Wow! Best neck and shoulder stretch ever! // Anna from Sweden
Sometimes I wonder if a 30-minute stretch is really worth it, but when I follow along, I realise that the entirety of the video and the long holds of all the stretches is exactly what works magic. Thank you so much! I was very sore from lifting weights yesterday and this video worked like a miracle. My body feels AMAZING! Thanks again :)
I've been away from yoga for about 15 years so wanted something gentle to bring me back. I found it! Slow, deep, conscious. And the very quiet music in the background is lovely. Enjoy many different videos with you as my body readjusts.
Thank you for this! Being disabled-I had my leg amputated three years ago-and having to move differently than I used to, using different muscles to move, my back and shoulders are always tight and painful. After following you through this practice for the first time, my back already feels looser and less painful.
Youre being so strong!!!
True! Its work! Less stress, relax feel it, increse intense and focus, we will get there. Thank you coach and buddy! ?💛
Namaste 🙏 Jessica 😉
The no rush in between stretching your soft calming voice makes all the difference for me! Thanks, Jessica, you're doing a great job!
My shoulders were burning from sitting for a zoom meeting for six hours today. I feel so much better!!!
So happy to hear that Amie!! Thanks for practicing with me. 🙏
The best upper body stretch yoga class!! I need this almost every day. Thank you very much, Jessica.
Ikuko Patricia Yuasa PhD I’m so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for practicing!
Thank you Jessica. I had a large amount of tension in the front and back of my chest and this routine relieved that tension. May fortune bless you as you have blessed me.
The best neck and shoulder stretch routine I’ve found on RUclips so far!
This class is all I need! My job and hobbies require me to be in front of a desk all day, and these stretches help me release the tension built up during the day. Thank you!
This was wonderful! My husband and I stretch together to a new instructor each day. you are fabulous and very relaxing Thank you
Loved this class for my shoulders, feel like a new person physically and feel so calm mentally. You're still my favorite yoga instructor on youtube after searching for videos for more than 6 years; love that you incorporate new poses so I discover something every video, and make me feel like every class has been a meditation! Thank you!
My neck and shoulders were hurting me, following this class I now feel so much better! As always Jessica, your movements, your soothing voice, your gentle energy - manage to calm me down. Thank you
Loved this so much! I’ve had such a hard time finding a good upper back sequence and this was perfect!
I've been making this practice for a while every morning cause after sleeping my upper body is super tight. Thank you so much for it! :)
Awesome for me as I am a massage therapist constantly bent forward!
The left side of my neck has been so stiff/sore, after practicing it feels less sore! This session also helped open up my chest which has been tight. I appreciate you! 💓
I also have the same problems with the left side of my neck and this gentle class brought a wonderful relief!🙏
this is the class I have been searching for! It hit every tight area of my upper body that needed addressing. I'll be doing this video more often for sure!
This is so soothing, and incredible for my body. I have a shoulder injury that comes and goes and this relieves so much intensity from it. Yoga and rehab 🙏🏼
Had a headache all evening and have been holding so much tension in my neck. So glad you posted this today!
I hope the video helped! Thanks for practicing with me. :)
My tendency to hunch forward has wreaked havoc on my neck and shoulders. I'm working to improve my posture and these stretches targeted just the right places! Thank you so much. The pacing of this video was also perfect.
It is 2024, and I just found this video!!! Oh my gosh, it is heaven sent!! Really helped with my shoulder neck stiffness!!
I have tried a lot of different upper body yoga videos and this one is the only one I have found that actually loosened my shoulder blades and stopped the aching I had after baking today! Thank you for this! ❤🙏
Thanks so much for all your wonderful videos! I had shoulder surgery about 6 months ago and thanks to you and your videos I have been able to work myself up to my normal vinyasa routine!
What a treat! Thank you so very much. These stretches were perfect after a long work day and a tough gym session
I’m so glad you enjoyed the stretches Caryn! 😊
I loved this session. I regularly suffer with migraines which start in the left side of my neck and I'm sure these stretches are going to make such a huge difference. Thanks Jessica !
Thankyou so much. This class was extremely effective for reducing the tension in my neck and shoulders. I have full mobility again!
I love all your routines! this one is perfect for the evening, thank you!
YAAAAAAAS I have been looking for something this effective on my shoulders and chest, without all the warriors and vinyasa style… thank you for this NAMASTE
This practice made me teary today (I store and am trying to release a lot of sadness from my mid back to the base of my head). Jessica, I have been doing a range of your videos over the past month, and I have to tell you, I am so grateful. Your pace, your voice, your guidance is so wonderful. Thank you.
Thank you Jess, this is literally healing :) I'm coming back to this class whenever I get too rusty from sitting at my desk or if I'm overtrained. It always helps. Namaste!
I feel great. My upper body sends gratitude. One of my favourites. Thank you Jess💕🌻🌹🌷🌺🌈❤️🙏
I am also super happy to have found you. Your gentle voice in every class you teach makes a difference. I love your sayings at the end of certain videos to express gratitude and say thank you. Keep this up. Thanks for being Jessica :)
Thank you so much for this class!! I had tears in my eyes at the end because I felt such physical and emotional relieve
Thank you, this was really nice. Enjoyed having a class just focused on shoulders and back. Also like all the alternative positioning suggestions you make throughout!
I’m now gonna do this everyday. My back hasn’t felt this good in so long. I could cry. Thank you.😭
Thank you for this comment. I was debating whether or not to do this today, but this convinced me to give this a try!
This practice helped me to reduce stress and anxiety levels, release some tension from my body and overcome an urge to take drugs. Thank u
Thank you so much! I have been holding a pain on my neck the whole day. I feel perfectly relaxed and comfortable now. I do you sequences every day. Namaste from Argentina
Just discovered you today. The positions and pace were exactly what I needed for my upper back/neck pain. Thank you, I will definitely come back to this practice.
Will be doing this more often. Am feeling more openness than prior.
This class is a huge help with my concussion recovery. No more migraines, YAY!!! Thank you Jessica.
Usually I come into a yoga class with the intention of softening the body and relieving tension, but today the big thing for me was how my mood changed! I came into this class a little mopey after a long day yesterday, but now I feel refreshed and ready to take on the day :)
THANK You Jessica!
i love how calm you are
Exactly what I needed. Been feeling tension in my upper back between my shoulder blades and this helped so much! Thank you Jessica!
I am a flight attendant and after long flights my upper body muscle feels very sore , but after i started practicing yoga watching your videos i am feeling less soreness in my muscles and less stiffness . I am grateful beyond words ✨.
I feel so much lighter after this, thank you so much for showing us these stretches! I had a stiff neck and shoulders, it caused me a lot of pain too, but I feel reborn after this. Definitely worth doing it and saving this exercise for later! ❤️🥰
This has left me feeling so light and open!!! Sensations throughout my body and so much calmness in the mind! Thank you Jessica❤️🔥 For all the online practices i've attempted, accounts ive experimented, I love yours the MOST! You're so gentle, include everyone and their different situations, genuine, and a radiant soul. I love you, thank you!!!
great class!! such a deep nice final stretch! I am loving your channel. Started a 1 year everyday yoga with my husband and you have been our teacher daily for the last 15 days. Thank you so much! Congratulations from Milano!
Thank you, Jessica, i come here having a lot of stress and a very painful neck and shoulders and slowly i feel so relieved thank you to your videos thank you very much so grateful
Wow, I’ve really struggled with tension in my neck today so this was much needed - I was smiling by the time I got half way through because I could just feel all that stress melting away. Thank you!
What a beautiful flow. I loved the last stretch so much, I am naturally flexible and could perform it with binding my hands behind and one feet on the mat/. It literally opened up all the back and shoulder muscles. I love your channel and keep coming back at it. I am grateful for you Jessica and your smile is contagious❣
This was my first yoga class and I feel amazing. Thank you so much Jess :)
I love your restorative yoga flows Jessica. Especially the 30 minute videos which are a perfect length for me to do in the morning!
This really helped alleviate my neck/shoulder pain. I'm so happy I found it. Thank you!
Love coming back to this practice. Please make more of these types of videos for upper back, neck, and shoulder!
You are such a breath of fresh air! This was an amazing class and you are an inspiring teacher. I love your calm demeanor and I love your flow of poses. Thank you so much for your generosity!
Jessica, you've done what no other yoga class has done for me and my bad shoulder!!! Thank you!
I will keep coming back to this wonderful class. Thank you
I am so glad I found this video. So much focus and attention to each pose!
Thank you Jessica, for this wonderful practice! I have recently had a minor whiplash injury - this yoga flow really helped to ease my neck and upper back. You're my favourite online yoga teacher :)
One of the greatest things I’ve done for my body- thank you! Will share:)
This was exactly the class I needed for my super tight shoulders and neck! Thank you so much, I will definitely be revisiting this one again and again.
You are my new fave online yoga teacher. The pacing is just right and you are easy to understand. I had a migraine yesterday and bad back and neck pain. This was exactly what I needed to get back in touch with my body and ease the tension. I work from home full time and just started grad school online full time. I will be revisiting this a lot. The strain of computer work all day is real.
This was so great! It really relieved the tension I was feeling in my neck and shoulders. Thank you so much!
Thanks! I'm warming up to your routines and I feel better at being myself.
this practice is so necessary! thank you 💛💛
I did some gardening yesterday for the first time this season and I definitely felt it when I woke up this morning. This was a great stretch!! Thank you.
Thank you so much Jessica! 😇
Having shoulder pain today and watched this video again - just what was needed! Thank you Jessica!
Thank you so much Jessica I’m so grateful for your channel💗 namaste
I’ve been at odds with my right shoulder for months and this routine gives me some relieve in the pinched area. Thanks dear Jessica 🔝
Wonderful stretches for my left shoulder and neck ache. Thank you so much!
Love how complete this felt for my upper body, and the suggestions to breathe or fix posture came at just the right times. Awesome, thank you!
Thank You Jessica 💪
I’ve been working to increase my back flexibility. This was a nice treat for my spine after all the hard work!🥰
This was the third Upper back/ Neck yoga video I watched today and you hit it out of the park. Thank you so much for this video. My Neck, Upper Back and shoulders feel so SO much better.
Wooowwww! My head feels light after weeks of tension! Perfect pace! Lovely poses! Really helped me to feel better today. Thanks
Thank you!! I broke my leg in a car wreck. I'm normally active, and I can do most of this sitting on the couch with my leg up. Thank you!!!
I really enjoyed your sessions as they’re not too difficult but yet very effective. I feel calm and a general sense of well-being after each session. Thank you for making this possible.
All about the neck and shoulders, mostly seated. Very chill, good after a workout.
Damn girl. This was powerful. Came into the class with a headache and sore shoulders from my anxiety and finishing it sooo much calmer, relaxed and my shoulders are so happy now. Thank you!
I’ve tried this practice a few times to relieve tension headaches and it works every time. As long as I have enough energy to get myself out of bed and to the mat, I can know this will do the trick. Thank you so much for making this available and offering it for free on RUclips, you are a healer!!
Always love to practice with you! Your smile makes me smile, too! Thank you for sharing your time and knowledge. 🙏
Love all your stretching and restorative flows
Ditto on J Ro55....on all points mentioned. Also to add that your voice instructions are calm and direct. Thank you so much for your gift of light.
Thank you so much 🧡 my shoulders were in pain for some days now, and really help me release it. Love your classes! 😊
This was great for my tired mom shoulders and back and my tired surf muscles.
IM SO HAPPY TO HAVE FOUND HER CHANNEL
Keep making videos gal! You have a gift! 🙏🏼
This was so calming and it helped me get relief from my shoulder and upper back pain . So much love to you ❤️ thank you so so much !!
Great class, thank you Jessica!!
Oh my, I’ve done most of these stretches before. But for some reason, in this flow you have eased my chronic pain!! Definitely coming back to this everyday ❤️
Thank you, Jessica. You are someone I will return to ease the physical pain which comes with writing. Your teaching manner reminds me of the old days when yoga first came to this country. No whooplala, but peace and love.
That was incredible...all the tension has released. Thank you x
I am a music teacher, always sitting at a piano and have so much tension in these areas. I do this video daily and it helps the most from any other video I’ve come across (for neck/shoulders)
Thank you!!❤
This works wonders. Thank you. Namaste
Awesome! I feel so much better now. Thanks Jessica!!
i feel so fresh following these instructions and doing yoga every time i see your tutorials.. I feel the healing in my body slowly after every session!! Keep up the good work Jessica!! :) you are amazing :)
Perfect class!!
