Wow! Best neck and shoulder stretch ever! // Anna from Sweden

The no rush in between stretching your soft calming voice makes all the difference for me! Thanks, Jessica, you're doing a great job!

Sometimes I wonder if a 30-minute stretch is really worth it, but when I follow along, I realise that the entirety of the video and the long holds of all the stretches is exactly what works magic. Thank you so much! I was very sore from lifting weights yesterday and this video worked like a miracle. My body feels AMAZING! Thanks again :)

I've been away from yoga for about 15 years so wanted something gentle to bring me back. I found it! Slow, deep, conscious. And the very quiet music in the background is lovely. Enjoy many different videos with you as my body readjusts.

Thank you for this! Being disabled-I had my leg amputated three years ago-and having to move differently than I used to, using different muscles to move, my back and shoulders are always tight and painful. After following you through this practice for the first time, my back already feels looser and less painful.

Ikuko Patricia Yuasa PhD I’m so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for practicing!

Thank you Jessica. I had a large amount of tension in the front and back of my chest and this routine relieved that tension. May fortune bless you as you have blessed me.

Jessica I am so grateful for you, and for this amazing Class. You are teaching ways of healing and it’s working, your beautiful energy flows through us who follow your routine. ❤sending love and light.

Loved this class for my shoulders, feel like a new person physically and feel so calm mentally. You're still my favorite yoga instructor on youtube after searching for videos for more than 6 years; love that you incorporate new poses so I discover something every video, and make me feel like every class has been a meditation! Thank you!

This practice made me teary today (I store and am trying to release a lot of sadness from my mid back to the base of my head). Jessica, I have been doing a range of your videos over the past month, and I have to tell you, I am so grateful. Your pace, your voice, your guidance is so wonderful. Thank you.

Thanks so much for all your wonderful videos! I had shoulder surgery about 6 months ago and thanks to you and your videos I have been able to work myself up to my normal vinyasa routine!

I’ve tried this practice a few times to relieve tension headaches and it works every time. As long as I have enough energy to get myself out of bed and to the mat, I can know this will do the trick. Thank you so much for making this available and offering it for free on KZread, you are a healer!!

This has left me feeling so light and open!!! Sensations throughout my body and so much calmness in the mind! Thank you Jessica❤️‍🔥 For all the online practices i've attempted, accounts ive experimented, I love yours the MOST! You're so gentle, include everyone and their different situations, genuine, and a radiant soul. I love you, thank you!!!

My tendency to hunch forward has wreaked havoc on my neck and shoulders. I'm working to improve my posture and these stretches targeted just the right places! Thank you so much. The pacing of this video was also perfect.

I have tried a lot of different upper body yoga videos and this one is the only one I have found that actually loosened my shoulder blades and stopped the aching I had after baking today! Thank you for this! ❤🙏

I am also super happy to have found you. Your gentle voice in every class you teach makes a difference. I love your sayings at the end of certain videos to express gratitude and say thank you. Keep this up. Thanks for being Jessica :)

I loved this session. I regularly suffer with migraines which start in the left side of my neck and I'm sure these stretches are going to make such a huge difference. Thanks Jessica !

this is the class I have been searching for! It hit every tight area of my upper body that needed addressing. I'll be doing this video more often for sure!

This class is a huge help with my concussion recovery. No more migraines, YAY!!! Thank you Jessica.

My neck and shoulders were hurting me, following this class I now feel so much better! As always Jessica, your movements, your soothing voice, your gentle energy - manage to calm me down. Thank you

Thank you Jess, this is literally healing :) I'm coming back to this class whenever I get too rusty from sitting at my desk or if I'm overtrained. It always helps. Namaste!

The best neck and shoulder stretch routine I’ve found on KZread so far!

Wow, I’ve really struggled with tension in my neck today so this was much needed - I was smiling by the time I got half way through because I could just feel all that stress melting away. Thank you!

YAAAAAAAS I have been looking for something this effective on my shoulders and chest, without all the warriors and vinyasa style… thank you for this NAMASTE

Had a headache all evening and have been holding so much tension in my neck. So glad you posted this today!

I hope the video helped! Thanks for practicing with me. :)

This class is all I need! My job and hobbies require me to be in front of a desk all day, and these stretches help me release the tension built up during the day. Thank you!

Usually I come into a yoga class with the intention of softening the body and relieving tension, but today the big thing for me was how my mood changed! I came into this class a little mopey after a long day yesterday, but now I feel refreshed and ready to take on the day :)

This is so soothing, and incredible for my body. I have a shoulder injury that comes and goes and this relieves so much intensity from it. Yoga and rehab 🙏🏼

I started a yoga sculpt class this evening via Zoom and my wrists immediately started hurting. I left the class and decided to focus my energy on stretching instead. This class was exactly what I was looking for. My body feels refreshed and nourished. Thank you! I love all of your classes, Jessica.

Thank you so much for this class!! I had tears in my eyes at the end because I felt such physical and emotional relieve

I feel great. My upper body sends gratitude. One of my favourites. Thank you Jess💕🌻🌹🌷🌺🌈❤️🙏

Ditto on J Ro55....on all points mentioned. Also to add that your voice instructions are calm and direct. Thank you so much for your gift of light.

Love coming back to this practice. Please make more of these types of videos for upper back, neck, and shoulder!

Thank you, Jessica, i come here having a lot of stress and a very painful neck and shoulders and slowly i feel so relieved thank you to your videos thank you very much so grateful

Thank you so much! I have been holding a pain on my neck the whole day. I feel perfectly relaxed and comfortable now. I do you sequences every day. Namaste from Argentina

Exactly what I needed. Been feeling tension in my upper back between my shoulder blades and this helped so much! Thank you Jessica!

Thank you Jessica, for this wonderful practice! I have recently had a minor whiplash injury - this yoga flow really helped to ease my neck and upper back. You're my favourite online yoga teacher :)

I am a music teacher, always sitting at a piano and have so much tension in these areas. I do this video daily and it helps the most from any other video I’ve come across (for neck/shoulders) Thank you!!❤

What a beautiful flow. I loved the last stretch so much, I am naturally flexible and could perform it with binding my hands behind and one feet on the mat/. It literally opened up all the back and shoulder muscles. I love your channel and keep coming back at it. I am grateful for you Jessica and your smile is contagious❣

Jessica, you've done what no other yoga class has done for me and my bad shoulder!!! Thank you!

I feel so much lighter after this, thank you so much for showing us these stretches! I had a stiff neck and shoulders, it caused me a lot of pain too, but I feel reborn after this. Definitely worth doing it and saving this exercise for later! ❤️🥰

I've been making this practice for a while every morning cause after sleeping my upper body is super tight. Thank you so much for it! :)

Thankyou so much. This class was extremely effective for reducing the tension in my neck and shoulders. I have full mobility again!

I did some gardening yesterday for the first time this season and I definitely felt it when I woke up this morning. This was a great stretch!! Thank you.

Loved this so much! I’ve had such a hard time finding a good upper back sequence and this was perfect!

i had really bad neck and shoulder pain and could barely function but doing this practice a few times a few has really help decrease the pain and I can go back to doing the things I love! I really appreciate this practice and yoga is so good for the body for so many reasons! keep up the good work jessica! :)

I’ve been at odds with my right shoulder for months and this routine gives me some relieve in the pinched area. Thanks dear Jessica 🔝

Just discovered you today. The positions and pace were exactly what I needed for my upper back/neck pain. Thank you, I will definitely come back to this practice.

I always feel a lot of tension in the area around my heart and it transforms into anxiety and overthinking. This class really helps me soften that tension and creates a feeling of peace. It makes me feel space in my body and space between my centered, relaxed self and my emotions. Thank you

I am a flight attendant and after long flights my upper body muscle feels very sore , but after i started practicing yoga watching your videos i am feeling less soreness in my muscles and less stiffness . I am grateful beyond words ✨.

I am an older practitioner. I have pretty chronic soreness in my neck and shoulders (probably from old injuries) This practice has helped a lot. I love your teaching style and your obvious joy in what you do.

This really helped alleviate my neck/shoulder pain. I'm so happy I found it. Thank you!

Thank you! i've been suffering from a lot of pain in my neck and shoulder from a pinched nerve, this was exaaactly what i needed. I am going to incorporate this in my daily routine. Thank you very much!!

This sequence was perfect after three days of being sick in bed. I was so tight and sore in my neck and shoulders and feel much better now. Thank you!

This was the third Upper back/ Neck yoga video I watched today and you hit it out of the park. Thank you so much for this video. My Neck, Upper Back and shoulders feel so SO much better.

After a long weekend of traveling, camping, hiking etc, this was the perfect sequence for my tight shoulders and back. Love all your videos, thanks Jess!!

Thank you so much for this practice! I woke up w/ neck & shoulder soreness & decided to try & stretch it out rather than taking ibuprofen. Well, I feel so much better, lose & open. Thank you, Thank you!!

I am so glad I found this video. So much focus and attention to each pose!

I’ve been working to increase my back flexibility. This was a nice treat for my spine after all the hard work!🥰

Awesome for me as I am a massage therapist constantly bent forward!

Love how complete this felt for my upper body, and the suggestions to breathe or fix posture came at just the right times. Awesome, thank you!

This was wonderful. As someone who has a high amount of body stress daily - this really helped my back / shoulders. THANK YOU

The left side of my neck has been so stiff/sore, after practicing it feels less sore! This session also helped open up my chest which has been tight. I appreciate you! 💓

I also have the same problems with the left side of my neck and this gentle class brought a wonderful relief!🙏

First time met your class today, after doing all the poses, I literally can felt my shoulder pain relief a lots. Felt so goood, I have been suffering the shoulder pain all months by months, definitely will follow you doing more. Thank you I met your channel this morning. Sending lots of love to you.

Hi Jessica! I've been doing this video for around 2+ weeks now.. 2 weeks ago my neck down to my lower back was soooo stiff my head could barely face all directions. It was hard to move and to sleep on certain positions. After a massage on Sunday 2 weeks ago, and doing this yoga for the whole week until today... my neck and back are not bothering me anymore 💛💛 it's completely fine! 🤗 Thanks to you 💛

Always love to practice with you! Your smile makes me smile, too! Thank you for sharing your time and knowledge. 🙏

Thank you so much 🧡 my shoulders were in pain for some days now, and really help me release it. Love your classes! 😊

This practice helped me to reduce stress and anxiety levels, release some tension from my body and overcome an urge to take drugs. Thank u

Thank you, Jessica. You are someone I will return to ease the physical pain which comes with writing. Your teaching manner reminds me of the old days when yoga first came to this country. No whooplala, but peace and love.

Wooowwww! My head feels light after weeks of tension! Perfect pace! Lovely poses! Really helped me to feel better today. Thanks

Damn girl. This was powerful. Came into the class with a headache and sore shoulders from my anxiety and finishing it sooo much calmer, relaxed and my shoulders are so happy now. Thank you!

Thank you!! I broke my leg in a car wreck. I'm normally active, and I can do most of this sitting on the couch with my leg up. Thank you!!!

I love this practice. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful yoga sequence. Really very helpful to get relieved from my upper back pain.

I tried one of your restorative practices and I do it after my walk in the morning - I have a lot going on health wise and I love that my body isn’t exhausted when I’m finished or doing postures I can’t really do yet - I also love that you tell us how we can modify our posture if we do want more of a stretch. I’m super excited for this upper body because that is my trouble area - I can barely raise my arms above my head because I have a ton of holding in my shoulders...thank you for this!!! I will be adding this video to my day! Also your voice is really nice...not too chipper, not too breathy, not over annunciated...just right!!!

I've done now this daily stretching session for the 6th time, and I can feel such a tremendous difference! Before I started, I had some neck pane due to prolonged sitting in front of the computer for my work. And this resulted in very tense upper back and shoulders. But I can see the great positive effects of this stretching class! Thank you so much!!!

Oh my, I’ve done most of these stretches before. But for some reason, in this flow you have eased my chronic pain!! Definitely coming back to this everyday ❤️

extremely melted.. feel so soft and peacefully. thank you hun

I love your restorative yoga flows Jessica. Especially the 30 minute videos which are a perfect length for me to do in the morning!

This is exactly what I needed! Every once in a while I will sleep wrong and cause major rhomboid pain. It’s the WORST. I’ve tried many videos and they do okay but this one REALLY focuses on the upper back and neck and gave me time to sit in the poses with no rushing. Bless you for this Jessica 🙌🏽🫶🏽🙌🏽🫶🏽

You are such a breath of fresh air! This was an amazing class and you are an inspiring teacher. I love your calm demeanor and I love your flow of poses. Thank you so much for your generosity!

Thank you, Jessica. I have been getting migraines from Spring time pollen. I usually do your restorative yoga videos, but searched head/neck and this popped up. I feel relief already!! Happy Easter to you and your loved ones.

I keep coming back to this video when my neck is tight from so many hours in the computer. Thank you so much for putting together these great exercises. I find them very effective, I always feel a difference after the class. Thanks again for sharing!

I woke up with horrible neck and shoulder pain this morning and your video helped me feel sooooo much better! I will be doing this video daily!!!! Thank you!!!! Thank you!!! Thank you!!!!!

Thank you, this was really nice. Enjoyed having a class just focused on shoulders and back. Also like all the alternative positioning suggestions you make throughout!

Really helped my shoulder pain! It's a difficult issue and this is my new favorite shoulder release yoga.

Had a particularly intense swim practice today and didn't even realize how tense I was until this practice helped me relax my muscles! Thank you for reminding us to breathe, as it's something I always forget to do when I'm doing yoga. This was wonderful!

I just started doing yoga, your gentle voice is so soothing to my ears and the sequence of these yoga postures seem to help me with my daily stresses. Love and prayers to you and everybody

Having shoulder pain today and watched this video again - just what was needed! Thank you Jessica!

I found your class for upper body and I 😢began with pain between my shoulder blades..and astonishingly, I finished with no pain! You are definitely doing something right young lady! Thank you very much!

Thank you! I feel a wonderful heat in my left shoulder/neck area that has been bothering me! I will use your wonderful stretches again!

I really enjoyed your sessions as they’re not too difficult but yet very effective. I feel calm and a general sense of well-being after each session. Thank you for making this possible.

Terrific. Best ever. ❤Thank you. It’s bringing a messed up shoulder together, finally.

I will keep coming back to this wonderful class. Thank you

This was exactly the class I needed for my super tight shoulders and neck! Thank you so much, I will definitely be revisiting this one again and again.

I’m now gonna do this everyday. My back hasn’t felt this good in so long. I could cry. Thank you.😭

Thank you for this comment. I was debating whether or not to do this today, but this convinced me to give this a try!

Thank you so much for this wonderful video. I had stiff neck&shoulder, back pain and after few classes with you and slowing down in my daily routine all pain gone. Usually I needed chiropractic to help me to get on my feet. I love all your videos and love get on mat with you, very interesting sequences and I love your balmy and calm voice🙂 namaste

I am super pleased with all your slow flow yoga sessions, and this one is especially fantastic for my shoulder and upper back issues. I do this one frequently!

I have started my online yoga classes. The neck and shoulders stretches are amazing, I am going to include in to my class. Love & light to you. 🙏🙏
