Working at a computer all day can be the cause of neck pain for Frisco TX workers. Just performing repetitive actions while sitting in one position for an extended period can aggravate neck pain from other causes. Throughout the day be mindful of how you sit, making sure to practice good posture with your shoulders straight and your head upright. Stretch periodically, starting with tilting your neck from one side to the other. Do it gently and slowly, and hold the stretch on each side for about 15 to 20 seconds at a time. Stand up, too, and stretch your arms, shoulders and back to ease tension and keep it from building up toward your neck. Use a headset or a speaker when talking on the phone, instead of holding the phone to your ear with your shoulder.

The University of Washington estimates that the average adults brain weighs almost 2 pounds. Whether or not that seems like a lot, your neck still needs to be strong enough to hold your head erect, brain, skull and all. Its only logical that if you strengthen your neck muscles, theyll be able to do the work theyre supposed to without causing any twinges or aches. Harvard Health actually backs that up with a study that resulted in significant and long-lasting neck pain relief when neck pain sufferers participated in neck muscle strengthening exercises. The five exercises the participants performed for 20 minutes three times a week were:

one-arm rows

dumbbell shrugs

upright rows

reverse flys

lateral raises

Three sets of eight to 12 reps should be done for each exercise.
