If you suffer from tension headaches:This will relieve tension in your neck and head often caused by crappy posture — like when you crane your neck while texting or push your head forward when slumping at a desk.
Here’s how to do it: 1. Lie on your back with your legs bent. 3. Holding a tennis ball in each hand between your thumb and forefinger, rest your hands behind your head so the tennis balls are on either side of the base of your skull. 4. Alternate between shaking your head from side to side, then tucking and lifting your chin. If your neck and shoulders hurt:Attempting to give yourself a neck or shoulder massage with your hands actually leads to more tension, even if it feels good at the time. Try this instead.
Here’s how to do it: 1. Stand with a tennis ball between the wall and your shoulder. 2. Raise your arm above your head and shift your head from side to side. 3. Experiment with the ball in different positions along your neck and shoulders. |
