Do you suffer with
neck and shoulder pain? There is relief for this. There are
exercises and very simple things that you can do for this.
Exercise Neck Pain |
1. Exercises
I recall when I
worked, I would call about 1600+ accounts more per month. I remember
not only myself, but my co-workers complaining about neck and
shoulder pain. We all finally figured it was due to sitting in a
fixed position daily calling the large number of accounts. We would
massage each others' neck. Also when I would go home I would line
my children up one by one to massage my shoulders. Then I read about
doing the neck rolling exercises of the neck, which helped us
tremendously. Rolling the neck around and forward and rolling the
shoulders backwards and forward helped me a great deal. I cannot
emphasize the importance of exercise in your life. Exercise has so
many important benefits for the body and the mind.
2. Heating Pad
Another discovery
that I made was using the heating pad. Putting that heating pad
around my shoulder and neck area as I retired to bed was very
soothing.
3. Sleep Posture
Did you know your
sleep posture can cause neck pain? I found this out the hard way.
Now it may be okay to lay a baby on the stomach, but when you become
an adult that might not be a good idea, because it can throw the back
and neck out of alignment. So you might want to consider sleeping on
your side or your back. I have had a chiropractor tell me this
also.
4. Positioning
I have found that
sitting at the computer in the same position for long periods of time
is not good. It is very important to keep the body moving. Walk
away from the computer or stand up and stretch often. The body was
made to move.
5. Let’s Get
Physical
Although Michelle Obama is no longer in the White House. The impact
that she made with the Let’s Move movement will never be forgotten.
It surely made a great impact on my life.
I cannot emphasize
the importance of walking. I have observed elderly people and even
people with walkers walking. Walk while you can as long as you can.
It does not have to be for a long length of time. Some may only
walk 30 minutes while others may walk 1 hour to 2 hours. I recall a
heart specialist when talking with a friend of mine. My friend
asked could she walk. She had a stroke and walked with a limp. He
said, “Walking is good for you and it might help you loose some
weight also.”
Cardio gets the
heart to pumping. According to the Mayo Clinic Staff, cardio
exercise can increase your stamina, ward off viral illnesses,
strengthen your heart, keep your arteries clear, live longer, and
much more.
