Neck Exercises: Head Lifts

These two exercises are done on your hands and knees.

Do this exercise on your hands and knees. Keep your knees under your hips and your hands under your shoulders. Keep your spine in a neutral position (not arched or sagging). Keep your ears in line with your shoulders. Hold for a few seconds before starting the exercise:

  • Keeping your back straight, slowly drop your chin toward your chest. Tuck in your chin.

  • Hold for  5 seconds. Then lift your head until your neck is level with your back.

  • Hold for  5 seconds. Repeat  5 to10 times.
