I was diagnosed cervical stenosis, and decent arthritis in my neck. My pcp says I don't have the usual symptoms, my neurologist says I have symptoms that aren't attributed to the stenosis, I've been to PT on 3 different occasions, chiropractor, injections, massage. I'm 24, I've been active for the majority for the majority of my life but nothing I do helps, I'm so tired of not being able to live the way I want to.

An update: It took about 3 weeks to get better. I was prescribed gabapentin so I could sleep (be careful you will have withdrawals with this when you get off of it), and muscle relaxers. Mostly recovered after 8 weeks. I get occasional tingling down my arm still, but I suspect that will randomly go away some day. It's not a big deal at all at this point. Praise science and the doctors that are here to help us. Physical therapy and time was the biggest help.

Holy moly, I just did a thing that made my pain go from 12 to 0. I’ve been hardly able to walk all week because of stenosis, degeneration C7 pinched nerve that was radiating to my scapula. I grabbed my scarf, put it around my neck and laid down on a hard floor. With my head resting against the floor, I pulled back, causing traction. There was an audible pop and I could feel the vertebra move and I jumped up, pain-free. It was miraculous!! I’ve been watching videos and stretching nonstop and maybe that helped loosen me up, but darn!-that one single action made all the difference. Feel better, everyone.
Early January this year I had cervical radiculopathy all the way down my left shoulder and arm, complete numbness on my index and middle finger. An MRI a few days later confirmed a ruptured disc and C7 severe nerve root compression. It was only 2 weeks later I tested my left tricep strength, and I assessed it to be over 85% weaker before onset of symptoms. I couldn't straight my arm against gravity or do a single pushup so that had me worried. I started PT with chintucks, neck and upper back flexibility exercises and tricep strengthening every day. At 4 weeks I saw a neuro who recommended surgery as my arm was still very weak..but in the end decided to continue non surgical route as I felt while slow, I was still improving. Now at 9 weeks and tricep strength almost back to where I was (15% or so weaker) and now doing 10 dips / 15 Close grip/diamond pushups, where I don't really notice the weakness anymore. Pain and numbness completely gone. I know I my experience will not be like others but hopefully might help those weighing up surgery or not. If your symptoms are improving after 4-6 weeks and are disciplined to doing PT definitely recommend not opting for surgery. I feel the chin tucks, wall angels, and a few days anti inflammatories when I had stiff neck episodes really helped, as well as warm/hot baths. Nerve pain really sucks, and I was bedridden for quite a few days. Talking it through with someone can really help, and keeping at it and being patient knowing at these things tend to get better over time.
I have had a pinched nerve all day due to bad posture. (This is a warning to those without pinched nerves!!!!) It hurts like heck. Straightening your body is a much easier choice rather than having an extremely painful pinch in your neck! Listen to these guys. Their exercises help with my pain.
Holy Cow! I'm strugling with this pain from neck to the left arm and elbow for a 5 weeks now! This excercises helped me right away - much better now, what a relief! The one with hands under the chin, and the towel one in particular. Thank you!

Mine came from looking at a computer
Thank you so much for your excellent videos!!! Over a year ago I developed numbness and pain shooting down my arms to my hands, no doubt due to years (I'm 67) of poor posture - round shoulders and head forward position. I was carrying heavy pails of water when my symptoms began, but then I found they recurred while using my cell phone, typing at the computer, practicing piano - anything involving my arms in front of me or looking down. I couldn't drive without my hands going numb! Soon the numbness and tingling wouldn't go away in my fingers. I was worried, but due to Covid, I hesitated going into a doctor's or PT office. Your posture advice and exercises probably saved me from neck surgery! (A friend with similar symptoms had cervical surgery, with no trial of PT.) Symptoms gradually improved over months, but by one year, I was pain free and had no more numbness. I still have to remind myself to improve my posture at times, but I am able to do all the things I want without pain and numbness. Your sound advice is greatly appreciated!
Absolutely unbelievable!! Last night I could only lay on my side Within 5 reps my pain was virtually gone
The detail about how you check patients to see if the pinched nerve is in the neck was super helpful. Knowing that it can be worked and freed up if that’s the issue.
I cannot express how helupful this was! I'm a glass blower and musician, so getting a pinched nerve is quite the worst that could happen, but after doing these stretches several times a day just 3 days later i'm at about 90% recovered where usually i'd have to take off a week or more. Thanks again guys, youre videos are worth everything in the world to those that they help

Hope you get better soon.

Tyvm gentlemen
I think my impingement started in the neck, but the resulting muscle spasms have tightened my traps which is now a second area of impingement. That's my theory at present. So I'm using a ball against the wall to massage my traps (to release the nerve there) in addition to using the advice in this video (to release the nerve from the vertebrae area). Just thought I'd mention that in case it's useful to others. Thank you Bob and Brad for another great video! And I love that you mentioned Stuart McGill. His book "Back Mechanic" has done wonders improving my lower back and thus my life.
Perfect timing guys. My neck has been really hurting me. I do have a pinched nerve in my neck.

Great demostration. I hv this exercise 2 days ago from our physioterapist. It works well. Over here patients having neck pain or pinched nerve problem, we received a free stretchable band, thus we can do this excercise at home, as you shown on this video. Good job , BIG THANKS. 👍👍👍❤
Thank you, the wall angles have really helped. I've had a C6 impinged nerve since last year and recovering well, although the recent lockdowns and working from home haven't helped. Your videos are great!
Thank you for this updated video. The work you do is incredibly important. Went to hospital this week with what I thought was cardiac pain in my left upper arm, severe gripping pain all the way down to wrist on and off, yep it was an old pinched nerve flaring up. So I'm working on that for a few days with your video, ahead of my monthly therapist appointment. Cheers 🌞👋

I went to see a specialist today. My neck has gotten some shifted discs and other things wrong with it and also probably a compressed nerve. I can't hardly use my arms for simple things like brushing my hair. My biggest issue is that I can't find a comfortable way to sleep so I am getting little sleep. You guys have been very helpful to me on numerous occasions. I'm not sure where I would have been without you. A cure would be great, of course, but just some relief is a blessing.

I have a tendency to tuck my chin, tense/lift right shoulder and cock my head to the side when stressed, concentrating hard or whatever the case may be. (I have MS; not sure if related to spasticity or if it's just me.) A herniated cervical disc, whether it's the cause or effect of these involuntary movements- it still causes some pain and numbing so I'm very thankful for all the exercises, stretches and helpful tips in this video!!!

I shared this video with her, as well as reminded her about grounding/earthing (walking barefoot on soil, grass, stone connected to earth).

I love u guys. There's a great improvement I must say. The numbness, tingling sensation on my right hand have stopped. However, I occasionally feel pain in the neck and upper back. I know it's a gradual process and as I continue with the exercise am optimistic that the pain will disappear. Thanx so much!
I’ve tried a few things from your videos, thank you. My struggle is night time, I can’t sleep due to the constant pain and anti inflammatories and sleeping tablets aren’t working.

Thanks the chin tuck helps. I got a cervical decompression device off Amazon that works great. Its a sling that goes around the back of the head and under chin, attached to a rope pulley rachet system, fits over top of solid door and you sit on a stool and basically pulls the head upward. Not the most comfortable procedure and i can only do a couple of minutes but this really helps within a few days. Only $58. Do a few x day. Also simply putting your head upside down gives relief. 4-5kg of weight there. However you can, ive got a back extension rack to lean over.
Been suffering with pain in my shoulder that’s it’s kept me up did one exercise and boom the pains gone thankyou
These definitely helped me!!! Four days ago I woke up with an excruciating pain in my neck area and I felt a pain above my elbows whenever I bent my neck down. Over the next three days I rested as much as I could and I did these exercises several times. I just tried bending my neck down this morning and there’s no pain!!!!
Straightened posture and head up. "W" exercise with back against the wall. It worked for me. Thank you. I'll watch your other videos. I liked and subscribed.

Thank you for this video. I suffer from pinched nerves in my C7/C8 area which also affects my shoulder,upper back,arm,elbow and hand. Sometimes it's the left side. Sometimes it's the right. A couple of years ago it was causing an intense burning in my upper back. I couldn't work for a year and was forced to return to work or lose my job. Finally,after some physical therapy I was better but since then I have been having flare ups frequently. Yesterday was the worse of the past two weeks even without the burning. I found your video and got started with your exercises and am happy to say I've gotten some relief. Thanks again.

You’re not alone. This is so ridiculous, I’ve only had it for two days but it’s totally thrown off my groove. Sometimes I laugh at just how ridiculous it is, but even laughing hurts. I hope this video helps, I can’t take this much longer.

Thank-you for these very helpful tips!
Oh my God! You are rambling on and on and on and I’m in excruciating pain listening hard for a remedy that took foReVer for you two to get around to explaining - exasperating!!!
Thank you both for a very helpful badass video!
Thank you so much Bob and Brad 💕✨🧘🏽♀️
I love this video. You can see the friendship resonate between you two in this video
These guys are so amazing man. It would be so cool to have them as my doctors
OMG!! I LOVE you guys. Thank you SO much. The first move was God sent.

That's usually rotated cuff. It's an RSI common among students during exam cram or if you're frequently placing one arm under pressure
Thank you for sharing these awesome advices. I learned from your posts that I have a pinch nerve. It's definitely degeneration on C6 7. The pain comes from the lower level of the shoulder to the armpit, arm and end with a numbness in my index finger and middle one. Actually the numbness in my fingers started 2 weeks after I started physical therapy. Looks like I am doing the wrong exercises with the therapist. Your videos are so educative and very useful. Thanks again.

hows the progress? did these exercises help with your pinched nerve?
My pain is mostly on the left side of my neck. The pain was excruciating last weekend and my massaged it was feeling better a couple days later and now it’s hurting like it did last weekend. I think my neck gets a pinched nerve very easily. I can barely turn my head without pain and it won’t turn far . I have arthritis almost everywhere. Just had a knee replacement and now I need my neck replaced. Thank you guys for the tips.

Same here more than a year now, I can’t reverse my car
I have watched many vids on this problem, & every single vid has totally different exercises for the same issue. This is the first one that ive seen that makes total sense & describes the pain i endure, especially the explaination about the posture while driving the car! I hope these exercises will help. Been in terrible pain for 2 weeks now.

Hi, yes the pain finally went away, but it took very long! I cant say these exercises helped, or anything healped really, it just went away on its own.. but if youre experiencing this pain, i feel very sorry for you. It was one off the worst ive ever endured. I have some tips to further help you. I found that using a hot water bottle on the worst affected area, helps for temporary relief, and in addition to that, i used a set of dumbels to do back & shoulder exercisees like bent over rowing, tricep extentions & shoulder press. Also extend the arms at the sides and do circular motions while holding the dumbells. Just cycle through all those exercises until total muscle failure & i found the nerve pain almost completely subsides, but it will come back again. I did this for 3 weeks straight before the nerve pain started to subside. Hope it helps

I forgot to mention that i had my wife massage my neck & back at the affected area multiple times daily & if she found a spot that was sensitive, she would focus on it. Also used counterpain all over my neck, but it honestly never helped, but who knows that eventually contributed to healing over the long period. Good luck man, i know how it feels.

Hello do u remember your symptoms?
Herniated lumbar disc since August (getting better!), and neck pinched nerve since February. Nerve WAS getting better, now back with a vengeance, especially in the hands, elbows and shoulders.
This worked for me and I’d been trying everything. I just took a hot shower and got minimal relief but the towel method helped so much. Thank you!
Thank you Sirs! What a wonderful relief...😊
Need this when we avoid going to hospital for theraphy during this pandemic. Thanks B&B
Thanks for teaching me new way of exercising my neck. I was kind what new that what's I already know. I was wrong. By the way I have been praying 🙏 🤲 for new ways. God bless 🙌 🙏 ❤️.
Nice to find this video, and you guys! I get neck pinches 2-4 times a year, in the C6-C7 area you showed on the skeleton. It's so annoying to deal with the aftermath for days until the tenderness subsides. Sometimes it even leads to a migraine, which I'm prone to have. I'll be doing your exercises to improve my posture. One sure fire way I used to trigger a pinch was doing the big morning stretch in bed that everyone enjoys. It always pinched my neck. 🤣 I stopped doing that once I recognized the pattern.

Really great advice. I'm starting to feel better already.
You guys literally healed me with these exercises the same day that I got injured TODAY. I feel 90% of my mobility and strength back with the pain almost gone. I can already feel that the pain will be gone in a day or two with your life saving advice. Thank you so much, honestly. God bless both of you!!

I overtrained by doing too many wide grip pull ups and it messed up the side of my neck. The pain was so bad I couldnt move my head. The advice in this video helped me get back to 100% strength only in a couple of days.
