WOW! THIS SIMPLE LITTLE 30 DEGREE ANGLE SHOULDER SHRUG HAD IMMEDIATE IMPACT!!! I got a really tight neck, and neck pain. Doing all kinds of different exercises to strengthen the upper back, but I haven't found a way to get rid of the upper trap knots until this. Now I just need to lengthen and unlock some of my neck muscles.
Making sense is not an important concept. Blood letting made perfect sense for centuries but is wrong. You need high-quality evidence via trials. So stop being stupid
Been dealing with a horrible upper trapezius contracture since yesterday and a terribly stiff neck - couldn't sleep last night: tried muscle relaxers, hot/cold therapy, everything I could think of and nothing helped. These simple exercises and engaging my upper trap muscles have made pain definitely more tolerable and restored my neck mobility to about 60% of its usual range (it was at 10% before trying this video). Really good.
Hopefully, your pain is gone by the time you read this. I recently got horrible neck pain, and this video by two physical therapists helped me sooo much: "How to Get Rid of Neck Pain From Sleeping Wrong" by RUclipsrs "Bob & Brad." Hope you feel better!
This video has given me my life back ❤🙏🏼. My shoulder pain has virtually disappeared and if it comes back I know why and I can fix it. I am beyond grateful
I'm a massage therapist and this helps a LOT because yes many clients want work done here and I don't want to be causing more trauma. Definitely learning more on weakness of muscles and need for strengthening than just massage. The exercises are amazing. Love this Content!!
I love the scientific explanation based on actual research evidence. I'm a musician and i had a terrible whiplash last year and still suffering from really bad trap pain. I'm going to do these exercises and i really hope it helps. Most comprehensive video i've seen so far!
"If you don't move your muscles, it will get weak. Weak muscles will get easily overworked, which can lead to changes in collagen fibers. With the change, muscle function gets weaker again. Weaker muscles get overworked again, its a vicious cycle." --- thank you for the very enlightening statement.
Subbed. Very very high quality information regarding neck pain, upper back pain (especially due to desk work) and fixing the root causes. Thank you Jason!
This sounds about right, I've been going to Chiropractor due to neck issues and trap tightness and referred pain, this definitely makes sense I knew neck and traps are the cause to my issue because at times it does give me nausea dizziness from just my right side of my body neck is where it's mainly coming from and my traps, thank you for this information it's very helpful🙏
Just woke up today with a strong ache on my right trap and neck area, the cause was probably from yesterday's exercise session. Thanks to this video, I was able to relieve some pain! Thank you Jason!
This is good stuff. Thank you! I love when I watch a video like this and by the end of it I already have less pain due to trying out what's described here.
Mr. Physio could you make a video with exercises for lower-mid traps? Btw, after doing exercises from a few videos from your channel chronic pain between my shoulders went away. Chiropractic adjustments, physiotherapy, stretching and massage helped only temporarily. Thank you very much
Wow i have been having trap pain for 2 weeks, others tell me stretch, so i stretch and rest. This video is so helpful that we have to prevent the problem.
good point. Haven't work out in a while, guess my traps got weak. Played pickled ball pretty hard for a few days and have the stiffest neck I've ever had. This is giving me relief, Ill keep doing it. And I should start deadlifting again to get the trap muscle built. I'm missing the grip strength too anyways.
Hello doctor. It would be a great help if you help me to solve my problem. I have pain on my feet. Most probably under superior extensor retinculum. It may be tendonitis or someting got from running. When i rest for couple of days it stops hurting. If walk fast it comes again on both feet. I have visited many doctors, i didnt got any result. Recently i watch your video on thumb pain . How to massage muscles to release the pain. I think there is similarities between these two problem. Could please make a video on it.
Thank you so much. I have had pain in my neck, shoulders, and upper back since the pandemic started. Mostly due to working from home now and horrible posture. I've been working on strength training. Stretching and cracking my neck never provides a long term solution.
I have a clarification question. When we do the normal daily movements with arms at 30 degrees, should we also be lifting the shoulders in a shrug or should the shoulders be relaxed?
gracias estos ejercicios me ayudaron mucho :), i am a Amateur fighter(muay thai - kickboxing) and i have this pain during the last year with the exercise i really gotrelax :)
if I do all these exercises...also the stretch and activation of. musculus supraspinatus...should I also tilt my scapula blades and elevate my shoulders ALWAYS a little bit?
My scapula is intrarotated, weak and overused trap, shoulder instability, difficult to exercise my trapezius on side. Should I just continue consistently and will it get improve?
I hypertrophied my left trap only causing my head to pull to the left and wobble. It's been approx 2 years...it gets better then I find it can easily set it off and my head wants to pull left. I have been to physio and a neurologist... they suggest meds and dry needling. It's not working. Does anyone have any ideas of how I can help myself?
One question tho, if the muscle is overworked already, why will more work/exercise actually make it stronger? It does seem like its working when other strretches didnt, but that might just be the more agressive stretching with resistance.
Thanks so much for making this!!! I can't wait to try it. I couldnt use my right arm for 2 and a half years, now my shoulder hurts everyday. Even when im jogging my shoulder hurts around the shoulder blade and where muscles join around the arm. My heads been getting pulled to the right too causing neck pain. I'll update my comment if this works! It makes total sense. Thanks again!!
Fix your infraspinatus muscle, do the sleeperstretch 4 times a week and hold the stretch 30 sec or longer 3 times. The stretch can be painfull (sharp pain in your front shoulder) but must not feel uncomfterble that you cant finish the stretch, so a 6 out of 10. After the stretch you can feel a bit of pain but this is normal. Do this for at least four weeks or longer! The patience will reward you.
After lateral neck streching done by a physiotherapist, my right side upper back become unstable like it is moving on its own which affecting my neck also on movement but there is no pain. But when i walk i feel my right upper back is like floating on my body which feels unstable and heavy like its dead but i can lift heavy objects i have no weakness. What is the problem. I am suffering from 2 years now . I don't what's going wrong in Scapula or upper trapezius

Out of every doctor I've ever heard you make the most sense
That’s kinda racist
Making sense is not an important concept. Blood letting made perfect sense for centuries but is wrong. You need high-quality evidence via trials. So stop being stupid
this guy is really smart and understands the body or muscle dynamics. Really insightful
Couldn’t agree more

Yes! Tremendous. Safely strengthening the muscle is key.
Thank you very much doctor!
Wow true knowledge this is and misconceptions are cleared in this video.
Playing guitar really altered my trapezius, making my chest steer to the left subconsciously.

Thanks!
Thank you
good exercises. i have had tight (always activated) trapezius for 2+ years, and radiculopathy. the shrugs with head backwards helped most
Very good. Thanks
Hi! Could you please link serratus anterior and low traps exercises? Thanks!!!
Best solution, i got what i wanted yo hear
this is very good
good point. Haven't work out in a while, guess my traps got weak. Played pickled ball pretty hard for a few days and have the stiffest neck I've ever had. This is giving me relief, Ill keep doing it. And I should start deadlifting again to get the trap muscle built. I'm missing the grip strength too anyways.
totally agree, that's pity a lot of physio teach opposite.
Bravo !
You are really THE BEST
Et en plus pour une fois il y a même les sous titres en français !
Wow.. U r amazing
Thank you so much.. you made me realize I have been wasting too much time foam rolling & stretching.. & need to do these exercises..😎🙏💫
와우 선생뉨 영어로 말씀하시니까 더 멋지시네여..
Please I have a question. What whould you recommend for activation for deep flexor neck muscles ?thank You
Outstanding presentation! So very clear and helpful!

Saving to use.....thank you 🙏
Your vid on eliminating phlegm brought me here
Subbed

:)
Thanku ..mid trepezies tightness?
What if i have pain on traps because of high intensity exercises? Do i have to lower the intensity and try these exercises you suggest?
if I do all these exercises...also the stretch and activation of. musculus supraspinatus...should I also tilt my scapula blades and elevate my shoulders ALWAYS a little bit?
Do you have anything for the jaw ?
My scapula is intrarotated, weak and overused trap, shoulder instability, difficult to exercise my trapezius on side. Should I just continue consistently and will it get improve?
If I have a big muscle knot in my upper trapezius will these exercises make it worse?
Hi Dr, will these help with cervicogenic headaches as well. Do you have a video on cervicogenic headaches. I need help please.
What about lower and mid traps strengthening? They are usually weak and the upper gets dominant and also could be weak.
Can i have one side traps pain (left) ?
that stretch is so good!
I would like to see active exercises for trapezius....eccentric!! pleaes!
Is swimming a good exercise to stimulate those muscles?
This makes total sense. I stretched for 2 days and made my pain worse. 🤦🏽♂️
I hypertrophied my left trap only causing my head to pull to the left and wobble. It's been approx 2 years...it gets better then I find it can easily set it off and my head wants to pull left. I have been to physio and a neurologist... they suggest meds and dry needling. It's not working. Does anyone have any ideas of how I can help myself?
Yes I always get it sore and tight and I try stretching but it don’t help at all.
One question tho, if the muscle is overworked already, why will more work/exercise actually make it stronger?
It does seem like its working when other strretches didnt, but that might just be the more agressive stretching with resistance.

I have muscle imbalance chronic. I can’t do non of those stretches 😢 gives me sprain and spasm.
Man, I can hadly look to the left let alone to the right, been 2 days i suffer from this 😢
@mrphysio any tips for sleeping with tight traps?
You will benefit from the class 'text neck/rounded shoulders' in my website -> mrphysio.net
I woke up with a swollen right trapezius and stretching exercises looked suspicious to me, it did hurt. Good tips.
Hi i woke up with a sore upper trap too. What did you do to fix it?
@@adamtheamazing4411 I can't even remember this now but I think rest was all I needed in this case.
Where is the lower trapezius video?
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
