DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT PRESS AS HARD AS YOU CAN. That's a bad idea, I did some damages following a novice, unqualified advice on TH-cam and still dealing with damages two years down the track.
That's because you had something else going in and perhaps you've held the tension in the muscles to long.. Continue to stretch out the muscles and as light massages.. Use ice or heat therapy... For the amount of time you had the pain you should have gone to a medical prof. This exercise is to release tension in the muscle.. You'll be fine give it time to heal and get back at it.. Unless you physically unable. You got this
I’ve been dealing with neck/shoulder related migraines for at least 10 years, and have sought out help and treatments from many providers. None have helped consistently and some months the pain and frequent headaches left me feeling as if I can’t live my life. These exercises have helped me in less than one week. I will do them religiously.
I’d been suffering too. Look into Upper cervical chiropractor. There the only specialists that specialize in the atlas and axis c-1 and 2. They are rare and hard to find. I drive a ways to get to him. It’s saving my life. I wouldn’t have been able to do this before
To anyone new to this, dont hold or push any new neck stretch into anything more then a 1/10 on a pain scale. You can cause so much damage to yourself if you over do this stuff. Its reckless that this isnt pointed out in the video.
Agreed. I did too much and made my pain worse. No one should try to do these "as hard as you can", or for an extended amount of time. Both of those things should be worked up to. More instruction on positioning would also be helpful. I may modify these and give them another try...maybe.
@@rurounikenshin9902 Hey, it flared up some trouble spots in the rt trapezius. It's better, but still inflamed/enlarged. Working on it gently with massage tools...
L & B, this is Fabulous !! I've been to Upper Cervical Chiros who basically ripped me off. After maybe 20 sessions, I felt nothing other than getting slightly wobberly immediately after the sessions. The Chiro did very subtle pushes on each side to the Atlas (lying on my left and then on my right on a table. They lasted maybe 5 minutes. These stretches seem to yield great results. I'm 70 yo, retired male, who has suffered with many spinal issues : Lumbar, thoracic and cervical stenosis, DDD throughout, Disc bulges, Spondyliosis, Dextroscoliosis (25 degrees), and Splondylioethesis at L5-S1, and OA in the Hips , knees. Many, if not all people don't realize that cervical instabilities "drives the Bus" in overall well being. After many years of searching the Interweb, Pain Management consultations, Ortho doctor visits, even 6 Surgical opinions (all of which said No Surgery - too much arthritis, meaning that the success rate is not good), this UT video has been very informative and useful. I have a 1 inch shorter right leg sustained as a result of a fractured right femur in 1966 (15 yo) from playing HS Football. When the body cast came off after 3 Months, the right leg was short by 1 inch. My left leg grew normally, the right did not (the Growth plate was detached which in 1966 they Knew Nothing about). Left unaddressed until about 15 years ago, that Trauma has wreaked havoc with my spine, twisting it and curving it. The chronic pain and terrible stiffness traverses to the top of my head - to the bridge of my nose. I've found that cervical instabilities (including the C4-C7 disc issues and loss of the curve) contribute to not only Tinnitus / dizziness, but TMJ Syndromes, Chronic Sinusitis, IBS /GERD, even bouts of bowel and bladder incontinence. The VAGUS Nerve is at Play here. The Vagus nerve is the Motherlode of all cranial nerves affecting a multitude of organs in the body. I'm going to engage thsi regimine of exercises and hope for relief . PS: 48 years of commuting by car (at least 75% of the time) which creates very poor posture - forward head posture - affected me and I'm sure Many others. Pay attention to Tech Neck folks !! Thank you very much for this!!
I’ve had T for two years and had Atlas adjustments for almost six months. I was told by two atlas chiros old whiplash resurfaced when I wrenched my neck dancing pre pandemic. Meditation, yoga, fasting and removing/reducing carbs, salt, sugar, dairy all help minimize the noise. A type personalities get T so it’s all about reducing stress n anxiety. I also use balls for trigger point release, walk my dog and ground barefoot. But yes, the Atlas is in control of the neural highway in the body. If it’s out so is the whole body. I’ve also found that stretching is contrary to laxity in the neck. Strengthening is important. Check out MSK Neurology by Kjetil Larson on TH-cam. He healed himself researching and discovering certain techniques.
@@ALHack29 I did this too but only one session so not sure how effective it was. I did 10 injections around C4/5 w PRP. It was not pleasant. Helps heal/strengthen ligaments. The cost here in the US was around $1,500 for one session not covered by insurance.
Anna, I have to say , I did prolotherapy & it was great , it really worked to get C2-C7 less hyper mobile. But the only problem is now every time my neck goes out, it’s C1, & this is the one vertebrae they can’t do prolotherapy one due to it being too close to the brain. I hope it worked as an overall cure for you.
I have suffered with my hands going numb and burning while I'm sleeping for about 4/5 years now. I knew it was most likely an issue in my neck. I found this video by accident the other day , tried it once and it worked so thank you
@@katehull3286 In the keto gp I'm in it is an anti-inflammatory (low carb diet); many women report their carpal tunnel pain minimized or was totally gone after a month or two. Just wanted to share. Hope you're feeling better.
I had spine alignment issues for years, one shoulder higher than the other, one leg shorter than the other (if I levelled my hips, I could freely swing my right leg), then one of my friends recommended that I see a specialist to get my Atlas bone checked out. My mum had told me that in order to stop me from being born breach, I had been manually turned in the womb. When the guy at the Atlas Clinic checked me out, he discovered my Atlas bone was rotated. It took 5 minutes to correct after which both my legs were exactly the same length.... However, that was ten years ago. No exercises were given at the time to strengthen or stretch the muscles and my neck had been that way for 42 years - so everything had grown from that misaligned place. This video and these exercises are GOLD. I frequently wake up with the circulation cut off in my arms, and struggle to sit in a good posture without pain, the back of my neck and shoulders often get rigid with stress and let's not even talk about the constant tinnitus. Thank you SO much!
yeah I just started experiencing the arms, hands and fingers going numb in 2020. never had any of this before. aggravated something in my neck carrying heavy bags of stone across my shoulders. 30lbs each about 20 bags. two days later my crazy symptoms started. even the back of my neck /base of my skull started going numb. that was definitely a weird feeling. that hasn't happened in a months. but I noticed I kept having misaligned hips since I was a teenager. left side more forward and right leg shorter by almost half inch. I can feel the difference when I walk. I step with the left and swing the right. also the left step forward is much greater than the right and my whole right side of my body has seemed tight for years even along the mid back. now also upper thoracic and shoulder blade area and right shoulder, side of neck really irritate me. I always noticed in photographs too my head always looked tilted or slightly off lol
@@tjgrafiks Sounds like a misaligned Atlas to me! If it's really bad, worth looking up the Atlas Clinic and seeing whether you can find a practitioner. They never used to charge unless the correction needed to be done. Having big problems with tinnitus recently - realised my shoulders and neck were like ropes. Did the exercises from this channel and the whistling stopped!
@@NothingByHalves yes the ringing in the ears is something i used to get once in a while but have been experiencing it a few times a week the last 2 years along with a whole host of other neurological, musculoskeletal issues and digestive issues. I get burning in my neck, thoracic spine and mid back mostly right for years but they never found anything. haven't had lower back issues in years but that has also started a few months ago too.
@@melodyebuskin5490 Atlas was a great start for me, but the Tinnitus is caused by a number of things. Posture is one, but diet is another. Plus there is an increase in EMF/magnetic frequency too, I think, partly natural and partly engineered. Getting your bare feet on the soil really helps (she says, as she never does it herself ) Your comment has reminded me these exercises exist.... thanks!
Overpressure "as hard as you can" can really do damage to people. There should be much more gradual acclimatising to doing these stretches. Issues with instability are red flags for these exs. Physio for 35 yrs.
It's possible! Perhaps they should have added a disclaimer upon that point, but for most of us I think "as hard as we can" is actually surprisingly safe! The human body is an incredible thing.
I did it as hard as I could and it actually popped my neck/jaw back into a much more comfortable position. :3 I agree with Ean OM - the human body is not that easy to injure just by stretching your neck. You can't tear your own head off or break your own neck without outside force - so unless someone has idk, the thing that Sam Jackson had in Unbreakable, then they'll be fine.
I have had chronic pain in the sacroiliac area for 4 years, right now I had intense pain, I discovered this video and tried the exercises gently and for a short time, not the time she uses. I wanted to test how my body felt with something subtle and it turns out that the pain has improved a lot, tonight I will be able to sleep better. I'm very grateful
I love how these are done, with the music selection, makes these relaxing and very professional! Well done! Agree with comment of EDS issues.. I have atlas/axis issues, and yet normal exercises and therapies don't get the same results from my tissues anymore. We need more specialists in EDS issues!
Just found your video. Feels like my neck is out of place. Lump on the right hand side. Strong tinnitus escalated over the last few months. Started these now. Feels better a little even after the first round. I like the timing of the video. Excellent work. Thanks.
I message my tense muscles before ever attempting to stretch them. I would absolutely stay away from bending my head forward as that is usually what causes the pain to begin with. For me personally, strengthening my back, shoulders and neck in combination with fasting has pretty much eliminated the daily pain that I used to feel in my neck and shoulders.
Had a therapist insist on forward stretches. Got headaches and ringing ear. She insisted she was right and ringing ears medical. After a few visits I quit going. Haven't found one who helped yet.
@@thepoocrewofficial2974 stretching cause more damage if you have ligament laxity. Kjetil Larson of MSK Neurology says strengthen not stretching. Check out this videos. I’m trying them now myself.
This was incredibly timely. I just started having this huge amount of tension in my neck today and this fixed it. Feels so free and loose now. Thank you
WOW!! This fixed my tachycardia with just one session. I have had tachycardia for last 15 years, went to all heart specialists, MRI, CT scan they could not find anything. My average heart rate sitting would be 105-120BPM. After this exercise my heart rate dropped to 54bpm sitting!!! Thank you so much. Now I want to see if I can keep the HR low. How many times would you recommend me to do this?
This PT is fabulous. View all their videos. Many people have no Clue how much Cervical Instabilities affect the entire Body. It's taken me years of research to enlighten me. Checkout Caring Medical on YT too. Dr. Ross Hauser gives you more info on CI! CI affects the Vagus Nerve - the 10th Cranial and Largest Nerve (s - there are two, one on each your neck). That Vagus Nerve controls the Parasympathetic Nervous system in the Body - connecting all the Vitla organs to the Brain, sending and receiving nerve signals back and forth ti control the organs' function. Fight or Flight Responses of Anxiety too.
Did these at PT. Take it slow and do not press to hard or over do it. It does help if you do it correctly. I like doing it with the video because she times it for me.
If only my neck were elongated like your neck! Everything over time has become totally tight and compressed! It has changed my posture, the shape of my face…. It’s awful- I hope these stretches will help me get my neck back!
I’ve suffered greatly with neck/ shoulder issues after a bad car accident. I found these exercises by mistake and it was a miracle I did. I found much relief just in the first time trying. I’m so greatly grateful!!! I wish everyone knew! I definitely recommend this video to anyone suffering from neck issues. I was told 6 years ago I need a 4 level neck fusion but it was a horrible and very dangerous surgery! I wasn’t going to trust my life to any medical professional. I worked with injury medical and legal specialists I understand the risks! So no way surgery. Now I have relief.

Wow! My neck feels amazing, but as a dude suffering from ED for like 5 hours, these exercises had the soldier at full attention for a week. It has been very uncomfortable mentally at work trying to deal with this.
Acupressure mats saved my life, ive been acupressuring my neck for years. I can feel underneath the skin and it feels like hard stones in there, its slowly getting easier to swallow pills i kept not taking before. Its a very longterm journey. Edit: i thought you meant eating disorders but im medicated at the moment and i think i misread this comment, bedtime it is then! Acupressure mats do solve like a ton of body problems though
I've definitely noticed my health issues that suddenly started in 2020 came after carrying heavy bags of stone across my upper back and base of neck (across my shoulders) I must have aggravated something. I've been dealing with a whole cascade of symptoms/issues since especially digestive. I realized it's an autoimmune disorder I'm now dealing with but I'm pretty sure whatever was going on in my neck and upper spine is the cause. It literally turned on at the snap of a finger and I went from being active and fit to a walking skeleton with muscle loss and arthritic joints in a matter of 3-5 months. I told docs it feels like my body was shutting down. nothing was functioning properly and it has to be nerve related. I first I thought I had cvd 19 but without the respiratory issues. well in march of 2020 I did suddenly develop an increase of phlegm in my throat and have to constantly clear it. never had that before, but no breathing coughing sneezing, fevers etc. they ruled out cvd but I cld have been exposed then as my other issues didn't start til august. I keep telling docs something's going on with my neck but they just dismiss it which pisses me off. ur telling them what ur feeling and going through and they're NOT LISTENING and their just looking at treating symptoms and not really trying to figure out what's causing it. A Rheumatologist told me I have RA. I said who gets RA over night? can't answer. Me: how do u get RA? Her: some people just get it or it runs in the family. ( which I already know is bs) Me: but nobody in my family has this. I didn't have it one day then it suddenly started the next. I was healthy and active, maybe something I ate or was exposed to triggered it? Her: no it just happens when u get older. Me: so how do young kids get RA then? Her: (getting frustrated with me asking questions so gives me attitude) look I've been doing this a long time and I know it when I see it. just go do these blood tests and I'll schedule a follow up appointment. I did the tests but never went back just solely on how inconsiderate and unhelpful she was. I bounced around to a few more docs including another RA specialists but none could give me any answer as to what actually causes it which made me deep dive into the internet to see what I can find. what I found tells me that not only do they actually know they straight up lie to patients to get them locked in to prescription drug treatments that only lower symptoms but never fix the cause. damaged digestive tract or "leaky gut" both RA specialists had sent me to a gastroenterologist when I never complained of stomach issues. I did complain of pain in my liver/gallbladder area which I now know was due to inflammation brought on by the leaky gut caused by neck and spine issues. basically compromised nerve supply to my organs either from dysfunctional vagus and phrenic nerve and nerves from the thoracic spine where I also have a lot of discomfort and tightness. every time I experience severe tightness in my neck or base of skull my symptoms get worse! I've done some neck traction on my own and some of these exercises and my symptoms have improved greatly over the last 7-8 months. still hard to gain my weight back even with the huge appetite I have. the reason I was always soo hungry more than ever before and still losing weight was Malabsorption ...due to the leaky gut. my body wasn't absorbing hardly anything from the foods and supplements I was chugging down. but once I starting doing the elimination diet and not eating foods that triggered my inflammation (also caused from leaky gut) I began improving. less inflammation equaled less joint irritation and I was able to exercise more and more. I am greatly improved from last year but still have a long way to go. still working on healing my gut as I do have some reactions to certain foods but not as bad as before. my neck and spine are the key for me and for many people the docs don't have a clue or don't really care. you're just a dollar sign to them and they want to keep u on a long term payment plan to keep their pockets full. that's the only reason most are going along with all this pandemic mandate bs and letting govmnts tell u how to treat patients. somethings really off about that! but that's a whole other story lmao.
I was told that these issues are decades long in the making until the body can’t handle it any more and you do just one thing and it just sets off all the symptoms. I also discovered that leaky gut along with neck laxity from injuries can cause a myriad of illnesses. I’ve been down the same road as you doing Keto, taking supplements etc. Please read my comments.
The phlegm in the throat thing I saw in several videos on neck issues that this is a symptom of atlas/vertebral/ vegal nerve misalignment. Check out Dr. Hauser Caring Medical and Kjetil Larson MSK Neurology on tinnitus, laxity etc.
Please beware: Hanna's recommendation of stretching to a 9/10 pain level can be very dangerous for some people. Most therapists recommend stretching to pain or only just slightly into pain. And progress slowly. PLEASE PLEASE DONT FORCE TISSUE UNLESS YOU HAVE BEEN CLEARED OF SAFETY SIGNALS.
I don't think this video is meant for everyone. I'm sure they're great exercises but people with Hypermobility issues, Craniocervical Instability and EDS might want to be careful with this.....it looks slightly aggressive. More gentle exercises would be helpful, at least at first I think
@@gunterbecker8528 You mean when she said to do the exercises less intensely next time if you feel some uncomfortable sensations? Is that the part you're referring to? Because EVEN IF done less intensely, they are still aggressive for some people with these conditions. Pulling on your neck is the last thing you want when you have loose ligaments. Unfortunately I have many years of experience with these type of things and I can tell you it's not pretty. If I can save other people from going through the hell I went through, I will try as best as I can.
@@jaymevogl4338 EDS is Ehler Danlos Syndrome. It's when you have VERY lax and loose ligaments, stretchy skin and generally affects other parts of you body so you would tend to suffer from other health conditions like POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome), digestive issues and others. According to conventional medicine it's genetic...but that's not always the case. I know a lot of people who have healed from it when they healed from pathogens, toxins and started to eat a fresh fruit and fresh veggie diet.
Thank you for sharing this great experience with us, Kugajini! 🙏 It's wonderful to hear you could help yourself and relieve tension and pain in your neck. 💪 Well done!

When I bend my head forward there is so much tension at the base of my skull that it makes a popping sound like when you crack your knuckles. What's wrong with me? The crack happens within the 1st inch of bending my head forward. Feels like my muscles in the back of my head are resisting the forward motion
Great ideas … sadly many people will be put off by the … I think wonderful cross legged position … but many people can’t even allow themselves to be that flexible. Please would you do a similar video with the different positions and things people who feel debilitated could start to work with 🙏💕
Hi there 🙂 Thanks for your comment! Don't worry about it, these exercises are designed to be performed on your own and easily at home to help yourself. 💪 Before you get started, one very important tip: always use your personal pain scale from one to ten as a guide. You will get the best results if you always work at a level eight or nine. Nine means: You feel intense pain, but you can still breathe calmly during the exercise and do not have to tense up. This applies to all exercises and avoids worsening your pain or harming your body. 🙂 Please learn more about our pain therapy and how our exercises work in our informative article on the cause, symptoms, and treatment of atlas vertebra problems. Give it a read! 👉 lie-br.com/yt-cm3-atlascorrection However, as a precaution, you can always check in with your physician before you attempt any of the exercises. 🙏🙂 All the best Hannah from Liebscher & Bracht

...except when you can't find an "upper cervical specialist" to deal with your particular problem. A lot of people see these vids and throw themselves into it, looking for quick fixes. Then there are those of us that know their own bodies and limitations and understand how to approach the exercises in a safe, non-aggressive way.

Whoa!! Has anyone had an atlas injury without access to an upper cervical or atlas chiropractor specifically, and got better with exercises like this? How long did this feel good for you? I'm excited to find out & incorporate this into my daily PCS recovery. I live in a remote community, & although I'm seeing a great team of various health care practitioners, these exercises felt like my neck just left a manual therapy treatment! It's been +1year since my concussion/whiplash (minor kyphosis) car accident, not able to live a regular day - Making huge progress since identifying upper cervical & kyphosis issues, but still feeling like the atlas needs extra love
Brilliant video. Reminded me to stretch more. And to get back into Yoga. Stretching is something we all neglect. And yet it is vtial to our health. I found this video because I've been having neck pain. I did the very first excercise (look into your right pocket), and OMG, instant relief. I could feel all the tension running down my spine, I could feel the misalginment. I will need to continue to do this excercise, at least twice a day. And also the childs pose from yoga. AS well as the Warrior Pose. And downward dog. I legit thought I had arthritis of the neck. When actually, it's simply a misalignment of the atlas. I mean seriously, that first excercise. BAM! I don't hear any grinding any more turning my head. I still hear it tilting it back and forward. But then, I've only just done 1 excercise. It's going to take a while to realign completly. THANK YOU I know for sure if I were to go to my doctors, they would have prescribed pain killers and put it down to old age. I would have had to press them for anything more. You would not believe how miserable I've been the past few months. What are the chances of the very first excercise being the solution to my issue. I don't feel a thing when I look into my left pocket. But looking into my right. I can FEEL all the misalignment, all the tension. The fact it gave my muscles a chance to relax... BLISS!! I have optimism for the first time in a LONG time. Thank you sooo much.
I've had atlas misalignment ever since doing mewing, got chiropractor work when my system was still tight, and only figured out now this exercise 9 months after the initial injury. In the video, it talks about how long term tension leads to tissue degeneration. What other long term problems are there? Can they be reversed?
Be careful - these don't always help. If issues with the atlas are coming from weak and overextended mid back and forward head posture, these can only relieve symptoms temporarily or depending on degree of your pain, make your muscles only more agitated and prone to inflammation. Over-stretching and over-pressing on these areas without addressing the root cause for chronic pain in these areas (such as strengthening the deep muscles of a weak mid back), will only cause more pain.
@@sabziWalaDog I'm not an expert, but currently looking to strengthen my weak mid back and shoulder muscles due to a forward head posture and a weak back, as mentioned above - in my case, pain is coming from here. Check out a youtube channel called Precision Movement and see their videos on back pain (One of them is "Stretching WON’T Fix Forward Head Posture [But THESE exercises will!]". I am finding them to be helpful.
Fantastic exercise...I would always sleep on only the left side for DECADES and it finally caught up with me 20 + years ago and docs would say this and that and would never help I took this into my own hands as I'm a bit of an exercise nut at this old age😅😅..and was continually trying to find something that works Finally the chin tuck for 30 sec finally released the nerve that was causing most of the issue. This exercise helped with relaxing the ligaments in my neck that has been imbalanced all these years. Balance of the body is key!!
These can harm some people. I couldn't watch anymore after she told everyone to press as hard as they could. That's a big no-no. Went to the comments, and sure enough, several were injured from doing this.

Thank you so much for sharing your kind feedback, Garth! 🙏😍 We really appreciate it! For best results, we recommend repeating these exercises at least once a day for a minimum of 2 mins per stretch.

I can turn my head left and right without any issues but I still have Atlas/Axis misalignment. My main symptoms are chronic bloating, throat issues - lumpy throat, difficulty swallowing, squeezing throat and upper abdomen, and nervous tension.
Only Atlas Orthogonal, using the Swesat Percussion Instrument can adjust the Atlas perfectly. Doing it manually can only try to align it. If not done perfectly then yiur vertebral arteries will still be strained to some degree, still causing problems. This is fact. I am not only an AO patient of 16 years, but I graduated from a Chiropractic College, and chiros of all methods, (all around the country) have admitted to this being true.
I have often noticed when I look upward kicking my chin up i felt an uncomfortable pinch back there, so this is very interesting. I don’t know why I never thought to say that to a chiropractor- that said , I don’t think I want to pull on my head and neck “ as hard as I can” …tense tight muscles don’t like that and the body will rebel !
I have many problems with my cervical spine for many years. I’ve been doing the atlas alignment exercises on and off for about 3 months. Should this exercise be done every day?
What is the prsctitioners name and what are her credentials !? Just wondering 💁♀️ shes great, I use many of these on myself and for my clients already!
I can literally feel a hard bump on the right side of my neck up near the back of the skull. Is this what you are addressing in this video? It does not hurt but i do have some posture issues like uneven hips and rounded shoulders. Recently i have trap pain. A reply would mean a lot. Thanks.

Oh no!!!
That's because you had something else going in and perhaps you've held the tension in the muscles to long.. Continue to stretch out the muscles and as light massages.. Use ice or heat therapy... For the amount of time you had the pain you should have gone to a medical prof. This exercise is to release tension in the muscle.. You'll be fine give it time to heal and get back at it.. Unless you physically unable. You got this
Get a stem cell shot, you'll be 100% recovered in 2 weeks

None have helped consistently and some months the pain and frequent headaches left me feeling as if I can’t live my life. These exercises have helped me in less than one week. I will do them religiously.
bless you man, I’m dealing with the same problem, we will make it
11 years here ! I’ve been through it all and can’t find any relief !! Most days I think of ways to just check out ….
I know meds aren’t for everyone but have you tried eletriptan for the migraines? Good luck and keep working at it.
Same here it's a miserable feeling, will try these and hopefully helps
I’d been suffering too. Look into Upper cervical chiropractor. There the only specialists that specialize in the atlas and axis c-1 and 2. They are rare and hard to find. I drive a ways to get to him. It’s saving my life. I wouldn’t have been able to do this before
To anyone new to this, dont hold or push any new neck stretch into anything more then a 1/10 on a pain scale. You can cause so much damage to yourself if you over do this stuff. Its reckless that this isnt pointed out in the video.
Agreed. I did too much and made my pain worse. No one should try to do these "as hard as you can", or for an extended amount of time. Both of those things should be worked up to. More instruction on positioning would also be helpful. I may modify these and give them another try...maybe.
@@rmblossomhey, where's the pain and did it get better now that you stopped ?
@@rurounikenshin9902 Hey, it flared up some trouble spots in the rt trapezius. It's better, but still inflamed/enlarged. Working on it gently with massage tools...
Always start small, or go to a professional
I've had these problems for 25 years, and you can damage it further if not done correctly
L & B, this is Fabulous !! I've been to Upper Cervical Chiros who basically ripped me off. After maybe 20 sessions, I felt nothing other than getting slightly wobberly immediately after the sessions. The Chiro did very subtle pushes on each side to the Atlas (lying on my left and then on my right on a table. They lasted maybe 5 minutes. These stretches seem to yield great results. I'm 70 yo, retired male, who has suffered with many spinal issues : Lumbar, thoracic and cervical stenosis, DDD throughout, Disc bulges, Spondyliosis, Dextroscoliosis (25 degrees), and Splondylioethesis at L5-S1, and OA in the Hips , knees. Many, if not all people don't realize that cervical instabilities "drives the Bus" in overall well being. After many years of searching the Interweb, Pain Management consultations, Ortho doctor visits, even 6 Surgical opinions (all of which said No Surgery - too much arthritis, meaning that the success rate is not good), this UT video has been very informative and useful. I have a 1 inch shorter right leg sustained as a result of a fractured right femur in 1966 (15 yo) from playing HS Football. When the body cast came off after 3 Months, the right leg was short by 1 inch. My left leg grew normally, the right did not (the Growth plate was detached which in 1966 they Knew Nothing about). Left unaddressed until about 15 years ago, that Trauma has wreaked havoc with my spine, twisting it and curving it. The chronic pain and terrible stiffness traverses to the top of my head - to the bridge of my nose. I've found that cervical instabilities (including the C4-C7 disc issues and loss of the curve) contribute to not only Tinnitus / dizziness, but TMJ Syndromes, Chronic Sinusitis, IBS /GERD, even bouts of bowel and bladder incontinence. The VAGUS Nerve is at Play here. The Vagus nerve is the Motherlode of all cranial nerves affecting a multitude of organs in the body.
I'm going to engage thsi regimine of exercises and hope for relief . PS: 48 years of commuting by car (at least 75% of the time) which creates very poor posture - forward head posture - affected me and I'm sure Many others. Pay attention to Tech Neck folks !! Thank you very much for this!!
Wish you to heal.
Please share your experience after a time of practicing.
I’ve had T for two years and had Atlas adjustments for almost six months. I was told by two atlas chiros old whiplash resurfaced when I wrenched my neck dancing pre pandemic. Meditation, yoga, fasting and removing/reducing carbs, salt, sugar, dairy all help minimize the noise. A type personalities get T so it’s all about reducing stress n anxiety.
I also use balls for trigger point release, walk my dog and ground barefoot.
But yes, the Atlas is in control of the neural highway in the body. If it’s out so is the whole body.
I’ve also found that stretching is contrary to laxity in the neck. Strengthening is important. Check out MSK Neurology by Kjetil Larson on TH-cam. He healed himself researching and discovering certain techniques.
If you haven’t yet, you could look into prolotherapy for cervical instability
@@ALHack29 I did this too but only one session so not sure how effective it was. I did 10 injections around C4/5 w PRP. It was not pleasant. Helps heal/strengthen ligaments. The cost here in the US was around $1,500 for one session not covered by insurance.
Anna, I have to say , I did prolotherapy & it was great , it really worked to get C2-C7 less hyper mobile. But the only problem is now every time my neck goes out, it’s C1, & this is the one vertebrae they can’t do prolotherapy one due to it being too close to the brain. I hope it worked as an overall cure for you.
I have suffered with my hands going numb and burning while I'm sleeping for about 4/5 years now. I knew it was most likely an issue in my neck. I found this video by accident the other day , tried it once and it worked so thank you
Wow you totally described me!
I have carpel tunnel surgery last month. You think it'll work for me?
@@katehull3286 I hope so. Has the surgery helped any ?
@@katehull3286 In the keto gp I'm in it is an anti-inflammatory (low carb diet); many women report their carpal tunnel pain minimized or was totally gone after a month or two. Just wanted to share. Hope you're feeling better.
I’ve suffered from numb hands chest shoulder and lower body pain in the legs and feet from this neck pain for a year without know the name of it
I have been doing these exercises daily for 2 weeks now and I have so much less tension in my neck. It really helps!
😂😂😂😂
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Cap
I had spine alignment issues for years, one shoulder higher than the other, one leg shorter than the other (if I levelled my hips, I could freely swing my right leg), then one of my friends recommended that I see a specialist to get my Atlas bone checked out.
My mum had told me that in order to stop me from being born breach, I had been manually turned in the womb. When the guy at the Atlas Clinic checked me out, he discovered my Atlas bone was rotated. It took 5 minutes to correct after which both my legs were exactly the same length....
However, that was ten years ago. No exercises were given at the time to strengthen or stretch the muscles and my neck had been that way for 42 years - so everything had grown from that misaligned place.
This video and these exercises are GOLD. I frequently wake up with the circulation cut off in my arms, and struggle to sit in a good posture without pain, the back of my neck and shoulders often get rigid with stress and let's not even talk about the constant tinnitus. Thank you SO much!
yeah I just started experiencing the arms, hands and fingers going numb in 2020. never had any of this before. aggravated something in my neck carrying heavy bags of stone across my shoulders. 30lbs each about 20 bags. two days later my crazy symptoms started. even the back of my neck /base of my skull started going numb. that was definitely a weird feeling. that hasn't happened in a months. but I noticed I kept having misaligned hips since I was a teenager. left side more forward and right leg shorter by almost half inch. I can feel the difference when I walk. I step with the left and swing the right. also the left step forward is much greater than the right and my whole right side of my body has seemed tight for years even along the mid back. now also upper thoracic and shoulder blade area and right shoulder, side of neck really irritate me. I always noticed in photographs too my head always looked tilted or slightly off lol
@@tjgrafiks Sounds like a misaligned Atlas to me! If it's really bad, worth looking up the Atlas Clinic and seeing whether you can find a practitioner. They never used to charge unless the correction needed to be done.
Having big problems with tinnitus recently - realised my shoulders and neck were like ropes. Did the exercises from this channel and the whistling stopped!
@@NothingByHalves yes the ringing in the ears is something i used to get once in a while but have been experiencing it a few times a week the last 2 years along with a whole host of other neurological, musculoskeletal issues and digestive issues. I get burning in my neck, thoracic spine and mid back mostly right for years but they never found anything. haven't had lower back issues in years but that has also started a few months ago too.
@@NothingByHalves did atlas help you? I had it and it helped other issues but not T.
@@melodyebuskin5490 Atlas was a great start for me, but the Tinnitus is caused by a number of things. Posture is one, but diet is another. Plus there is an increase in EMF/magnetic frequency too, I think, partly natural and partly engineered. Getting your bare feet on the soil really helps (she says, as she never does it herself )
Your comment has reminded me these exercises exist.... thanks!
Overpressure "as hard as you can" can really do damage to people. There should be much more gradual acclimatising to doing these stretches. Issues with instability are red flags for these exs. Physio for 35 yrs.
It's possible! Perhaps they should have added a disclaimer upon that point, but for most of us I think "as hard as we can" is actually surprisingly safe! The human body is an incredible thing.
@@DharmaScienceRadio m
I got dizzy with this exercise !!
How long Will i have dizziness? Pls be so kind and help me what to do ?
Thank you !!🙏🏻
Alex pls help !! I am now laying down until the stretchiness has calmed !
I did it as hard as I could and it actually popped my neck/jaw back into a much more comfortable position. :3
I agree with Ean OM - the human body is not that easy to injure just by stretching your neck. You can't tear your own head off or break your own neck without outside force - so unless someone has idk, the thing that Sam Jackson had in Unbreakable, then they'll be fine.
I have had chronic pain in the sacroiliac area for 4 years, right now I had intense pain, I discovered this video and tried the exercises gently and for a short time, not the time she uses. I wanted to test how my body felt with something subtle and it turns out that the pain has improved a lot, tonight I will be able to sleep better. I'm very grateful
I love how these are done, with the music selection, makes these relaxing and very professional! Well done! Agree with comment of EDS issues.. I have atlas/axis issues, and yet normal exercises and therapies don't get the same results from my tissues anymore. We need more specialists in EDS issues!
Hi. Please share what EDS comment here.. couldn’t find it and I’m a fellow zebra.. I just stumbled upon Loebscjer & Bracht and I’m so happy I did.
Just found your video. Feels like my neck is out of place. Lump on the right hand side. Strong tinnitus escalated over the last few months. Started these now. Feels better a little even after the first round. I like the timing of the video. Excellent work. Thanks.
These exercises are very helpful and the way you present them is the best part of your video Thanks so much!
I have this issue and have been trying to resolve it for the longest time now.. and the allgo's blessed me today with this video. Thank you.
Does t work for you?
Thank you so much!
I message my tense muscles before ever attempting to stretch them. I would absolutely stay away from bending my head forward as that is usually what causes the pain to begin with. For me personally, strengthening my back, shoulders and neck in combination with fasting has pretty much eliminated the daily pain that I used to feel in my neck and shoulders.
Had a therapist insist on forward stretches. Got headaches and ringing ear. She insisted she was right and ringing ears medical. After a few visits I quit going. Haven't found one who helped yet.
First exercise did it! No more fullness in my ear or tinnitus. I know this is probably temporary but I am going to cherish it for now.
How is it today? Still better? :)
It did the opposite for me... My tinnitus got worse after this
@@thepoocrewofficial2974 stretching cause more damage if you have ligament laxity. Kjetil Larson of MSK Neurology says strengthen not stretching. Check out this videos. I’m trying them now myself.
Me too, my neck started cracking as soon as I started this exercise, now it feels better and my ears feel a little less buzzen
OMG my jaw popped and released! That was amazing, I didn’t even know it out. Thank You, great video.
Thank you! Couldn’t move much and now I’m going about my day
This was incredibly timely. I just started having this huge amount of tension in my neck today and this fixed it. Feels so free and loose now. Thank you
😊👍🏿
WOW!! This fixed my tachycardia with just one session. I have had tachycardia for last 15 years, went to all heart specialists, MRI, CT scan they could not find anything. My average heart rate sitting would be 105-120BPM. After this exercise my heart rate dropped to 54bpm sitting!!! Thank you so much. Now I want to see if I can keep the HR low. How many times would you recommend me to do this?
This PT is fabulous. View all their videos. Many people have no Clue how much Cervical Instabilities affect the entire Body. It's taken me years of research to enlighten me. Checkout Caring Medical on YT too. Dr. Ross Hauser gives you more info on CI! CI affects the Vagus Nerve - the 10th Cranial and Largest Nerve (s - there are two, one on each your neck). That Vagus Nerve controls the Parasympathetic Nervous system in the Body - connecting all the Vitla organs to the Brain, sending and receiving nerve signals back and forth ti control the organs' function. Fight or Flight Responses of Anxiety too.
Did these at PT. Take it slow and do not press to hard or over do it. It does help if you do it correctly. I like doing it with the video because she times it for me.
😂😂🎉🎉
This is much better than what PT had me doing
Thnks!
Thanks!
If only my neck were elongated like your neck! Everything over time has become totally tight and compressed! It has changed my posture, the shape of my face…. It’s awful- I hope these stretches will help me get my neck back!
I’ve suffered greatly with neck/ shoulder issues after a bad car accident. I found these exercises by mistake and it was a miracle I did. I found much relief just in the first time trying. I’m so greatly grateful!!! I wish everyone knew! I definitely recommend this video to anyone suffering from neck issues. I was told 6 years ago I need a 4 level neck fusion but it was a horrible and very dangerous surgery! I wasn’t going to trust my life to any medical professional. I worked with injury medical and legal specialists I understand the risks! So no way surgery. Now I have relief.
Boa noite. Faça também exercícios de coerência Cardíaca que é respiração. É maravilhoso e divino devido aos grandes benefícios. Tem várias explicações no TH-cam e também do Joe Dispensa.
Fique super bem.🙏🌠💗🧬
This felt fantastic!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I got some relief…WOW!!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you…Terrific presentation! Mom found it easy to follow as I assisted her. Also…Awesome audio/video quality!!!👏👏👏
Wow! My neck feels amazing, but as a dude suffering from ED for like 5 hours, these exercises had the soldier at full attention for a week. It has been very uncomfortable mentally at work trying to deal with this.
Acupressure mats saved my life, ive been acupressuring my neck for years. I can feel underneath the skin and it feels like hard stones in there, its slowly getting easier to swallow pills i kept not taking before. Its a very longterm journey.
Edit: i thought you meant eating disorders but im medicated at the moment and i think i misread this comment, bedtime it is then! Acupressure mats do solve like a ton of body problems though
No bones to speak of here
I've definitely noticed my health issues that suddenly started in 2020 came after carrying heavy bags of stone across my upper back and base of neck (across my shoulders) I must have aggravated something. I've been dealing with a whole cascade of symptoms/issues since especially digestive. I realized it's an autoimmune disorder I'm now dealing with but I'm pretty sure whatever was going on in my neck and upper spine is the cause. It literally turned on at the snap of a finger and I went from being active and fit to a walking skeleton with muscle loss and arthritic joints in a matter of 3-5 months. I told docs it feels like my body was shutting down. nothing was functioning properly and it has to be nerve related. I first I thought I had cvd 19 but without the respiratory issues. well in march of 2020 I did suddenly develop an increase of phlegm in my throat and have to constantly clear it. never had that before, but no breathing coughing sneezing, fevers etc. they ruled out cvd but I cld have been exposed then as my other issues didn't start til august. I keep telling docs something's going on with my neck but they just dismiss it which pisses me off. ur telling them what ur feeling and going through and they're NOT LISTENING and their just looking at treating symptoms and not really trying to figure out what's causing it. A Rheumatologist told me I have RA. I said who gets RA over night? can't answer. Me: how do u get RA? Her: some people just get it or it runs in the family. ( which I already know is bs) Me: but nobody in my family has this. I didn't have it one day then it suddenly started the next. I was healthy and active, maybe something I ate or was exposed to triggered it? Her: no it just happens when u get older. Me: so how do young kids get RA then? Her: (getting frustrated with me asking questions so gives me attitude) look I've been doing this a long time and I know it when I see it. just go do these blood tests and I'll schedule a follow up appointment. I did the tests but never went back just solely on how inconsiderate and unhelpful she was. I bounced around to a few more docs including another RA specialists but none could give me any answer as to what actually causes it which made me deep dive into the internet to see what I can find. what I found tells me that not only do they actually know they straight up lie to patients to get them locked in to prescription drug treatments that only lower symptoms but never fix the cause. damaged digestive tract or "leaky gut" both RA specialists had sent me to a gastroenterologist when I never complained of stomach issues. I did complain of pain in my liver/gallbladder area which I now know was due to inflammation brought on by the leaky gut caused by neck and spine issues. basically compromised nerve supply to my organs either from dysfunctional vagus and phrenic nerve and nerves from the thoracic spine where I also have a lot of discomfort and tightness.
every time I experience severe tightness in my neck or base of skull my symptoms get worse!
I've done some neck traction on my own and some of these exercises and my symptoms have improved greatly over the last 7-8 months. still hard to gain my weight back even with the huge appetite I have. the reason I was always soo hungry more than ever before and still losing weight was Malabsorption ...due to the leaky gut. my body wasn't absorbing hardly anything from the foods and supplements I was chugging down. but once I starting doing the elimination diet and not eating foods that triggered my inflammation (also caused from leaky gut) I began improving. less inflammation equaled less joint irritation and I was able to exercise more and more. I am greatly improved from last year but still have a long way to go. still working on healing my gut as I do have some reactions to certain foods but not as bad as before. my neck and spine are the key for me and for many people the docs don't have a clue or don't really care. you're just a dollar sign to them and they want to keep u on a long term payment plan to keep their pockets full. that's the only reason most are going along with all this pandemic mandate bs and letting govmnts tell u how to treat patients. somethings really off about that! but that's a whole other story lmao.
I was told that these issues are decades long in the making until the body can’t handle it any more and you do just one thing and it just sets off all the symptoms. I also discovered that leaky gut along with neck laxity from injuries can cause a myriad of illnesses. I’ve been down the same road as you doing Keto, taking supplements etc. Please read my comments.
The phlegm in the throat thing I saw in several videos on neck issues that this is a symptom of atlas/vertebral/ vegal nerve misalignment. Check out Dr. Hauser Caring Medical and Kjetil Larson MSK Neurology on tinnitus, laxity etc.

Powerful preaching, amazing message ! 💖
Please beware: Hanna's recommendation of stretching to a 9/10 pain level can be very dangerous for some people. Most therapists recommend stretching to pain or only just slightly into pain. And progress slowly. PLEASE PLEASE DONT FORCE TISSUE UNLESS YOU HAVE BEEN CLEARED OF SAFETY SIGNALS.
You just stretch as much as you are able to.
Thank you .
I don't think this video is meant for everyone. I'm sure they're great exercises but people with Hypermobility issues, Craniocervical Instability and EDS might want to be careful with this.....it looks slightly aggressive. More gentle exercises would be helpful, at least at first I think
Thats what she exactly emphasised at the end,listen carefully!
@@gunterbecker8528 You mean when she said to do the exercises less intensely next time if you feel some uncomfortable sensations? Is that the part you're referring to? Because EVEN IF done less intensely, they are still aggressive for some people with these conditions. Pulling on your neck is the last thing you want when you have loose ligaments. Unfortunately I have many years of experience with these type of things and I can tell you it's not pretty. If I can save other people from going through the hell I went through, I will try as best as I can.
What is EDS?
@@jaymevogl4338 EDS is Ehler Danlos Syndrome. It's when you have VERY lax and loose ligaments, stretchy skin and generally affects other parts of you body so you would tend to suffer from other health conditions like POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome), digestive issues and others. According to conventional medicine it's genetic...but that's not always the case. I know a lot of people who have healed from it when they healed from pathogens, toxins and started to eat a fresh fruit and fresh veggie diet.
Thanks for the heads up. I am hyper mobile.
This exercises are very good.I have relief my neck pain.thank you

When I bend my head forward there is so much tension at the base of my skull that it makes a popping sound like when you crack your knuckles. What's wrong with me? The crack happens within the 1st inch of bending my head forward. Feels like my muscles in the back of my head are resisting the forward motion
Great ideas … sadly many people will be put off by the … I think wonderful cross legged position … but many people can’t even allow themselves to be that flexible.
Please would you do a similar video with the different positions and things people who feel debilitated could start to work with 🙏💕
may the good LORD bless and protect you and your entire families way of life.
super helpful video to stretch along, thank you so much!
Your absolutely the sweetest most helpful. Thank you for your help.
This helped my ribs and everything!!
To anybody watching this video please do not adjust your own Atlas, Atlas adjustment should only be done by upper cervical specialist.
Hi there 🙂
Thanks for your comment! Don't worry about it, these exercises are designed to be performed on your own and easily at home to help yourself. 💪 Before you get started, one very important tip: always use your personal pain scale from one to ten as a guide. You will get the best results if you always work at a level eight or nine. Nine means: You feel intense pain, but you can still breathe calmly during the exercise and do not have to tense up. This applies to all exercises and avoids worsening your pain or harming your body. 🙂 Please learn more about our pain therapy and how our exercises work in our informative article on the cause, symptoms, and treatment of atlas vertebra problems. Give it a read! 👉 lie-br.com/yt-cm3-atlascorrection However, as a precaution, you can always check in with your physician before you attempt any of the exercises. 🙏🙂
All the best

These might not be super helpful if you require serious medical intervention such as disc replacement or a cervical fusion procedure.
started uc study with pettibon. sweat seminars. Blair at Sherman....correspondence with several others both orthogonal and otherwise. bj and Al wernsing fathered a family of procedures both by hand and instrument. do it yourself!!!! this is just plain scary dr johnk
...except when you can't find an "upper cervical specialist" to deal with your particular problem. A lot of people see these vids and throw themselves into it, looking for quick fixes. Then there are those of us that know their own bodies and limitations and understand how to approach the exercises in a safe, non-aggressive way.
How often do you recommend?
Ever since my ACDF my atlas has been locked.Muscles on the right side have been super tight.
Right side of neck muscles or whole body?
@@LiMitZplus whole body for me neck , shoulders, thoracic, mid back, knee, hip and groin. I can't pull my right knee to my chest without groin pain and my knee tends to go outward instead of staying straight like the left.

Whoa!! Has anyone had an atlas injury without access to an upper cervical or atlas chiropractor specifically, and got better with exercises like this? How long did this feel good for you? I'm excited to find out & incorporate this into my daily PCS recovery.
I live in a remote community, & although I'm seeing a great team of various health care practitioners, these exercises felt like my neck just left a manual therapy treatment!
It's been +1year since my concussion/whiplash (minor kyphosis) car accident, not able to live a regular day - Making huge progress since identifying upper cervical & kyphosis issues, but still feeling like the atlas needs extra love
Brilliant video.
Reminded me to stretch more.
And to get back into Yoga.
Stretching is something we all neglect.
And yet it is vtial to our health.
I found this video because I've been having neck pain.
I did the very first excercise (look into your right pocket), and OMG, instant relief.
I could feel all the tension running down my spine, I could feel the misalginment.
I will need to continue to do this excercise, at least twice a day.
And also the childs pose from yoga. AS well as the Warrior Pose.
And downward dog.
I legit thought I had arthritis of the neck.
When actually, it's simply a misalignment of the atlas.
I mean seriously, that first excercise. BAM! I don't hear any grinding any more turning my head.
I still hear it tilting it back and forward.
But then, I've only just done 1 excercise.
It's going to take a while to realign completly.
THANK YOU
I know for sure if I were to go to my doctors, they would have prescribed pain killers and put it down to old age.
I would have had to press them for anything more.
You would not believe how miserable I've been the past few months.
What are the chances of the very first excercise being the solution to my issue.
I don't feel a thing when I look into my left pocket.
But looking into my right. I can FEEL all the misalignment, all the tension. The fact it gave my muscles a chance to relax... BLISS!!
I have optimism for the first time in a LONG time. Thank you sooo much.
Thank you dear ,very much appreciated !
I've had atlas misalignment ever since doing mewing, got chiropractor work when my system was still tight, and only figured out now this exercise 9 months after the initial injury. In the video, it talks about how long term tension leads to tissue degeneration. What other long term problems are there? Can they be reversed?
Be careful - these don't always help. If issues with the atlas are coming from weak and overextended mid back and forward head posture, these can only relieve symptoms temporarily or depending on degree of your pain, make your muscles only more agitated and prone to inflammation. Over-stretching and over-pressing on these areas without addressing the root cause for chronic pain in these areas (such as strengthening the deep muscles of a weak mid back), will only cause more pain.
What do you suggest should be done instead? My atlas region goes numb whenever I try to lay down and sleep at night
@@sabziWalaDog I'm not an expert, but currently looking to strengthen my weak mid back and shoulder muscles due to a forward head posture and a weak back, as mentioned above - in my case, pain is coming from here.
Check out a youtube channel called Precision Movement and see their videos on back pain (One of them is "Stretching WON’T Fix Forward Head Posture [But THESE exercises will!]".
I am finding them to be helpful.
@@sabziWalaDog U TOO? thought only me was having that. first person I've seen in two years that's also having that issue!!!🙏
@@mcoraln Kjetil Larson -MSK Neurolgy says same in his vids. Strengthen not stretch.
I don't have to stretch my neck.....I was married for 27 years.
How frequently should this be done? Daily?
Beautiful Thank you .Liked and subscribed 🥰🙏
Fantastic exercise...I would always sleep on only the left side for DECADES and it finally caught up with me 20 + years ago and docs would say this and that and would never help
I took this into my own hands as I'm a bit of an exercise nut at this old age😅😅..and was continually trying to find something that works
Finally the chin tuck for 30 sec finally released the nerve that was causing most of the issue.
This exercise helped with relaxing the ligaments in my neck that has been imbalanced all these years.
Balance of the body is key!!
Good stuff. Excellent model.
Very useful. I’m trying to not go to chiropractor and this may keep me away.
These can harm some people. I couldn't watch anymore after she told everyone to press as hard as they could. That's a big no-no. Went to the comments, and sure enough, several were injured from doing this.
This sounds great except for the disruption fir an ad right in the middle of a count!!!
I started Implementing these exercises a few days ago, as I bought a kenko cloud (neck traction device) and its caused alot of dizziness for me.
Why are you doing those in the first place ?
Is this kenko cloud the blue one ? I am considering getting it tbh .
Love that this is real time !
Me too but the ads during the countdowns was kinda disheartening, gotta make that money.
omg that's why my jaw was so tight!! thank you so much!
Your tats are freaking awesome and this was nicely produced video. Thank you for the information.

First let me say, all you videos are excellent. With this particular video, should we be doing these exercises once a day, or can they be done a few times a day. Thanks.
Thank you so much for sharing your kind feedback, Garth! 🙏😍 We really appreciate it! For best results, we recommend repeating these exercises at least once a day for a minimum of 2 mins per stretch. You can also do it a few times a day - the more regularly you do the exercises, the more effective they will be! In our five pillars of practice at the end of this article you can find further tips on how to perform our exercises correctly. 👉 lie-br.com/yt-cm3-atlas We hope this helps!
All the best

I can turn my head left and right without any issues but I still have Atlas/Axis misalignment. My main symptoms are chronic bloating, throat issues - lumpy throat, difficulty swallowing, squeezing throat and upper abdomen, and nervous tension.
Sounds like acid reflux look up lower abdomen breathing and ask chiropractor to push ur stomach back down into place ur too tensed up
Would you consider this muscle energy techniques?
When I click the PDF link nothing happens
What doctor can find this problem?
I have an unstable mass in my right carotid, and my DR says no chiro due to stroke risk.
Do any of these exercises present a similar issue?
Only Atlas Orthogonal, using the Swesat Percussion Instrument can adjust the Atlas perfectly. Doing it manually can only try to align it. If not done perfectly then yiur vertebral arteries will still be strained to some degree, still causing problems. This is fact. I am not only an AO patient of 16 years, but I graduated from a Chiropractic College, and chiros of all methods, (all around the country) have admitted to this being true.
Tnx 1:33 1:33
Thank you so much 🙏🤗🌹
How do I get my other neck vertebrae back proper so I can do this?
I have often noticed when I look upward kicking my chin up i felt an uncomfortable pinch back there, so this is very interesting. I don’t know why I never thought to say that to a chiropractor- that said , I don’t think I want to pull on my head and neck “ as hard as I can” …tense tight muscles don’t like that and the body will rebel !
❤ THIS is awesome Thanks 👍🏾😏
Hi can I do the massage with massage gun? Thank you for the video.
My atlas chiro said do not use a massage gun on the neck as it’s too sensitive and can do damage.
I have many problems with my cervical spine for many years. I’ve been doing the atlas alignment exercises on and off for about 3 months. Should this exercise be done every day?
What is the prsctitioners name and what are her credentials !?
Just wondering 💁♀️ shes great, I use many of these on myself and for my clients already!
Thanks, gonna try it
I can literally feel a hard bump on the right side of my neck up near the back of the skull. Is this what you are addressing in this video?
It does not hurt but i do have some posture issues like uneven hips and rounded shoulders. Recently i have trap pain.
A reply would mean a lot. Thanks.
Yes I do too, I think it’s the atlas bone positioned to one side therefor not aligned. You can go get it tapped to move it back into place
Thank you!!! Bless you!!!
Thank you so freaking much! Thank you genuinely!
Where can I get a foam roll??
Is this safe if you know your atlas is tilted from an injury 30 years ago?
@@jordansupport1923 we always assume responsibility for our own health. nobody will do it for you! u have to decide to go see a professional, u decided if u will pay for treatment or not u decided if u want to get better. U can decide to stay home and do nothing and just get worse or waste away. our health is always in our hands.
@@tjgrafiks i have had an Atlas deviation for the past 20 years , do the exercises but gently DO NOT DO IT TENSELY AT ALL … also i have another technique .
Hi doctor, after doing the second exercises and pushing as hard as i can i now have pain at the base of my skull on the richt side of my head. What should i do to alleviate this ?
