@@YourWellnessNerd yes....I teach self care using movement...in particular Feldenkrais and Alexander Technique....and your approach is very holistic....
Is it possible to have the relationship between the neck/upper back working in the opposite direction? I came across your video because I've tried a lot of different things to address tightness and decreased mobility in my neck and shoulders, all with with limited success. I started working on my forearms the other day and it instantly made a night and day difference with my neck, I was blown away.
It can genuinely depend on the person, typically I’d expect there to be more central issue that works their way outwards. But you cant argue with a persons own personal results. As long as each person is working on both the local area and the potential spinal dysfunction that could be related, then things should hopefully improve over time!
insightful. lots of forearm and white issues. to much time at a desk then active without enough warmup. my lower back suffers with tightness. side planks help but only temporary. any recommendations?
I was hoping you'd make this exact video! I'm wondering how this could relate to trigger points. I seem to get them pretty bad in my flexors, usually through the first few inches below my elbow, sometimes closer to my wrist. Instead of getting stronger, my muscles seem to knot up instead, leading to extreme tightness until I do lots of massage
Glad you were keen for the video! Essentially trigger points can be looked at similarly to general muscle tightness in terms of what causes it and what you can do to help improve it! Hope the video helps you find some answers!
This is super interesting. I have had painful forearms at the flexor and extensor tendons and muscles for about 6 years now, since having a baby and returning to work. Definitely have a stiff neck too! What are your thoughts on nerve flossing and this issue? Will be working harder on my posture that’s for sure. Thanks so much.
I noticed an occasional twinge through my shoulder blade with the ball just below the bump of my neck on my left side only. Is that a sign of anything?
It’s hard to say without assessing you mate. From a general perspective, the ball is really good at finding muscle tightness and underlying spinal/rib joint stiffness though!
How did you find the tips in this video? How are those spines functioning?
Nice! Thank U for sharing your knowledge with us ❤
No worries! Genuinely hope it helps!

Unfortunately I can’t offer specific advice mate as I can’t assess you for myself. Hope the tips in the video resonate!

Hey Sarah! From a general perspective nerve flossing can be helpful for many, especially because those nerve originate from those same spinal levels!

I do natural bodybuilding/fitness,
my forearms would be very tight before I directly started training them, with weekly stretches.
