I’ve been having some pain in my right chest area, shoulder and arm… I believe it’s a nerve problem… I hadn’t worked out with you in a while because we’ve been very busy moving to a new place… Yesterday I did the warmup and then the arm toning video, and I felt much better… Today after the arm toning video, I felt impressed to look for a neck stretching video… Just completed all 3 workouts, and my pain level is 0!!! God is so good! He really does give us exactly what we need! Thank you April and Aiko for being the answer to my prayer ❤️
We are so happy to hear you feel better! We wish you continued good health and are honored to be by your side. Congratulations on your progress and your new home!

Thank you for this helpful routine!

(I seem to always have a project in hand, aggravating the arthritis in my neck. (I apologize if I misspelled your name, Iko!)
Glad it was helpful! Thank you so much!
Eiko was right; it's all the work we do looking down with that heavy head of ours that does it. Thank you both! Your loving energy is healing.

I have arthritis in my cervical spine resulting in limited mobility, especially turning left and right. Before I began this routine, my trapezius was hurting. Your routine brought me relief--even more after doing a second round! My favorite moves were the hug and armpit gazing. Aah! Lovely exercise, lovely repartee between you and your Mama. Thank you!...Anastasia
Thank you! So happy to know we can help you! Do the routines at your own pace until you feel stronger. We love ❤️ having your company! Hope you are feeling better too!
Love this exercise. I had it done with my PT a few years ago when I had a neck injury which was job related. The neurosurgeon reviewed the result of my MRI and gave me a test and said I don’t need surgery coz it can do more harm than good. Advised me to go to a PT for set of exercises and I am still doing it right now. Thanks Aiko and April I found you in this video.. I am doing your other set of exercises with my husband too, More power and more movements for health! Cheers!
Thank you! Happy you enjoyed it! Good that you are keeping up with your PT exercises and terrific that you and hubby are working out together too! Hubbys make great workout buds! Keep up the good work and keep moving with us! See you both soon! ❤️

Thank you for this video! I have fibromyalgia which causes pain and stiffness in my neck and shoulders. I'm hoping these exercises will loosen things up a bit, thanks!
You are most welcome! Do so at a slow and gentler pace and ease into the stretch. 👏 Your well-being is important! Hope the workout can help you. See you soon! ❤️
