Cervical Retraction & Rotation With Overpressure

Description

Start by retracting your head and place the hand from the non-painful side behind your head. Gently place the palm of the other hand on your chin. Once the head is retracted, turn your head towards the painful side as far as possible. To enhance the movement, apply a gentle overpressure with both hands, one on your chin and the other behind your head. Hold this position for about one second, then slowly return to the neutral position while keeping your hands in place. Note the effects on the pain during the exercise.
