PostureJac Exercise 5: The Head Turner May 19, 2009 No Comments
One of the consequences of forward head/rounded shoulders posture is the loss of neck rotation in the tightening position. This has serious implications on daily functioning, including seeing your blind spot when you are driving.
The Head Turner exercise seems simple enough, but it is essential and effective for recovery of rotation. Once a healthy and stable alignment is established with the PostureJac, myofascial release can happen. In addition the PostureJac maximizes the separation between scapula/clavicle and the occiput for maximal stretching. The consequence is a greater range of rotation, increased neck mobility and reduction of muscle tension and nerve impingement in the neck region.
Tension and stress in the cervical region is associated with cervicogenic headaches and TMD
