Neck Pain Stretches DON'T WORK (but this does)

[@filipvretenar6500]

Great explanation, I can't believe almost no one looks at neck pain in this way.

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Thank you so much!

[@RXP91]

Loving this new format Zac. Learning a ton 😀

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Glad to hear it!

[@ST-kt3tf]

Thank you Zack! Your content has been of great help 🙌🏾

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Happy to hear that!

[@brandonworcester7391]

Was so glad seeing you go on Jaw jacks, I love all you PRI guys

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Glad you dug it! He’s great people

[@Happerdoo]

I'm going to implement these, espeically appreciate the points when training/exercising for my weightlifting/bodybuilding. I always get neck tension after pushing myself with weights and cardio. Thanks Zac, your content is great 👍

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Awesome to hear!!! Let me know how it goes!

[@PrabhuramSundaram]

Thanks for the point. I have always thought about the link between Neck pain and Oxygen. And in fact, I believe deep breathing helps any muscular pain in general and not just neck or shoulders.

[@ZacCupplesPT]

I completely agree!

Hey, thanks for making such accessible videos! I have EDS and convergence insufficiency (that Bill Hartman totally identified from my upper back tension patterns because he's a madman lol) and this video is so helpful! I'm an ex massage therapist and I couldn't quite follow Bill's videos because of my lack of kinesiology training. I'm better with my corrective exercises when I understand what's going on. Thank you thank you!

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Glad you got to work with Bill. He’s great people! Happy to have helped as well 🤗

hello, how to release muscles beneath the chin, especially the left side

Amazing video, thank you ❤😊

You're welcome 😊

[@Jichael.mackson]

Wow this may be life changing for me thanks so much .

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Awesome! Hope it helps!

[@cesarpl6137]

did it help ?

[@RubyRedDances]

Heck yes. Keep preaching the gospel. People are SO addicted to feeling guilty about not stretching and always tell me they know they have to stretch more. I don't know where people get this but it needs to end.

[@shlooby6241]

Hi! Nice video, can you do one on treating hyperhidrosis at home

[@ZacCupplesPT]

It’s not a condition I’ve worked with much

[@Hsa008]

Another awesome video

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Thank you so much!

Zac can you help me understand prisms? My therapist doesn't want to look at sensory just yet but I went and got prisms on my own. I was given 3 to the left and 1 down. Testing shows I converge through. I mentioned to my therapist how when I'm outside I can feel my body release and my arms start swinging on their own. I asked if we could try prisms the opposite of converge but he kept saying it's not going to make a difference. I didn't want to argue with him so I let it go but do you know which way prisms should be to help open everything up? I am a right torsion, and maybe the optometrist gave me prisms to open my left field of vision but to help remove tension I might need to open the space up like I'm outside. You can buy them real cheap online. I even went back to the eye DR and asked to try them but they didn't understand, they said I don't need them.

Hey zac i finally stacked, so my question to you is when are you going to drop magnum on us? I mean best exercises 2022? Love you

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Oh dang I should do that!

[@creativemindloveworks]

This is not enough I really need helpful exercises against chronic neck pain it comes from deep down the body

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Chronic pain can definitely be a tough thing that requires a unique approach. Might be best to work with someone

[@samdiab4193]

How can you tell if you have neck pain or referred neck pain (from actual trap pain)?

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Best to get evaluated by a provider

[@alejandrodiaz2793]

I really Hope some day Andrew Hubberman invites you to both share info about eyes and exercise

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Would love that!

Hey Zac! Is it possible for throat muscles to get tight? If so how can this be addressed? Is it related to neck stuff at all?

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Yes it is! I’d look at some of the tongue movements in this vid - m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGStgIN_idNgnas

Maybe note that as a woman not to put the bra on the tightest pin but the most lose so the chest can exand sideways. Because with pain its common to tighten the girls in but theb the chest cant open good. Im just happy we dont wear corsets. Although that would stop my abdominal breathing and straighten my back 😂 i hyperventilate just thinking about it. When you are accidentally burried you die because you cant push out to breathe in. So by being crushed rather than just suffication. Even if your head is above the sand you choke from being crushed. Like in a big croud that panicks and starts like a stampede crushing through a small exit. Anyway. Bra on the losest bucle. 😂

[@ZacCupplesPT]

That's a really good point!

[@patricktoth-meyers5044]

That undone upper button is positively rakish.

Hahahah too kind!

[@bennymac6618]

What would cause the neck to feel like it’s being pulled back while standing straight?

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Not sure I’m tracking

[@bennymac6618]

@@ZacCupplesPT If I am standing in one spot, sitting, or even doing daily activities. I get a lot of neck tension, that feels as if the back of my head is getting pulled down. I have the Narrow body type.

[@bennymac6618]

@@ZacCupplesPT In Addition to that, i get facial/jaw tenderness

[@ZacCupplesPT]

@@bennymac6618 It's really hard to say without evaluating you. In standing there is more tension within the body to stay upright, so you could have limited motion. May be wise to consider working with someone

[@ZacCupplesPT]

@@bennymac6618 See above

[@bobp040653]

Not one simple comment saying I tried this and it works. I don't have this type of neck pain and I didn't t try this.

[@ZacCupplesPT]

What type of neck pain do you have? Perhaps I can put something together for that

[@marksuteu8448]

I didnt know Johnny Sins knows this much about necks as well, glad I found this channel

[@seanc.5310]

It blows my mind how many people still preach stretch and strengthen when it rarely works at all. It’s like a secret society for those of us that get it 😉

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Like a movement Illuminati

[@dawnmaclearfitness]

the neck is in bad posture from the shoes too no one needs a 1/2 inch or an inch under the heel

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Perhaps a contributing factor in some

[@dawnmaclearfitness]

@@ZacCupplesPT but - absolutely - not needed overall

[@ZacCupplesPT]

@@dawnmaclearfitness what about in cases of limited ankle dorsiflexion?

[@dawnmaclearfitness]

@@ZacCupplesPT That would be a small percentage of the population But, all of the population does not need the entire skeleton to be pushed into bad posture from the feet up

[@ZacCupplesPT]

@@dawnmaclearfitness Perhaps I have a biased population, but a bulk of the patients I work with lack dorsiflexion. But I can agree big heel lifts likely aren't necessary for most

Ur funny

If trying to extend a video for monetization was a video this would be it.

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Why you say that?

[@BigPob]

Cause all we want is an explanation not a 12 minute video that has 1 minute of real content, its clear you're just trying to hit the minimum amount of time to get monetized

[@ZacCupplesPT]

@@BigPob Interesting and I appreciate the feedback. I really try to explain why I give exercises because it outlines the thought process behind what I do with patients and clients, as opposed to just saying "do this exercise." Why would you believe me? There is no monitization minimum for KZbin, hence why they now monitize shorts. Mid rolls (which is a bit extra) start at 8 minutes to my knowledge. You'll actually see quite a few of my most recent videos are under that timeframe. If you look at my older content, this is actually quite a bit less time. My older videos were 20-60 minutes long, which has much more monitization potential. So with that in mind and that information, I don't really see how I would be producing content just to get monitized. I basically have a full time job outside of this, so definitely couldn't be living off of adsense ;)

[@ennabassa5233]

Don't listen to him Zac, the newer content is absolutely perfectly balanced regarding explanation and exercise presentation!@@ZacCupplesPT
