    I want to cry. I’m at work and couldn’t handle my neck and shoulder pain anymore, so I came to TH-cam and stumbled upon your channel. I had radiating pain from my neck down to my shoulder and now it’s gone.
    Praise God for smart people like you that are willing to give your expertise to the world for free!

Moving my neck back or to the side shoots pain down my back right behind my right shoulder blade. 2.5 now and better but still very bad. Did you do these exercises even though they caused you pain while doing them? The doctors I've seen so far say to never let the pain go past 5 on 10. Thanks

    Dear Dr. Alan Mandell,
    Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ!
    I am Roel, I just want to express my word of thanks from the bottom of my heart.
    We live here in the Phililippines.
    I thank you because of the video that you shared in youtube about self traction.
    The severe pain of my wife was miraculously gone after performing your demonstration that she also performed exactly what you demonstrated. After 3 to 4 minutes, her pinched nerve on her back specifically cervical area was totally gone.
    We are telling people how your video helped her.
    We both cried in joy that the pain of my wife was totally gone. Thank you very much Dr. Alan Mandell.
    May God continue to bless you more!

    I’ve been suffering with a complex set of symptoms for 2 years that has confused many consultants (tingling hands, nausea, blocked ears, sore throat, cough, horrendous nausea, runny nose, GI issues). Your videos have helped me arrive at a conclusion of my problems being due to a cervical disk problem. This exercise has given me immediate relief. My journey has been made more difficult because I’ve had no pain in the neck itself but all referred elsewhere. I’m having an overdue MRI next week as I suspect it’s a bulge rather than I full herniation. I did a lot of road biking during lockdown and I suspect that may have contributed. Thank you for your clear, positive advice.

    I have been in constant pain since the 1st of Jan, none of the painkillers I was prescribed have worked like cocodamol, codrydamol and nopraxen! The doc said it was rotator cuff and then saw a chiropractor who said it was a vertebra and trapped nerve! It helps when I see him, but the exercises in your videos have massively reduced the pain!

I was asked to regularly exercise and I was placed on hypertension drugs because my blood pressure raised to 160/110 the day I was going to collect my result. The hypertension drug is not funny....it is a pain on it's own. Please my exceptional Doctor! What will I do to resolve my upper back and neck pain

    Dr. Mandell. I had a neck injury several years ago. I am a nurse and a patient barely leaned his elbow into my neck and it has been pain ever since. I have done so many alternatives to avoid surgery. I have been having an issue with the right side of my mouth, throat and trunk. I started to research if it was related to the nerves in my neck. Well here you are explaining it! That alone is a miracle! I have seen more medical professionals that didn’t think about this as part of the problem. I am going to try your suggestion every day and see what happens. Thank you!

I was sitting in miserable pain at a 8-9 and thats on painkiller and muscle relaxers...nothing was even putting a dent in the pain... the towel stretch literally was a miracle... within 20 minutes i was down to a 2-3, relieving the pinched nerves, and after 24 hours, I'm at a 1-2. I have been watching all your videos now! The trigger points was also helpful... Thank you!

Thank you for this video.

    Dr. Alan, I loved it when you said that muscles have their own memory. I have suffered from chronic pain for 5 years, post a bike accident. I dislocated my tailbone and over the years, the poor posture affected my lower back and gradually, the neck. Both have straightened. Lumbar discs are having osteophytes formation. Surgeon could speak about tailbone removal, but no doctor ever mentioned "degeneration" to me. I learnt about the process on my own and gladly found your channel at the same time. It's cutting edge information indeed, that our surgeons and treating doctors don't speak to us about, when we go in with multiple muskoskeletal pains.
    I have two questions now -
    1. Can you do a video on correcting lumbar straightening? I do a towel roll stretch by lying down. Also started to use a lumbar back support pillow.
    2. What happens to the osteophytes formation? Can they reverse with correct changes? And by doing self traction, can we stop their degeneration.

      Keep doing it. As the doc said mucles have good memory and they come in place in sometime where u want them to be! It can take. Weeks or even months. Keep doing. Patience is everything.

    25 yrs of severe chronic pain, almost 1/2 my life. I wake screaming from my neck. My neck has disc damage c4/5, c5/6 mostly, bone on bone one neck surgeon said, I have nerve compression, bulging discs, bone spurs and facet joint damage at every level down into my thorasic or as far as they did the mri. It is advanced at c2/3, moderate at every other level. Nobody will give me any advice I guess because it is confusing as to where the pain is coming from. But I would suggest both my viral & neck problems. My posture wasn't good but I dont know why in the last 4 years the facet joints have gone from mild to advanced damage. It is so fantastic of you to put these videos up. I was suicidal yesterday until I came across these. I hope they bring you some business. p.s. I did your exercise with the rolled up towel (not too excitedly) and have had non stop migraines since. Any ideas what's going on? I'm desperate.
    Neck pain migrates to nerve pain all over. I have viral problems. I have full blown addisons, thyroid, liver, kidney dysfunction, I am toxic and very deficient in hormones and minerals. They may or may not be related to my neck. One caused the others I don't know. It took until I was 45 (& at that time I had not used a computer much or ever sent a txt) to pick up my completely flat feet. My neck has lost all natural curve and sticks straight out to the front. One of our best hospital pain clinics told me I had the worst bound up thorasic they'd ever seen but didn't even look at my posture. (this was in 2000) So yes, I have kyphosis, scoliosis. After 10 yrs on orthotics & being postural aware, doing exercises, I can stand up much straighter, pecs have loosened, can pull my shoulders back. But now well, the facet joints, disc bulging etc just seems to be getting worse.

    Many thanks Doc. Just following your video and doing the towel exercise for 2-3mins has given me so much relief and has taken away literally years of continuous discomfort.
    Love, light and blessings and happy, healthily prosperous new year. 🙏🏽❤️🙏🏿

    Thanks Doc, my name is David and I have been suffering from nerve pinching due my C6 - C7 disc bulging. This damage was seen by CAT scan after had a 18 wheeler semi drivers door hit me right on the C6 - C7 area. Have had one injection in the injured area, and must my movement improved greatly. However, my friend suggested your TH-cam. This is truly wonderful, my neck feels much better, lighter and more capable of side to side turning. God bless you Doctor, your Irish fan (patient) David

    Amazing results immediately!!! I have been struggling with neck pain on and off for years due to a herniated C6. I have tried everything from a steroid shot in the disc to physical therapy, chiropractors you name it. Two weeks ago it flared up again and in desperation I sought information on the internet. Stumbled onto Dr. Mandell's video and gave the traction a shot. That was an hour ago or so and I went from a 6 to a 2 on the pain scale. I'm going to watch every video he posts on the subject. Thanks Dr. Mandell!!

    I have been suffering with this since 2007 and only last year (2017) I found out what I had. Kept thinking it was just terrible migraines. Neurologists said it was migraines even after i did an MRI and MRA. Google helped me figure out what it was. I will definitely try these techniques. I had a breakdown last week missed work for 2 days. Thank you so much for the help. whether i'm in pain or not i'll make it a regular exercise.
