How to resolve your neck pain at work
It’s important if you are suffering with neck pain and / or headaches to get them properly assessed by a qualified practitioner. Many people self-diagnose via Goggle, or carry out dangerous techniques which could cause more harm than good. It’s important to establish the cause of your headache and treat it appropriately.
The exercises in the following video have been given to a neck pain sufferer and are tailored to suit their diagnosis, therefore they aren’t suitable for all neck pain patients. To find out which stretches and exercises are best for you, book in with our Cranbrook Chiropractor for an initial consultation.
There is no better time to take action than now
Check your desk setup
Incorrect positioning of your screen, chair, mouse, keyboard can all contribute to neck pain at work, and even headaches.
Drink plenty of water regularly
Dehydration can be an easily resolved cause without the need for unnecessary medication.
Take regular breaks
Staring at a computer screen, phone, iPad etc can all lead to neck pain and headaches. So many parents restrict their children’s screen time but do they limit their own?
Shoulder rolls
There are a lot of muscles traveling up from the shoulders into the neck. These link the upper back, neck shoulder joints together. If one area ‘malfunctions’ due to overly tight muscles or stiff joints they can influence different areas you may not have considered.
Gentle neck stretches
Lengthening muscles which have been tense or contracted helps relieve pain. Encouraging movement is key to a healthy functioning body.
