Tightness in the back of the neck can lead to discomfort, reduced mobility, and poor posture. The Cervical Flexion Stretch is a simple yet effective way to release tension in the upper back and neck, promoting relaxation and improved spinal alignment.

In this video, we’ll guide you through how to safely perform the cervical flexion stretch to open up the back of the neck, reduce stiffness, and improve flexibility.

At Illawarra Rehabilitation Clinic, we’re all about creating safe, accessible movement strategies that promote healing and long-term function.

• Setup & Technique: Sit tall with your spine aligned. Slowly tuck your chin toward your chest, gently rounding your upper back. You should feel a stretch along the back of your neck. For a deeper stretch, gently apply pressure to the back of your head with your hands. Hold for 20-30 seconds, then return to neutral and repeat as needed.
• Posture Tips: Keep your shoulders relaxed and avoid hunching. Maintain a neutral spine while focusing on the movement in your neck. Don’t force the stretch—move within your comfortable range.
• Modifications: Perform seated or standing, depending on comfort. If needed, you can adjust the pressure you apply with your hands for a deeper stretch.
• When to Use: Ideal after long periods of sitting, looking down at devices, or when experiencing neck stiffness or tension. Great for opening up the back of the neck and improving overall neck mobility.
• Benefits: Relieves tightness in the neck and upper back, improves cervical spine flexibility, promotes better posture, and reduces discomfort from prolonged neck strain.
