Not the best picture in the world to represent the type of stretch I feel is most
beneficial but anyhow;
1. Rotate your head toward your (R or L) shoulder and then
2. tuck your chin and you will feel a stretch on the opposite side. Hold for a few
seconds and repeat.

These exercises are very basic, I know most of us have already seen these or other similar type
rehabilitative exercises in the past. These exercises are to be done in several sets of 6, 8, or 10
repitions, several times a day for the best result; you will be surprised at the amount of flexibility
gained within a couple of weeks. Just in case you have recently been involved in a car accident, be
extra careful, your muscles have been stretched or strained beyond their natural limits and you
would need to be check by a chiropractor in your area.
