Office workers and students need to work at their desks for long periods of time. Working at a desk for a long time can easily lead to cervical problems and cervical pain. In the past, cervical spondylosis was mostly a disease that affected middle-aged and older people, but now it is occurring at a younger age, with more young people suffering from cervical spondylosis. If you pay more attention to it in daily life, you will not suffer from cervical spondylosis. Next, let’s take a look at exercises that can help exercise the cervical spine! Steps/Methods 1. Preparation: You can sit cross-legged on a mat or on a chair, with your back straight, your neck stretched as far as possible, your jaw slightly retracted, your arms relaxed and hanging down, and your shoulders slightly open backwards. Feel the whole body fully stretched, hold for 5 seconds, and then slowly relax. Be careful not to close your eyes and look forward. Forward bend: From the preparatory position, slowly bend your neck forward and lower your head. Open your shoulders and pull your shoulders backward until the neck and shoulder muscles feel tight. Hold for 5 seconds, then slowly relax and return to the original position. If you already have neck discomfort, it is not recommended to do the backward leaning movement in the "M" exercise to avoid aggravating the symptoms. Exercises for cervical spondylosis 2.
