SELF-OCCIPITAL DECOMPRESSION: FAST RELIEF FOR NECK SUFFERERS - (Discovered by Dr Alan Mandell, DC)

- Опубликовано: 1 окт 2019
- Here is an excellent self-decompression technique that I would like to share. We will use simple biomechanics using our hands and extending our head. This will release adhesions/scar tissue and restore mobility in the suboccipital/upper neck region. When mobility is restored proper nerve function will return helping the body repair and heal.
Please share this with your friends and family. Wishing you and your loved ones many Blessings! ❤️😊🙏 Dr M

Please leave your reviews if you wouldn't mind taking the time. Thank you.
When you get to the point of extension against your hands/contact, you'll want to apply upward firm pressure in the suboccipital region. Do not continue extending backwards at that point.
motivationaldoc What do you think about the Atlas Orthogonal Technique? I'm going to a chiropractor next week for a consultation and probably treatment with this technique. I have 2 bulging cervical discs, 2 bulging lumbar discs, TMD, and pain in the occipital area with headaches. I've gone to 3 different chiropractors and physical therapists which did not help me. Thank you for your videos. I have been doing all of the exercises you have recommended.
I always like your videos. I use the spine exercises couple times a week. . Years ago hip exercise help put it back in place now only slit pain every now and then. Before had pain 2 years every day . Thanks for your videos and advice
Is this safe for Chiari and syringomylia?
motivationaldoc I just did it thank you! 😘🙏I can’t believe it helped me turn my head and neck from side to side I have been in horrid crying pain for months and can’t lift my head up off my shoulder always to the left side my chiro hurt me accidentally knocked it out of position when he cracked it and my jaw and your technique is how I sleep at night too on my back on the pillows it is cracking now So is that normal? I could not get it to stop cracking when my chiro hurt me I was scared told him he did not mean to hurt me he is a strong man I am tiny with a small neck. My spasm on the trapeze area is so big and hard nothing can soften it I can’t take muscle relaxers I throw up and get dizzy so don’t know if this will ever heal and my daughter tried to massage me once in a while it’s a long tendon or bone on the left side of my neck that has stiffened severe nausea and pain from this Always! I don’t know if itveill ever go away I have disc degeneration too and austeo arthritis in skull but it’s this stiff neck thing that swells up near side of my throat I can’t swallow water or eat without holding my neck skin with my hand back so I can eat without choking but when I let it go it comes right back and rises up on trapeze between the shoulder. I hope I don’t need surgery but I know I can’t live like this forever either. I will keep watching you thank you God Bless you too! Ginger PS. I am sleeping on a leather couch with quilt blankets and pillows I have no bed, this hurts so I go to bed with this and wake up the same way stiff and I’m crying pain. Just thought you might like to know don’t think a bed would heal me and pain also nerve pain travels down under the arm to the elbow hand fingers too I can’t squeeze or open a bottle or hold a spoon in that hand. Guess I am a hopeless case right now. Praying always!🙏
This is giving me so much hope! ty ty🙏
Hello. I am a tongue cancer survivor. I was treated with radiation and now suffer from lymphedema. For the past 5 weeks I have had burning pain in the back of my head and neck and burning pain at the top of my ears. I can’t sleep and I have to take tylenol and ibuprofen just to get through the day. Last night I did this and this morning I do not have any pain. I am amazed and so grateful for this video

I've been in constant pain for the past 2 years. I've tried everything, taking constant pain medication..spent a fortune of massage gadgets. Happen to stumble across this video, at first I wasn't doing it correctly (always in a rush). Once I got it, instant relief...I cant believe it, today (morning after) still no pain. To wake up pain free is incredible...thank you for this video, keep helping people 👏 🙌 👏
I never experienced occipital neuralgia before and it's unbelievably painful! At first it didn't work but I kept trying for 5-10 minutes and the pain is GONE!!! Thank you so much for your love and care. You are a true doctor! God bless you!!! I can't express enough gratitude

THANK YOU!!!
Hi dear
How are you
Doing this while having a severe occipital headache and instantly feeling the relief. Thank you doctor Mandell
This is unbelievable, I'm shocked by this epiphany. Thank you doctor Mandell!
Amazing! I am a chronic neck pain and headache sufferer. This really helps. Thank you so much!
This and your other neck exercises are a God sent doctor! Thank you.
I have had a tension headache for YEARS now, sometimes with dizziness and most of the time neck pain and tension. These are amazing especially since I try to be more conservative with medications.
How is this even possible? I felt so much relief after 5min. You are a Godsend sir. Blessings on you.
Yas but why do i always have tightness and pain?! I have to do docs exercises every 10mins realistically to stp my pain 😭😥😢

Thank you. Doc. I've been suffering for years, headache that starts at the back of my neck and spreads all throughout the right side of my head, and the back of my right eye. This gives me relief. Thank you again.
you are amazing doctor.... no doctor ever explains thing like this. thanks Dr.
Physical therapy told me to wear a neck brace. I do rest my head on the back of it. This is the same thing. Loving this channel.
This is amazing! I suffer regularly from a stiff neck, headaches and migraines and after a couple of minutes of this technique my neck felt light, better mobility and just felt tension melt away. Definitely going to keep this technique up regularly!
Yes! I could feel warmth in the area. Thank you!
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gone to your channel looking for the answers, doc. Thanks a million!
I have been dealing with tight suboccipital and trapezius pain for many years. I would take Motrin everyday for the pain. This simple exercise released my traps and relieved my pain. I will do this everyday. Truly amazing. Thank you. Bless you motivationaldoc. ❤
This is stopping my headaches and loosening my occipital area. I'm getting more relief as I go through your many videos on this problem. I can see it has to be a daily routine to get the most out of it. Taking the time to do these movements and study the videos is important. You are giving some educational instruction that so many people are waiting to hear ........ there is a light at the end of the tunnel and hope for our good health. You are an internet Pioneer. To be able to bring this treatment into our homes is the miracle we need. The number of lives that can be helped goes world wide. That's BIG!! Thank you for your vision of healthcare as it can be today.
Dr Mandell is the MAN. Healing voice, healing techniques, healing energy. Bless Dr Mandell. Stay humble. Thank you.
I am going to try this........Dr. Mandell you are the one of the best doctors on the internet........
I honestly don't know if I did it properly but whatever I did, I feel a LOT more mobility, loose and relaxed.
It feels great. Now I need to find more videos like this for my whole back.
Thank you so much! I am only thirty, but because of a lack of self-care my back and neck are in a bad shape. I did this exercise, and the result is incredible. I lived with this tension for years now, and now I feel my face again. It is always tense, I almost forgot how it felt to feel the muscle of my jaw relaxing, I will keep doing this exercise for the rest of my days I think, thank you agan, so much!
This immediately helped with the popping and grinding of my neck. You are the best. God bless you!
Definitely increased my range of motion, thank you!
The more we sit staring at our phones/laptops and screens, the more people are going to suffer with this. We are moving to a hunched generation
Great stuff doc. I'm doing prolotherapy for upper cervical instability... but this seems to be a great complimentary technique that seems to help as well. Much appreciated
I love all your videos. You are truely a lifesaver and are helping me so much with my health. Please continue the amazing work. Thank you.
This small, simple technique is great! I have been seeking something like this intuitively, but I tend to over extend when doing something like this and didn’t realize there was a sweet spot. I feel it. I have so much occipital tension wreaking such havoc in my life. So much pain and discomfort and imbalance for so many years and I need more simple at home tools, especially for when the one chiropractor I know who does an occipital lift/release isn’t always available. Thank you. I look forward to seeking more info on your channel! I do actually feel more space on subtle level, after doing that a few times for about 20 seconds each. I felt all kind of arm and head tingles too as I was able to restore some nerve sensation.
I have chronic headaches. I’ll try this for a week and get back to you
Thank you so much for sharing! I sent it to a lady in pain. Thank you so much, too, for your beautiful optimisum!
God Bless Your Gorgeous Heart!!
Thank you so very much. God Bless You and your family.
All i can say for now is thank you ...
You're one of the best chiropractors on the face of the earth...
Yes... ahhhh. Feels great Doc Alan! 🙏. It’s magical and easy🤗
I found this to be very helpful even after just 30 secs.
Thank you!!!! This is exactly what I needed! I woke up this morning barely able to turn my head for no explicable reason and nothing has helped all day, until this video!
Thank You SO Much !!! The Sense of Immediate Release was Extraordinary. I've been SMILING all-day.
I have been having the worst sub occipital, neck and jaw pain and have tried many stretches but this helped INSTANTLY. Thank you for this video!!!
Honestly that was awesome, I have cervical degeneration and it kills so much! I did 3rd sets and just the first set it released son much tension from my neck. God bless you for your excellent video
*released so much tension*
Thank you so much. I have suffered from painful headaches for ages. This has cured them. Once again a million thanks
What a magical doctor you are I pray you live 1000000 years to heal people's with your magical words and techniques
WOW! thank you! I did it once and felt lighter and looser already
Yes! Yes! Yes! This works! The relief is ENORMOUS, thank you!
Glad I found this video.
Need to try this out to relieve my chronic neck pain.
Thanks Doc.
Thank you so much! I've tried so many different things trying to fix my neck, after having a congenital neck injury that caused my atlas vertebra to disclocate. Fixed the vertebra half a year ago, but never managed to release the pain and tension in the back of my neck completely, until now. I feel so much better. Had the whole right part of my face, and partially, my entire right part of the body going numb, and i can feel the sensitivity coming back after trying this method! And youtube just recommends me this video out of nowhere. God bless!
Good morning Doctor, by all the gods and goddess thank you thank you thank you. Yes that has really helped me. Thank you for sharing your knowledge Doctor. You are greatly appreciated. Have a great day.
Hi Natasha

Hi Gruen

Dr Mandel thank you so much .
Your taught exercises work wonderful.You r v sincere in your work.God bless you.
You are really God sent person who is sharing so much of knowledge and helping people to slove there complicated muscles and body problems in such simple ways. Thank you so much.
Such a relief honestly it's what I've been trying to explain to my chiropractor... I just feel I'm having those constant symptoms coming from there.. I've tried this technique and damn how it released so much pressure
Hi Missy
How are you
Oh my GOD, I'm so happy I watched this video! I have been struggling with neck/shoulder pain & migraines concentrated behind my eyes, for decades. The amount of instant relief I felt with occipital traction was INCREDIBLE- thank you SO MUCH! 💖
Are u cured??? I got similar symptoms
@crax438 I wouldn't say "cured"- but I have made a point of making sure my neck & shoulders aren't so tense all the time, & I have noticed a decrease in migraine frequency. Also, if I do have an active migraine or noticeable tension in my neck, doing this technique provides immense relief, for as long as I hold the stretch.
@@ericachacon8337 dam im trying to get a permanent recovery any other tips you have to ease this will be great 👍
I think I have done to many neck raises and trap work and have had a sinus type head ache for about 4 days, this has definitely helped me within minutes of doing your exercise! Your channel is the best
I love motivational doc . A very caring soul.
It’s helped me and I was in a head on collision with a truck
I felt so much relief after 5min. You are a Godsend
I had a neck problem the last two weeks and i just opened youtube and saw your video. Now my neck feels much better 👍🏽 thank you
I have had intense pain for two years. I have had acdf surgery, lots of meds. These exercise are making a huge difference so far. Fingers crossed they continue to provide relief. Thanks for posting these videos
Ahave occipatal neuragia for 20 years
I had a Cervical fusion of my C4-C7 due to a car accident several years ago, suffered with migrains since I was 14 and they have only gotten worse since my accident. My neck pain at time was unbearable. Tried multiple injections, but that only helped for a short time and was back to square one. One of your videos showed up on my feed last night about how to relieve pressure from your occipitals etc... between that video and this one. I have NO pain whatsoever, have regained full range of motion in my neck all the pressure in the back of my head is gone, and an added bonus.... I can breathe so much easier now. Just want to thank you for these videos God bless.
Yes... and which was the other video?
Had it not been for my neck getting re injured I'm sure i'd still be doing great. I had 0 pain up until that point. I really hope the info in these videos can help others.
@chictownguy, I don't remember now, just search his videos about how to relieve occipital nerve pain.
Dr. Mandell for President!!!
Thank you for the video. I did the exercise and immediately felt warmth and release. I will continue to do this on a daily basis, because for a while now i have severe neck and shoulder pain. God bless you.
Some burning, but it was a good heat. I could feel the muscles relaxing.
I have had chronic neck pain in this part of my neck for literally two weeks and nothing I’ve done has relieved the pain until I tried this and wow I cannot believe how instantaneously it worked and relieved a lot of pent up pain also how much mobility I got back! Thank you seriously I’ve been suffering so long but this is so simple and helpful thank you
Brooooo
I just did the stretch after not being able to sleep for a week. Amazing!!
Thank you! Thank you for sharing this information. My neck pain was significantly reduced in just minutes. I have spent years and lots of money looking for relief from my chronic pain. You are a blessing

V v goog exercise I am suffer ing with it for the last 40 years I am filling little relief with these wonderful exercises sir how many time should I do it?
May neck fully jammed will it help me.
Frfr
Hey Doc, i been doing this for over 4-5 years. I discovered this by myself. Yet i would 'decompress it' by pulling. It 'pops' from neck spine and upper thorasic. I do other things for each side of the neck spine. Trust me its the best feeling in the world. I wont show anyone because it's dangerous. Doing these things i discovered is great for me and i feel great. Basically im my own chiro because i dont have one in China. I can show you how i do, but if you would give me credit ;)
This is excellent information, thank you! huge help, perfect timing.
Thank you very much Dr. Mandel. Definitely trying this. God bless you.
my traps were restricting my neck mobility and head pain.... when my traps got released and all is much better... my PT was not focused on this and I had to instruct him.
@@HelloMama pls do. I couldnt move my neck. Now i can. Also a good neck crack by chiro works wonders! Both gets you unstuck. Good luck.
@@HelloMama btw..it was not the pt massage that helped that much. It was a massage gun that targeted my traps and shoulders that finally released the tight muscles restricting my movement. It only took me 6 yrs to figure it out..lol.
How many times should i do this
For YEARS i thought my sinus pressure was my face...I did this exercise and felt tremendous relief. Now Im taking neck hygiene very seriously. Thank you so much
Now what's your condition? Plz reply 🙏
@@AmanKumar-nm5so what condition..?
Occipital neuralgia condition
@@AmanKumar-nm5so I’m not sure what you’re talking about. I didn’t mention any condition
Wow! Thanks a million. Seriously.
Thank you so much!!!! I’ve had pain for over 5 months and hsve only been given pain meds! This technique is amazing!!!
