BENEFITS OF NECK EXTENSION STRETCH:

Neck extension stretches are commonly used in physical therapy to aid in the rehabilitation of neck muscles, joints, and bones. These stretches are designed to enhance the strength, tone, and flexibility of your neck muscles. They also help increase the flexibility of the ligaments surrounding the neck joints, making them more adaptable to withstand stress.

When poor posture causes your head and shoulders to slouch forward, certain chest and neck muscles can become tight and shortened over time, contributing to neck discomfort. Neck extension stretches can help relax these postural muscles, potentially reducing neck pain and promoting better posture.
