Tech neck is a real thing (and I have it)

Looking down at screens wrecked my neck. But there are ways to prevent it from happening to you.

Swimming resets the spin. Freestyle and breast stroke.
Swimming also fixes RSI of the wrist and arms. Twice a week for 6 months.

That was a awesome neck crack and Chiropractors are awesome. People that say they are frauds have no idea.

I love all the children in this thread picking up the Mom vibes from you, but I really appreciate the little tips you gave at the end.

Thank you for posting! I suffer from back pain (more so lately after having my 1st child lol) and I just realized LAST NIGHT that I have a “hump” at the base of my neck! I knew it was posture related and a quick search led me to “tech neck.” I hope you have found relief if not a total healing frm the effects done to ur neck & back. I’m thinking I need to get into a doctor! Meanwhile I will listen to the advise of ur video!!

Best solution is to raise the monitor even higher with a stand or something like a stack of books. Even better combine that with a stand up desk. That is what I do and it has dramatically decreased my neck pains.

And you can get this reading books as well

Chiropractic is a bunk industry, you should see a physio doctor.

Having a shitty posture while sitting causes this too

[amirprog]

That is also a reason of why any tech other than in-ear headphones on the head part is absolutely ridiculous. I always said that. The head should be free of anything bearing on it - because it will enevtually catch over time.

I too have the same problem called tech neck 📴

[TheCharleseye]

Same here. Also, Anterior Pelvic Tilt (caused by too much sitting). Working on it, though. Trying not to need a kidney-shape coffin.

Is this the same as cervical kyphosis? I went to the ER for neck and shoulder pain, did a ct scan and doctor found I had kyphosis. The finding reads “there is straightening of the normal cervical lordosis with abnormal cervical kyphosis centered at c4 on c5. There is also mild convex left cervical curvature.” Can this be treated successfully? I’m scheduled to see an orthopedist next week.

Cool video Bridget. Real world problems that's what I'm talking about. 👍

[DiscoR]

I first through it was a Kung Fu sound effect like when someone gets their neck snapped.

[Bula-Boy]

in getting rid of this we will develop trex hands. cool!!

[raptorjec]

Thanks Bridget! I suffer from this as well. Chiropractors don't show immediate effects like other doctors, hence why some people think they are fakes. But yeah, proper bone and muscle alignment is a real thing: it just takes time.

physio or chinese message is the way to go.. chiro is crap
