What an about patients that i have significant entrapments in the lateral neck roots. Would giving them some basic nerve floss (sidebends) help?

Thanks for the question. I do not advocate showing a client how to "treat" their own injury and believe it devalues the care we can provide. More of my education to the client is on load management and making better choices in movement and diet. You can temporarily improve them with some flossing, but if we only improve symptoms and not function it can be problematic. To effectively breakdown the entrapment it does need a manual approach, with proper depth and tension.
