Lying Down Retraction

Description

Lie on your back without a pillow under your head, and place one hand under the base of your skull to stabilize your head. Make sure your head, neck, and shoulders extend beyond the edge of the table or bed. While keeping your hand behind the base of your skull for better support, slowly retract your head by tucking your chin in as far as possible, then hold this position for one to two seconds. Then, gently release to return to the starting position. To add extra pressure, place one or two fingers on your chin and apply gentle pressure during the retraction.
