Instructions
Preparation
- Lie supine on mat.
Execution
- Push head into mat and hold position. Relax and repeat.
Comments
- This exercise may be prescribed for functional
forward head posture since it strengthens Splenius without
neck flexion.
The stretch that occurs during complete neck flexion, may exaberate
forward head posture, particularly if neck flexion is held under
load. Neck flexion normally occurs at end of eccentric
portion of dynamic
Splenius exercises.
