Robert Wolf same here I thank god I found this video. Gone to dr with no help at all. This is the first time I’ve heard of all this an has helped so much.
This is just superb, been searching for "fatigue and drowsiness" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Qiyia Ziyichael Booster - (just google it ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my brother in law got amazing success with it.
This is glorious, I been tryin to find out about "reason of fatigue and tiredness" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Qiyia Ziyichael Booster - (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my brother in law got excellent success with it.
I'm with you Robert. I just found this, and I'm praying it helps (it seems to have slightly relieved some pressure so far). Orthopedic surgeon said: 1.) "You have these, a,b,c,d.... problems/subluxations, etc"; 2.) "It's just a minor thing"; [and in response to how aweful I'd been feeling since the past injury(s) which started it all]: 3.) "You'll never feel like you did when you were 15 again" (I was 19 at the time); and 4.) "I'll recommend a psychiatrist..." oh I almost forgot: 5.) "Don't ever use a chiropractor!" This was at a big spine care center in Dallas. The only short periods of relief I've ever had have been a result of the few short packages of chiropractor visits I could afford and exercises I have lerned from them. There was a while there when I might have hit that guy for delaying my actual treatment with such a blatant, reactive response, refusing to elaborate on why he felt that way, ie. "I don't feel the risks are worth the results I believe to be placebo in nature", etc...Instead practically scolding me for even mentioning the word, Chiropractor. I paid him alot of money through my last month's of insurance before the ACA finally banned the only insurance policy I could afford. ....scaring me away from using that insurance for any other trestments, and costing me years of my life... I thank this man for posting this video, however. I really could never express the appreciation I have towards people like this who truly want to help and don't just settle for you surviving with the discomfort (since it's you and not them feeling it). Thanks again Mr MotivationalDoc And best wishes to all of you guys here.
Oh, Doctor Mandell, you are a gift to this world. I can’t believe how much mobility I have in my neck right after performing this. I’ve always wanted upper cervical chiropractic work, as I believe many of my problems stem from it, but am not in a position to afford it at the moment. I will be doing this, along with your massage techniques, for my tmj/tinnitus and vertigo. Thank you, from my heart.
Iwish you the best and it is expesnisve. I can attest upper cervical chiro have done alot of good for me with diziness, vertigo, ringing in ear,brain fog, eye sensitivity and anxiety.
God bless you, Dr. Mandell. You teach me so many pain relieving exercises bringing new life into my old age (74). I thoroughly enjoy doing these exercises every day and look forward to a new set daily.
The first stretched worked to get rid of a major migraine that could have lasted days and left me unable to do anything. Thank you so much for what you do for us.
I have been struggling with vertigo, tinnitus, headaches, vision problems and the anxiety that comes from it all for over a year now. I've had lots of testing done to try to get to the bottom of why it's all happening, only to get no real answers. I have come across these videos before but never really watched them. They occasionally appear in my feeds on social media sites, so I figured I would give these excercises a try. I really hope that they help because all the problems that I'm having are getting to be too much to bear at times, and I just want my life to be normal again!
You need to see an upper cervical Chiro, there is a tool they use to tap the atlas back in place with a special tool. Ask around. It takes many visits to get the muscle to hold in place after the adjustments.
I completely get you I been having anxiety after my neck injury and I sometimes feel like I’ll be stuck like this forever and it doesn’t help but we will get through this. Just to feel normal again
What a kind generous man you are sharing all the information as you do …..that must have cost you hours and hours of your own time and energy studying I’ve watched and used many of your amazing videos and benefited so very much from them Thank you so much x
5 years into fatigue, dizziness, eye problems, body sensations(legs arms and back) headaches, TMJ etc...no one can provide answers except to say "depression" when I have x rays and MRIs showing problems in these areas mentioned in the video.
Well, I have viewed several of your videos and now have subscribed as I feel that, at last, I might be able to get back to feeling myself again. I am 70 years old and about 1 1/2 years ago I started to feel unbalanced. I have been to several doctors including ENT's and have had three MRI's. And, this feeling has gotten worse as time has gone on. I realized a few months ago that my posture, while sitting at my desk, that I do a lot of, was very bad and I am now working changing that. I still suffer from the unbalanced feeling and pain in the neck region, but with the improved posture and your exercises, I have some hope again. Thanks for the inspiration.
I did as you suggested, Acidgreen, and my research indicates that Eagle Syndrome is more associated with the jaw and I have no issues in that area. I truly am of the impression that most of my issues are from my very bad posture while sitting at my desk and that I am correcting.
ok to get a clearer picture you can check the optg x-ray with your dentist. check this pic www.livingwitheagle.org/uploads/ben_eagle/original/1X/9b5f23441504741db9da9a23135ec7234aaadfef.jpg no its not only the jaw, this stuff can irritate different structures as nerves, blood vessels and muscles sometimes all sometimes only one of it. the first step to clear it out is the optg x-ray. hopefully you dont have it but it should be cleared out because there is a muscle that is "connected" to the atlas axis complex, its the musculus digastricus. after its cleared out i would check out all other options eg meridian thai massage balancing. they know what they are doing. chiropractics in this region only after correct x-rays or CT. let a good physio therapist (they are better than most docs) check your full body - posture. cheers
Thanks for the input. I have an appointment with my dentist next month and will discuss the possibility of Eagle Syndrome and the OPTG x-ray. I know I have a posture issue with head forward and I am working on that. The Eagle Syndrome concept may be part of it also and I will check that out as well.
hopefully he knows what it is... most docs dont know this thematic. best way check the optg yourself its easy as in the link from before. get well soon. have a nice day
Thank you Dr. Mandell I will try these gently and carefully and update you on my progress. I has been such a blessing to have a chiropractors support over these last 4 years. I think my Dr might not specialize in cervical adjustment or cervical care because he never tells me what I could do outside of adjustments to help myself but you give these free insights. thank you very much for your kind heart. And showing God's love to people like me who are looking for answers when it comes to cervical spine challenges.
Hi, Dr Mandell. It’s the first time I try this particular exercise and two others of yours and it’s amazing how helpful they are to relieve my neck pain. Impressive. On this one, I couldn’t feel the first and second vertebrates, yet only doing the stretch without pressing them, made a huge difference for my pain. Thank you so much for sharing with the world your precious knowledge . God bless you. Kind regards from Brazil.
Hi. Im 32 years old and I have minimal dorsal , medial disc hernia c5-c6 , already 2 years. I have pain every day. Its better but nothing really helps for a long time. The most popular pop up pain comes from caring groceries and its always pain afterwords in the right neck muscle which connects to the head. Im trying to do some streching at home and your videos are my life savers. Now I did atlas steching and its like getting present on Xmas eve. It helps. Thank u so much for sharing your skills. Greetings from Sweden.
Im 24, and have lumbar scoliosis from what as far as they know 13 either born with it or through puberty and I think I damaged my atlas and/or axis whilst at work not bending my knees whilst loading a heavy glass tray into a awkwardly positioned washer and turning my neck to talk to a customer I heard the whole side crunch. The hospital told me it was all in my head whilst I was convinced I had done something to my nerves immediately afterwards I was even throwing my arm into ice to stop the pain and loss of co-ordination. Since then Ive been plagued since by shoulder, jaw, neck and inner ear problems on one side and knee, ankle and hip pain the other. Im not lying your videos have actually saved my life ive contempated suicide from the pain because its been constant and these techniques for adjusting are amazing. I can already feel such a difference I actually cant believe it im so glad I came across your channel. Thank you so, so, so much!
I am just shy of four months out from having my C6-C7 fused, C5-C6 had previously auto fused and a replacement disc at C4-C5. I found your other video on the atlas and this just came up today. Since surgery my neck has greatly improved but it is still tight and a little cranky. I did just a coulple of these stretches and it's an immediate improvement. I know that it will now be part of my stretching routine!
This is what feels like my problem area and I'm going to start doing that. I've been doing all kinds of stretches and pulling, just going by what feels good, but will try focusing on this one and see what happens. Wow, such an amazing design by our Mighty Creator. Blows my mind how some people think we just randomly, accidentally came together...
Hi Dr Mandell. I am really getting a lot of invaluable insight into my own compromised cervical curve from your clear instruction videos...and absolutely loved seeing the lit up ramifications which for too long I have only been able to experience and (try to) imagine.
I think this helped! I used a telescoping pole trimmer for several hours last week, with the pole fully extended for several hours. I was holding it up over my head and craning my neck, looking straight up, while trying to get to the high branches on a row of oaks. Ever since, my ‘neck bolt’ feels like it’s too tight and I have burning tension in my neck and a headache that feels like broken glass from the base of my skull to right behind my eyeballs. There’s pressure in my head, too. I saw my chiropractor 3 days ago, but that didn’t fix it. I tried some of your ‘atlas only’ techniques, but they didn’t help, so I’m convinced I also have a problem with my axis, since I’ve gotten a bit of relief from this exercise. Thank you so much for all you do!
Did the stretch while watching this sitting down and heard little cracks, don't know if that's good but I liked it. Did the stretch while laying my upper back on an exercise ball and letting my head hang and felt deeper cracks where the cervical and thoracic spine connect and loved it.
Be careful. If you feel or hear cracking it's discs without cartilage. I had this and had to have fushion. Now I have it again. Seeing a neurosurgeon again. Better have insurance. 10,000.00 for surgery. Hospital stay
Thank you for your videos! They have been very helpful! I am currently working on my forward posture, which has been causing me a lot of problems. Thank you for the wonderful work you have been doing!
Thank you Doc..Whiplash January 1988, the doctor showed me the arthritis in the x ray, plus bulging disc C 5 & 6..Disability retired 25 years and constant therapy the entire time.Moved to Thailand due to couldn't afford therapy and connected with great doctors and therapist here..Videos like this help me better understand my condition and this exercise was an amazing addition..The arthritis still wakes me here at 1 AM frequently and best those days if i just lay down till it's pass's..
jeff robinson what doctors have you connected with in Thailand? Suffering from cervical spinal stenosis and moderate to severe spinal cord compression. ACDF IS THIS COMING TUESDAY 😭
You are so impressive Dr Mandell. A truly original thinker, and helping so many of us with your amazing discoveries and insights. Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity. I'm grateful beyond words.
I can't believe how much this video helrciseped me. This technique worked for me. My atlas was seized up on the right side, and it is now freed up after doing this exercise for the last couple of days. Thanks very much.
Nice, that really helped me figure out how to palpate for the Atlas, and to my surprise, it was a bit tender; most of the time for me, my neck is so tight, and has such adhesions, that it feels a bit numb, and like nothing really works, but with this, it actually helped me feel the landmarks more, and the muscles surrounding.
I just realized this week, that my atlas is all twisted, just as you said, I feel like my head is on crooked. I pulled it out of whack some how, and it is really hurting me. and causing nerve pain, my jaw is off balance when I eat. It cracks on one side, just crooked, my chiro is trying to fix so grateful to have found this. thanks.
Yes! Same here honey I never knew it was this bone causing so many problems as well! Yes I have ibs as well do you get bloated as well is there a way I can contact you we have a lot in common
Same here, the anxiety/pain is killing me now so Im desperate to watch this video. Has this exercise helped? I've been doing yoga for the neck/shoulders for a month now but no success yet. Just minor alleviation
Help! I would feel so grateful for a response. I'm desparate and you're incredibly awesome. I've just recently had a bunch of xrays due to extreme pain... Straight neck (no curve) and functional scoliosis curve in my spine. Most likely due to inactivity and nerve pain on one side of lower back. Muscles extremly weak/atrophy. There is so much nerve pain.. especially in the mornings :( All I want to know is who is the best person to see/what to start with. Chiropractic adjustments? Physiotherapy strengthening? I'm just scared. I'm only 24 and last 8 months have been hell. It's confusing with all of the information out there. Keep up the great work that you do for everyone here. x
Hello Dr Mandell. I've been watching your videos suffering in pain. My 13yo daughter also has cervical issues. I decided to look your practice up and discovered you are in Miami. We live in Davie. I will be calling to make an appointment. Thank you for your videos.
Thank you so much doctor, you helped me a lot even i dont understand every thing you said, I paid a lot of money for doctors here and they just tradning unfortunately , I which that i can see you one day to thank you personally
My hubby and I are seeing a NUCCA chiropractor. I have severe stenosis at L3-4 and down with severe sciatica in both legs. My hubby gets migraines. I still have a way to go but in general I'm feeling better. My neck is looser and my TMJ is better. The tinnitus is still there but I hope to improve a lot over the summer. Thank you for your videos.
Hi doc shortness of breath squeezing under skull nauseous slept head in downward position now I'm dying can't believe how fragile I love this guys voice
love these video now I understand the why.I have been laying in bed with folded pillows under my head and been getting headaches my arms are fallen asleep lot of discomfort.thankfully
Hey doc, hey that lighted up board is amazing that's really cool. I have trouble with my Atlas a lot when I go to see the chiropractor they'll tell me that it's stuck they have a hard time adjusting it I'll be trying this exercise I've been watching your videos for many years now. Thanks for all you do
Wow! What a great light board of the spine. My wife sleeps with her head innearly a 90 degree angle she has many of the issues that you explained when pushing the c1-c6 light board buttons.
I've had physical therapy (PT) for this area and it did not make any difference. I will try these new techniques from the video. Even though I have an ergonomic work station I know that this area bothers me from sitting at a computer all day. I get up and move around every 15 minutes, but I can't stand and work for too long due to a lower body disability. Every day I experience headaches in the lower part of the back of my head, and I have tightness and pain in my shoulders and back. I've had multiple PT sessions for these issues and I work out on a regular basis, yet the pain still exists. Now I'm taking meds for the pain, and I want to get off them asap. I've also had MRI's and despite some degenerative areas everything else was normal.
When you pushed on the 5th - my issue is supposed to be C6 and C7 - I feel nerve pain from my neck to my baby fingers - I get shocks in both wrists when I grab things and manipulate them - when I bend the wrists I get shocks - It has been 18 years and they can't fix it - Each new doctor I get does a nerve conduction test - I have had 6 of those painful tests. They give me grip strength tests. They have no clue. I know it isn't my wrists but my neck and workman's comp would not address my neck. Oh - I got 2 carpel tunnel releases - which made it worse...weaker.
Gee!! This is another keep sake video for me, I can certainly relate to my symptoms on this video also I have a few must do’s to work on as the huge population does, I’m extremely grateful for dr Mandell for his work on our desperate help, many many thanks dr🙏
Dr Mandell, you do amazing work, with amazing videos. Some of the exercises are really helpful. However, you focus mostly on the cervical region. Do you know any exercises that can improve function in the 5th vertebrae, also in the middle of the spine between the shoulder blades? These affect, like you said, the neck glands and the stomach, respectively. Please, this would be very useful.
Dr Mandell, first of all thanks for posting your videos and educating and helping masses. I have been suffering from a right neck muscle spasm for the last 10 months caused while playing table tennis. It is causing me lower back issues alongwith sleep disorders. I wish you could help me. I suspect I have. AA and AO issues primarily. Been to docs, physios but nobody has been able to resolve my neck spasm. Please help me. I am based out of India.
Good morning doc! I have bad posture that's why my neck pain can't be cured. It's almost 9 months I already.. I even go Therapy and chiropractor twice. My chiropractor advice me to go therapy 10 times then back to chiropractor every two day. But because of lack of money to go chiropractor . Still I eel my neck pain. But with the help of your videos it relieved my pain... my problem with my neck pain if I can't control my bad posture. Can I use posture brace ? So my body posture correct.. thank u door for videos,,god bless u always...
im a grown Man Crying Dude this video saved me i was in complete pain Getting suicidal thoughts You should definitely be a Marvel Character

check if you maybe have an eagle syndrome. this mimics atlas axis problems... and unbalanced feeling

just did this, my neck feels so loose and head so light after it. Will do it daily for continued results! thanks for the video

Thank you Doc..Whiplash January 1988, the doctor showed me the arthritis in the x ray, plus bulging disc C 5 & 6..Disability retired 25 years and constant therapy the entire time.Moved to Thailand due to couldn't afford therapy and connected with great doctors and therapist here..Videos like this help me better understand my condition and this exercise was an amazing addition..The arthritis still wakes me here at 1 AM frequently and best those days if i just lay down till it's pass's..
jeff robinson what doctors have you connected with in Thailand? Suffering from cervical spinal stenosis and moderate to severe spinal cord compression. ACDF IS THIS COMING TUESDAY 😭
This was amazing. Thank you for all you do sir. 👏🏾🙏🏽🙏🏽
You are so impressive Dr Mandell. A truly original thinker, and helping so many of us with your amazing discoveries and insights. Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity. I'm grateful beyond words.
Thank you I am a massage therapist who had forgotten this wonderful stretch 🥰🌼
I can't believe how much this video helrciseped me. This technique worked for me. My atlas was seized up on the right side, and it is now freed up after doing this exercise for the last couple of days. Thanks very much.
THIS HAS HELPED ME TREMENDOUSLY! Thank you!!
Youre the best Doctor in show and tell of what it means to be healthy
Nice, that really helped me figure out how to palpate for the Atlas, and to my surprise, it was a bit tender; most of the time for me, my neck is so tight, and has such adhesions, that it feels a bit numb, and like nothing really works, but with this, it actually helped me feel the landmarks more, and the muscles surrounding.

Just doing this once felt amazeballs!! Thank you Doc!!!
It really works!
Wish you all the best. Doctor
I just realized this week, that my atlas is all twisted, just as you said, I feel like my head is on crooked. I pulled it out of whack some how, and it is really hurting me. and causing nerve pain, my jaw is off balance when I eat. It cracks on one side, just crooked, my chiro is trying to fix so grateful to have found this. thanks.
Thank you so much.. I actually feel more energy flow through the first two vertebrae!!!
immense blessings, Dr. Mandell
This atlas bone really effects the whole dang nervous system I know cause mines out of place bad causing me major anxiety attacks
Mine has set off my whole nervous system, constant headache, ibs, cracking, joint pain, fatigue it's insane!
Yes! Same here honey I never knew it was this bone causing so many problems as well! Yes I have ibs as well do you get bloated as well is there a way I can contact you we have a lot in common
Same here, the anxiety/pain is killing me now so Im desperate to watch this video. Has this exercise helped? I've been doing yoga for the neck/shoulders for a month now but no success yet. Just minor alleviation
Memory Cloud what are your symptoms?
Beth, after you fixed, you feel better?
I did the exercise and I felt better thank you Dr Mandell God bless you
Help! I would feel so grateful for a response. I'm desparate and you're incredibly awesome. I've just recently had a bunch of xrays due to extreme pain... Straight neck (no curve) and functional scoliosis curve in my spine. Most likely due to inactivity and nerve pain on one side of lower back. Muscles extremly weak/atrophy. There is so much nerve pain.. especially in the mornings :( All I want to know is who is the best person to see/what to start with. Chiropractic adjustments? Physiotherapy strengthening? I'm just scared. I'm only 24 and last 8 months have been hell. It's confusing with all of the information out there. Keep up the great work that you do for everyone here. x
Hello Dr Mandell. I've been watching your videos suffering in pain. My 13yo daughter also has cervical issues. I decided to look your practice up and discovered you are in Miami. We live in Davie. I will be calling to make an appointment. Thank you for your videos.
God bless you Dr. Alan. Excellent one and got immediate relief. Thanks a lot.
You share from your heart Doctor!!and that's why your precious advices are helping so many people!!God bless you!!
A friend did this massage technique on me and right away I felt all the pressure in my head disappear . Blessings Dr 🙏
Thank you so much doctor, you helped me a lot even i dont understand every thing you said, I paid a lot of money for doctors here and they just tradning unfortunately , I which that i can see you one day to thank you personally
My hubby and I are seeing a NUCCA chiropractor. I have severe stenosis at L3-4 and down with severe sciatica in both legs. My hubby gets migraines. I still have a way to go but in general I'm feeling better. My neck is looser and my TMJ is better. The tinnitus is still there but I hope to improve a lot over the summer. Thank you for your videos.
junbug1029, does your husband sit in front of a computer most of the day at work? I also experience the headaches.
You are a great Doctor , thanks a lot for releasing our pain. God bless you to live long and serve society.
Truly hope these exercises work so I can serve society.
How are things now
Thks for the great video , Dr Mandell.
I'm engaging with your atlas series now. Really feels great. Getting releases. Thank you so much for the wonderful work you do.
This man is awesome.. I did another technique of his and my neck pain and headaches went away in just a few minutes 🙌🏿🙌🏿
What technique?
Hi doc shortness of breath squeezing under skull nauseous slept head in downward position now I'm dying can't believe how fragile I love this guys voice
love these video now I understand the why.I have been laying in bed with folded pillows under my head and been getting headaches my arms are fallen asleep lot of discomfort.thankfully
Hey doc, hey that lighted up board is amazing that's really cool. I have trouble with my Atlas a lot when I go to see the chiropractor they'll tell me that it's stuck they have a hard time adjusting it I'll be trying this exercise I've been watching your videos for many years now. Thanks for all you do
Wow! What a great light board of the spine. My wife sleeps with her head innearly a 90 degree angle she has many of the issues that you explained when pushing the c1-c6 light board buttons.
Thanks alot doctor, your videos are amazing and really helpful to many many people, God bless
The legend 🙌 💙
This exercise has really helped with neck pain from forward head posture.
I've had physical therapy (PT) for this area and it did not make any difference. I will try these new techniques from the video. Even though I have an ergonomic work station I know that this area bothers me from sitting at a computer all day. I get up and move around every 15 minutes, but I can't stand and work for too long due to a lower body disability. Every day I experience headaches in the lower part of the back of my head, and I have tightness and pain in my shoulders and back. I've had multiple PT sessions for these issues and I work out on a regular basis, yet the pain still exists. Now I'm taking meds for the pain, and I want to get off them asap. I've also had MRI's and despite some degenerative areas everything else was normal.
Great, I look forward to watch your Videos , Thank You !
Thank you very much for your help. ...
When you pushed on the 5th - my issue is supposed to be C6 and C7 - I feel nerve pain from my neck to my baby fingers - I get shocks in both wrists when I grab things and manipulate them - when I bend the wrists I get shocks - It has been 18 years and they can't fix it - Each new doctor I get does a nerve conduction test - I have had 6 of those painful tests. They give me grip strength tests. They have no clue. I know it isn't my wrists but my neck and workman's comp would not address my neck. Oh - I got 2 carpel tunnel releases - which made it worse...weaker.
Gee!! This is another keep sake video for me, I can certainly relate to my symptoms on this video also I have a few must do’s to work on as the huge population does, I’m extremely grateful for dr Mandell for his work on our desperate help, many many thanks dr🙏
This is excellent! i never knew about this.
Super diagram with lights, very explanatory. Thankyou. Would be a great board game 😁
This stretch made it easier to do my other posture exersizes. Thank you.
Thanks for this video -I will do this exercise everyday ~!
Immediately felt better! Thank you!
Dr Mandell, you do amazing work, with amazing videos. Some of the exercises are really helpful. However, you focus mostly on the cervical region. Do you know any exercises that can improve function in the 5th vertebrae, also in the middle of the spine between the shoulder blades? These affect, like you said, the neck glands and the stomach, respectively. Please, this would be very useful.
Awesome information and advice
Thank you sir, very informative and helpful video. It helped relieve me alot.
Dr Mandell, first of all thanks for posting your videos and educating and helping masses. I have been suffering from a right neck muscle spasm for the last 10 months caused while playing table tennis. It is causing me lower back issues alongwith sleep disorders. I wish you could help me. I suspect I have. AA and AO issues primarily. Been to docs, physios but nobody has been able to resolve my neck spasm. Please help me. I am based out of India.
Thank you very much, doctor

That button board is so cool!!

I have so much tension in my neck that I can't find the spots you refer to in this video. Any suggestions?
