technological fever has brought consequences, the so-called <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/IHunch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Text neck<\/em><\/a>. An affectation that many will agree to have suffered: cervical stiffness and pain, headaches, sore backs, dizziness, etc\u2026 caused by bending the neck forward repeatedly and for a long time, to write on our mobiles, tablets and computers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tips_to_prevent_neck_pain\"><\/span>Tips to prevent neck pain<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to <a href=\"https:\/\/corestfitness.com\/en\/activities-and-services\/physiotherapy-and-rehabilitation\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"2429\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">going preventively to our physiotherapist<\/a>, who will assess the causes of your neck pain and treat the ailments suffered, take note of the following advice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Analyze_and_correct_posture\"><\/span>Analyze and correct posture<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Head forward, shoulders slumped, elbows in the air, lower back away from the backrest. It is recommended to keep your back straight, respecting its natural curvature, and place your feet on the floor or on the footrest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Computer_position\"><\/span>Computer position<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Just as it is important to monitor the position of the back, to prevent neck pain it is also essential to properly position the computer on which we are working. It is recommended to place the screen at the height of our face and eyes so that we do not have to make up and down movements and see all the content of the device with ease. In addition, the keyboard has to be located at a distance that allows our arms to remain at a 90 \u00b0 angle so as not to accumulate tension in the shoulders or excess weight in the arms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"To_rest\"><\/span>To rest<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Every 30 minutes of work in front of the computer, it is recommended to rest and do two or three minutes of simple stretching exercises, especially on the back, shoulders, arms and neck. In addition, it is advisable to carry out other practices that favor a correct posture of the back, such as yoga or pilates, a beneficial exercise to relieve neck pain and pain throughout the body, because it helps to stretch and treat muscle stiffness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"And_the_smartphone\"><\/span>And the smartphone?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The medical journal <a href=\"https:\/\/surgicaltechnology.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Surgical Technology International<\/a> has warned that frequently looking at the mobile screen can also be harmful to the spine. The study ensures that the more the head is tilted forward, the more stress is exerted on the spine. The solution to put an end to this ailment is, as with the computer, to acquire a correct position to look at the smartphone, which consists of raising the arm instead of lowering the head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_strengthening_exercises\"><\/span>Do strengthening exercises<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For the treatment of neck pain and to reduce neck pain and prevent recurrence, it is very important to work on strengthening, stabilizing (motor control) and making the area more flexible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Neck_pain_exercises\"><\/span>Neck pain exercises<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We propose some exercises for neck pain with the aim of strengthening.
