Over my career, I’ve treated my fair share of “adult injuries”.

You know those ones that you NEVER got as a kid but now that you’re grown up they seem to happen all the time?

Like you “slept on it wrong,” or “turned too fast.” Maybe you “sneezed too hard,” or “sat down too long.”

Whatever the “injury” - these pains can be awful - especially if they’re in your neck.

These types of “injuries” often result in sharp, stabbing pain in your neck that comes on whenever you try to turn your head or move your neck.

If you’ve experienced this pain, you know how awful and debilitating it can be!

Well today I’m here to help you out of it! In this video I’m sharing 4 of the best exercises you can do at home to help eliminate this pain and regain your range of motion!

These simple stretches and mobilizations have been proven to decrease pain, restore motion, and help you feel better fast.

Sleeping wrong is such an act of betrayal. At least with all the other stuff we’re actively doing something. I can’t control what my dumb body does when i’m asleep 😭 i just be waking up and then i’m in pain for a week.

[Hannahdiri]

I was literally in pain all day, the pain was scary, then I came to YouTube and found this video, just did the first and second one, and the pain is no longer there 🙏 thank you so much sir am grateful

[chirayudarji]

I had shooting pain in my neck after waking up. Wasn’t able to move the neck around. Stumbled upon your video, did those exercises and have got much relief. A heartfelt thank you.

[nataliejo]

Slept on my neck wrong…..I only did three of these exercises and voila! Thank you so much, this was priceless.

I wasn’t expecting this to help as much as it did

[kimf]

I'm a physiotherapist from Sweden and ur helping me finding some new good exercises so thanks for that. I like the way u explain the theory behind each exercise and the way you use pain as a guide to gauge how far to take any given movement

[Peachan]

Yooo this was very helpful, I was crying cuz I couldn’t even study and was worried because my exams are coming soon but you saved me ! Thank you so much doc ❤

[mvwbulb]

I love how sleeping wrong is an adult injury, but being only fourteen and waking with neck pain makes me think that i am just getting old. But the this really helped it didn't get rid of all my pain and relived much of it. So thank you so much

[vrittanyharms]

I slept wrong and when I did these steps everything went back to normal yes, thank you so much

[kenversusryu]

My God! I was having these pains for 2 days and I can’t believe I didn’t think of going on YouTube. Immediate relief! Thank you so much! Such a lifesaver!

[meganhubbell]

I was woken up by pain in my right neck and upper shoulder area. This isn’t the first time it’s happened either. I really liked the last move with the towel! Also, the chin tuck while tilting my head side to side really helped me be able to stretch without the “bad pain.”

[canopyleaf]

That last one with the rotation and towel really helped! I’ve been stretching my neck since I woke up at 6am, and this is the first I’ve found some relief in horizontal rotation. I still need to find some relief for up and down rotation and leaning, but this helped so much! Thanks!

God bless you I’m doing it while working from home which is the reason why i have the pain

[jarinusgermeraad]

I have had a whiplash due to a car crash for 4 years now and after having heard from a wide variety of specialists that their treatment wasn't going to resolve my symptoms, I've been trying to figure out ways to relieve the symptoms. I realized I would subconsciously tuck in my chin when going to sleep and with the knowledge I have gained so far I figured finding a way to sleep with an extended neck might prove helpful in relieving my symptoms.

Adult injury? I have had neck pain from sleeping wrong as a 10 year old…it’s awful lol

[attraction]

Never thought that I would find a solution for this year's old problem on YouTube. The last exercise did the magic for me. Tysm brother.

[petalsandink]

I woke up genuinely panicked at how much pain I was in, and during the first exercises of yours I could barely turn my head. By the last ones, it feels sooo much better. Not gone but bearable. Thank you! The mobilization exercises really helped.

[Ramyapad]

[Nalishfan]

As a child I guess I have a “adult injury” because I slept wrong on my neck
