After seeing the chiropractor three times a week for the last 4 months, I was given this ramp-shaped thingy to do neck stretches with.
Basically I am to hang my head over the high edge for 20 minutes a day. This in turn will help stretch the ligament in the front of my neck and give me a nice 60-degree curve that is oh-so-desirable. (According to my chiropractor my neck is too straight and flat, which explains my migraines and asthma.)
To be honest, I was skeptical about chiropractic care, but it has surprisingly eliminated my migraines the past few months. I feel well a lot of the time and I sleep better too. I have not gotten sick even when a nasty bug was infecting everyone at work. Coincidence? Perhaps, but things are functioning well.
I am not a big fan of this traction. It hurts and we are expected to put our shoulders on the edge and get crazy far back. Not sure I'm ready for that yet...
