In this video, my son Dr. Aubrey Lorentz D.C. explains a simple but very effective postural break exercise you can do throughout your work day to help alleviate much of the stress and tension that accumulates in our necks and shoulders from the head-forward position so many of us encounter on a daily basis.
The key to making this work for you is to set a timer at either 30 or 60 minute intervals and to do it frequently to prevent tissue stress from building up. If you are currently having significant neck and shoulder pain, you will want to try and do it every 30 minutes. Otherwise, do it every hour for prevention and maintenance.
