'4-finger' neck posture technique - use this neck straightening
exercise at your desk at work.
Neck Side Bends - 'free up' the neck at the upper bones, just
beneath the ears - great for headaches!
Note the arthritic changes
that occur at the front and
the back of the neck
bones (the front is the left
while the back in the right
- for both pictures).

Bending the neck forward
tends to open the spaces
at the back of the neck
while bending backwards
tends to close these
spaces down.

Nerves normally occupy
these spaces.
