Neck Side Stretch

Sit or stand with your back straight and shoulders relaxed.

Gently tilt your head to one side, bringing your ear towards your shoulder without lifting the shoulder.

Keep your shoulders down and relaxed throughout the stretch to avoid unnecessary tension.

Breathe deeply and evenly to enhance relaxation and effectiveness of the stretch.

Pulling the head sharply with the hand or stretching through pain instead of applying gentle, controlled pressure.

Shrugging the shoulder toward the ear instead of keeping it down and relaxed.

Rounding the upper back or pushing the chin forward.
