3 Top Neuroathletic Exercises for Neck Pain
Do you often have neck pain? Does your neck quickly get tense when you sit at a desk or stand for long periods? Then try neuroathletic training. Neuroathletic trainer Kevin Grafen shows you the best neuroathletic exercises for home that you can use to train and relax a tense and painful neck.
Neck pain as a widespread ailment
Is your neck stiff, does it crack occasionally when you move your head, and do you possibly have pain that radiates from your neck to your head? Typical symptoms like stiffness or pressure in the neck are widespread. Many people are affected by the "neck" widespread ailment.
But it doesn't have to stay that way, because simple neuro-training exercises treat muscle tension and help you achieve relaxed muscles and relief in your neck – and thus also better mobility.
Neuroathletic trainer Kevin Grafen uses two Vision Sticks and the Z-Vibe to help. You'll be amazed at what your eyes and tongue have to do with your actual neck problems!
Exercise preparation: Inventory
How flexible is your neck? For example, how far can your ear reach your shoulder? Does it crack anywhere? Briefly test these things and remember them or write them down. After all, you want to be able to check afterwards whether the exercises deliver on their promises, right? The following exercises not only address the neck but also the entire body at a neuronal level.
Neuroathletic Exercise 1: Eye Jumps
The starting position for this exercise against neck tension is a shoulder-width stance. For the so-called eye jumps, you hold both of your Vision Sticks with your hands straight out in front of you with extended arms. Keep your elbows slightly bent to avoid tension in your shoulders. Then you let your eyes jump back and forth between the upper letters of the Vision Sticks. In the video, you can see how to perform the exercise exactly. Don't forget the counter-test with your neck at the end of the exercise – you'll be amazed how quickly an effect becomes noticeable! You can repeat this exercise daily to achieve lasting effects.
Neuroathletic Exercise 2: Tongue Stimulation
Did you know that the tongue is strongly involved in stabilizing the neck muscles? In our second exercise, the Z-Vibe Vibrating Pen stimulates the tongue. Because your tongue can also indirectly have a positive effect on the tense region.
Kevin shows you exactly where to place the Z-Vibe on your tongue to relieve your neck! Make sure your chin remains relaxed. Finish the exercise after about 10 to 15 seconds and feel the change in your neck muscles and also in surrounding muscles. This exercise directly affects the neck area and can bring noticeable relief.
Neuroathletic Exercise 3: Humming
The starting position is standing or sitting upright. Your feet should be hip-width apart and stable to create a secure foundation. After a deep inhalation, try to hum on the same note for as long as possible. The resulting vibration can be felt all the way to the back of your head.
Conclusion: Regular exercises help with neck pain
Neck tension and neck pain are widespread ailments, often in conjunction with tension headaches. The cause is often deep in the spine, whether due to tension, poor posture, little movement in the neck, or stress. With targeted neuroathletic training, you can actively counteract pain in the neck area, cervical spine, or even the back.
The three exercises in the video show how much influence eyes, tongue, and vibration can have on tension and headaches. The regular performance of the exercises is important. Important: Nevertheless, neuroathletic training does not replace medical treatment if your symptoms do not improve. In persistent cases, it is always better to consult a doctor.
So, what are you waiting for? Grab your tools and start regular neck exercises – for less tension and more quality of life!
