Let me share Caroline’s story with you. She’s a paralegal in her late 30’s. She sits at her desk for 10+ hours every day and her job is very stressful.
By the end of the week, especially when she’s preparing for trial, she has a feeling of heaviness and tension under the base of her skull and often times a raging headache, that like a shrink wrap, squeezes her skull.
Her headaches are clearly the result of stress and posture induced neck tension.
Working on a computer slowly forces the shoulders forward, the upper back hunches forward and gets stiff and forces the head to jut out forward.
Our head weighs about 12 lbs and for every inch it drifts forward from neutral posture, it adds another 10 lbs.
Sit at a computer for decades and before you know it the little muscles at the base of your skulls are supporting a 30 lb bowling ball all day every day.
No wonder they get fired up and cause headaches – it’s a warning signal, that something is seriously wrong.
If you have the same condition Caroline is suffering from, you need to make some quick changes before things get worse.
A few things you can do on your own:
1. Switch to a standing desk and correct your posture to remove the root cause of your problem.
2. Loosen up muscles under the base of the skull to control the tension and eliminate the headaches.
3. Start a daily 20 minute routine to work on your posture by improving upper back and neck mobility to make sure you stay on the right track and eliminate the headaches for good (while also preventing future neck and shoulder problems while you’re at it)
If you’re tired of throwing medications at your body to shut it up and wasting time and money constantly seeing health professionals to give you temporary fixes, we need to talk!
You’re the perfect candidate for my short, 3 months online coaching program.
