What do you do to relax is there any techniques to relaxation. have not had my surgery yet and my head ad neck and shoulders are horrible... Just wondered if you all had suggestions. I love that i have a handicap shower for my father i sit on his built in bench and let the water just flow. Any others

Hi..we do daily threads and one was on relaxation tips...use the search this community feature( top right)... to look st the older threads for some of the ideas  on there.


As for me, I like to get as warm as possible, being cold causes more pain...so a good warm soak...low lights, candles and a soft scent...and my fav music......this helps me....

Hi,
The one and only thing that I learned from a PT that actually helped instead of hurt was to lie flat on the floor, bed etc.  Press your head slightly down into to the floor, the movement should be really slight.  hold for a count of ten and then do ten times.  

I hope this helps.
