You’re an athlete with nagging neck pain.
Try this: 3 belly breaths in this position daily until neck pain subsides or your traps aren’t as tense.

👉🏼Prone Three Month exercise:
Lie on your stomach; use forearms to push up, creating tall spine without using low back.
🙏🏼Turns off/deactivates trap muscles and regains control of the lats and spinal stability, reducing neck pain.

Steps below. Save this to your exercise library and follow us for more exercises for remote workers. 👩🏽‍💻👨🏾‍💻

For the prayer pose, we will focus on thoracic extension. Find a table or chair and go on knees with elbows on chair/table. Try to use your elbows to push through extension feeling a stretch in the mid back/thoracic spine. Try to get to end range, take a deep breath and return to neutral - pulse/ go through the range about 5 times.

For the wall windmill, press your same side knee into the wall starting with both arms forward - take the arm on the side of the wall and try to make a half circle along the wall trying not to pull away. When you get to 180 degrees take a deep breath and return to starting position. Perform 3-5 per side

Save this for an easy, go-to back stretch during your 2pm slump 🙏🏼
