Best ever video I had found for my pain ❤️😊 . Thank u so much for making this video sir 💗🥹.

    As someone who goes to the chiropractor monthly, thank you for posting this. While I often have other areas out too, my neck is what has bothered me the most and has often turned into a migraine. These exercises are great. They really work and they target other muscles and areas that are often neglected by other neck stretches. Edited to add: When my neck starts to feel sore, I do these and I don't get a migraine from the neck pain anymore. Hallelujah 🙌

    All chiros could easily just give people a set of exercises to do at home instead of signing them up for a period of treatment over a few months at around $60-70 a session and all would be good, but think that would not make them any money would it, chiros are charlatans and are just in it to prolong treatment as long as they can and tell you that you will always need work done to keep the pennies rolling, with correct exercises this does the exact same thing as chiros at no cost, the clicking of joints is something anyone can do much like clicking you fingers, it does nothing but convince the patient something miraculous is happening, save your money.
