Excellent video. I have been doing all these for a few weeks now and its making a huge difference. That and always lying flat on my back and slowly aligning my body for a few minutes before getting out of bed, which makes a very big difference to how much pain you are in all day. It allows you to get up without back and neck pain and that makes a big difference in your whole day. Also, do daily arm/shoulder stretching exercises to keep things from tightening up again.

Brilliant. Loving the humor, the reminders, and the extra tips - I've been working on this for a while but some of these are still spot-on. Stefan, if you ever get around to it, I'd love for you to elaborate on something I heard in a video a while ago: That sleeping with two pillows and a bent head made snoring worse! I've found that it kinda prevents my tongue from sliding back and causing snoring (bad as it is for my neck), as opposed to sleeping straight on my back as I've done all my life - or did, until I developed the snoring problem. It seems I can't keep my mouth from falling open when I'm flat on my back (and I am a back sleeper).

@BodyFixExercises

21 күн бұрын

If you're a bit more upright, gravity won't push your tongue back in your throat... so if your WHOLE BODY (or from the waist up) is inclined up a bit, you may snore less. But if you sleep with 2 pillows, only your neck is upright and the bend in the front of your neck can close down your windpipe, adding to snoring and sleep apnea.

Thanks. I had a weird problem about it. One month ago i got herniated disk, so i stayed long time at bed. But now thanks to a couple of exercises i m completely ok on my back, and the pain moved to the right shoulder and a little bit of upper back. I think that was caused by two pillows that i normally used during the day, as the only way to avoid pain on the disk was staying lied down. Now after massages and creams it riduced a little bit, but not so much. I don't really understand why it doesn't goes away, as i m doing a specific exercise for it. Do you think that i should use only one pillow on the bed instead of two crossed, or would be better to stay more up with the back? Thanks

One of my friends attached the TV to the ceiling. It wasn't securely fastened, so it fell and hit his leg - it didn't seem bad at first but the bruising caused an infection. He got gangrene 3 days later and had to have it amputated. 3 days later, sadly, the infection spread to his face and he had his eyes, nose, and tongue removed. He is living unhappily now as he can't talk or see or smell or taste. Sadly just 2 weeks ago he passed away.

I had so much neck pain for years. It’s gone now and the only thing I changed is grounding. I sleep grounded every night and no longer have neck pain. It has taken down the inflammation in my body.

(And no, I cannot read when I lay on my side too) I read like this since I was in high school and now I’m 41 and my neck pain keep increasing. What should I do?

So I’ve got a large torso and short arms where in my car I round my back to see out the windshield, I could lean further back to have a straight spine but then I can’t reach the steering wheel

@@BodyFixExercises yes, because of stress and a burn out I was very tight in my muscles, especially between my shoulder blades and my neck. At times I was scared I was developing symptoms like fibromyalgia. Bought a sauna, did a lot of stretches, but what helped me the most was the theory of Dr. Sarno, about the mind-body syndrome, or Tension Myositis/Myoneural Syndrome. Which states that the cause of tension is from unresolved psychological issues. The physical pain, though, is real,but no direct medical cause can usually be found. Ergo, I'm almost fully recovered now, and the last tension was in my shoulders, neck and back. Hanging was by far the best relief for that

@antonvannelli9085

3 күн бұрын

@@agdraaijer7288 Dr Sarno was right on the money. Mind body syndrome is actually based on nervous system state though. The brain (autonomic) can hold tension in various systems in the effort to try to protect/guard (especially when stuck in a long term dysregulated or fight/flight state). This of course alters muscular function and activation/sequencing of muscles. Muscles help to hold alignment, so poor muscular function will absolutely impact your spinal position. Hanging would have helped to place tension on these muscles, therefore giving your brain an ability to sense them again properly. Remember, we never feel the muscle contraction directly in regards to what is tight, only pain/tension of the area. The brain actively shuts off your ability to sense/feel these systems in the effort to use them to protect you. Feel free to google atheq system and read some of the articles, it might click for you even more. I am glad you were able to find a path to healing! Wishing you the best!
