s communication network between movement and the nervous system. Restrictions in the fascia of the neck and head can change how the entire body moves, feels, and responds to pain.

This is a minute of what I do to help my people get out of pain.

Which leg did you cross over first?

Probably the one that isn’t as tight

Try this stretch/ fascia floss if you have tight hips.

How to do this amazing flossy/stretch

Leg up

Elbow pit to knee pit(back of knee)

Hold your hands

Counter stretch by bringing your outside foot toward the floor

Twist the spine

Feel that fascia release

To add on(get a deeper stretch)

Crossover the bottom leg

Adjust as needed, take your time

That pain in between your shoulder blades isn’t always just “tight muscles.”

Most of the time, the fascia and muscles around the upper traps + levator scapula get stuck in a protective pattern from stress, posture, breathing habits, or overuse around the neck and between the shoulder blades.

Try this:

Direct pressure into the upper traps + levator scap

Holding the trigger point while turning + tilting the head

A pin & stretch technique to help the fascia and muscles move better together

Most people only stretch the area… but if the tissue can’t glide, the tension keeps coming back.

Try it slow. Don’t force it. Breathe while you move. 🔄

If neck and upper back tension keeps returning, I made a course that walks you through the exact routines I use for relief & mobility.

As always
