Good luck finding a doctor who will even do your tests. I’ve been to several, they’ve never done anything like this. Those were ortho’s and even had a neurologist same thing. It’s all about finding the right doc.
So true, everyone is a “specialist” for lower back pain. My physio told me there are no exercises for upper spine bulging disc 🥴 it will heal by itself
I have a fused C6-C7 (birth defect) and a chiropractor’s x-ray imaging showed this plus bone spurs. I work sitting 7-8 hours a day from home and recently my Ulnar-Radial nerves started flaring up something crazy. Anti-inflammatory meds do help, so does ice & rest, but I did these micro-movement exercises (plus some “sitting desk” type movements) yesterday. Definitely released the traps and supporting fibers to the point of ZERO pain and that numbness left for several hours. Back at them today, these really work!
I did the 3 step exercises and my neck and shoulders were greatly improved. The pain in my neck is gone and I will still do the exercises to make sure my neck stays free of pain. Thanks to both of you.

@@sunderasen.p9349I wouldn’t hold your breath. Maybe not this one in particular, but in general these videos are so detached from reality. I’ve been in physical therapy for 25 weeks, and never had anything very painful fixed. Not once, and most of these videos will say that they can relieve pain immediately. Go see an interventional pain management specialist.
Im 8 months in. Ive done PT, Dry Needling, 5 Cortisone Shots/trigger Point, & Just had Botox done on the right side of my neck & sholder 8 days ago. The pain just wont stop. 😪 Thank you for making this video.

What was the Genesis of the issue? I crushed several discs through a cervical impact compression and was compounded by large amounts of osteophytes from injury healing from contact sports. That led to several parts of my spinal.nerves being severed and even after 2 decompression and disc replacement surgeries I've had no regain of function. Sometimes the physical space and damage is unfixable.
No numbness or tingling down the arm for me, but my physio has still said i have a cerivcal pinched nerve! Positive Spurling test (increase sharp pain and symptoms on affected side around the neck and trap). Will try these exercises out. Thank you!
Man you have no idea how much relief i feel now, thank you for those exercises, and that you helped me, i am in tears litteraly, holy moly... Thanks again!

Thanks, and grateful for this video. Today itself I tried. I had a lot of pain. It released my neck pain and improved my neck and hand movement easily.
I'm so sorry. In the US, the time to see a doctor is hit or miss depending on where you live. Some states have far more doctors (and teaching hospitals) so the wait for a specialist is maybe three months at most. When I had the symptoms described in this video, I was given a same day appointment with my GP who ordered an MRI. I was able to get the MRI in about a week. It would have been sooner had I not required sedation (my claustrophobia is severe). The appointment had to be for when one of the anesthesiologists was available to be in the MRI area to administer sedation and monitor me. It must be frustrating and upsetting thst it takes so long to get NHS care. I was shocked that, in addition to the wait time to see doctors, that specific cancer screening procedures start much later (age-wise) in the UK than they do in the US. I can't help but, wonder if that's due to the same reasons it takes so long to see a doctor and to have scans done.
Have had a pinched nerve, radiating pain and tingling fingers with diminished 30-40% strength only. No doctor has measured my tricep strength so far. But I am really grateful for your video. I hope i can get on top of this syndrome soon 😒
Thanks y'all for responding. I am actually doing much better, pain free in the night and almost 100% mobility in my neck. Thanks to my osteopath, manual therapist and physio therapy I am making good progress to regain strength. My left arm and hand is still weaker than my right, but the other symptoms are much better and almost non existent. In this video i appreciated the theoretical info in the beginning and some of the exercises. I have watched dozens of videos and took the exercises that most connected with my situation. Nerv flossing has been a great suggestion and i am continuing to do it to free the nerves in my left arm. I am doing the "double chin" tug to ease off the pressure from neck in disc 5 from bad posture. This and the kettle exercises from my physio to support my discs via muscle strenghtening are what did the trick. I have also been taking turmeric/black pepper pills to reduce inflamation in my neck... and some other pills that encourge mobility and joint reconstruction. Thanks for reaching out and your wishes! 🙌
I walked into a wooden climbing frame 6 years ago and since then ive experienced tingling n numbness down my left arm and a burning sensation. I've also acquired vertigo & tinnitus which i believe is also related to my neck injury.
This is amazing stuff. The first exercise gave immediate results and relief. I usually have a mild shooting pain on the whole right side from the neck, shoulder, arm, forearm, and 4th to 5th digit, but these exercises helped a lot. Thanks for this!

I also went to a spine specialist who sent me for MRI's of spine and neck. It started with a severe case of sciatica in 2016 and I've been walking stiff legged for years. I have degenerative changes in the spine and a bulging disc in neck. He never touched me either. His report to my doctor said she's walking normally! I'm in Australia
@@3tch3r thanks but I have to be thankful that I can still walk. My older sister had spinal surgery a few years ago and became a paraplegic, stupid doctor severed the spinal cord
I thought I might have TOS. I get awful pain now down my arm. If I straighten my neck laying down it can get worse, laying down on a flat surface made it hurt terrible. Under collar bone has tense muscle, on my tricep, and as I have dealt with for many many years.. thoracic area. It goes down neck, to thoracic, to arm. 25 years ago I had a car accident and hurt my left thoracic area where it has been bad, particularly in winter, with stabbing deep pain. Most of back and same left side in my glute/sciatic area gets very painful. Now, it’s neck on down to arm.

I wonder if the same thing but a bit further up could be the cause of my horrible headaches when bending down or leaning forward. There is a slight tenderness on the right hand side of what I think is maybe my c5 but maybe higher, and I've always just thought that it is stemming from that. Physio did say my neck was significantly tighter at that side and did some work on it last week but still the extreme headaches continue
Thanks for sharing. These exericses are a good start. The Neck Pain Solution program is even better. Read more about it in the video description and let us know if you have any questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Great information! I don't have any numbness on my left arm but when I turn my neck to the left it does hurt to my upper left shoulder and its hard to sleep on my left side as my left arm is in pain and also have sharp stabbing pain on my left bicep, sometimes down to my forearm. Could it be a sign of a pinched nerve or tendinitis? Greatly appreciate the help. :)
Hi and thanks for sharing your story. We appreciate you trusting us to help guide your efforts. It's hard to say what the root cause of your issue could be from our vantage point. There are likely multiple root causes including what you mentioned. However, based on what you have written the Shoulder Pain Solution can help you assess and address the root cause of your issue. It is comprehensive and progressive. www.precisionmovement.coach/shoulder-pain-solution-yt Check that out and let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Can a cervical radiopathy cause scapula pain and occasional hand numbness? (also the scapula pain doesn't appear localised on a muscle, and trying to massage-ball it only makes everything worse)
Hi and thanks for asking. It can be related and definitely avoid any exercise that causes more pain unless you can modify it. For example, using your fingers instead of the ball may help. Let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

I have cervical degeneration in my neck on the left side from whiplash, it is very painful - 2 weeks ago I suddenly lost focus in my peripheral vision in my left eye - what nerve could be affected by my cervical instability?

I have this problem and have had many MRI’s. The doctor told me to come back if my hand stays numb and that’s when they would do something. Can the nerve be destroyed?
I got horrible tinnitus out of nowhere 3 weeks ago in my left ear with no clear explanation. While doing the supine chin tuck exercise the loudness of my tinnitus goes through the roof for the duration of my head being elevated and returns to the base value when relaxing. I'm curious if the tinnitus could be related to a nerve issue in the neck?
Thanks for sharing that and it's entirely possible. Try out the exericses 2 - 3 times weekly for at least 4 weeks and send a report. We can go from there. Talk to you soon :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Can a pinched nerve affect the upper neck doctor. X- ray reveals no degenerative changes.But l had sharp pains in my upper neck and occipital headaches.Physio exercise twice a day have reduced symptoms by 70%. I also had pain in the inner mid neck radiating into the brain tem when laying on my side since gone with exercise. Do you think a piched nervebis at play? Strangely l do get some mild tingling in my arms aswell.
It's hard to say but these exercises are safe as long as they do not cause more pain. Let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
@@PrecisionMovementCoach Thankyou for your kind reply doctor. My physio did suggest a possible cervical hernia but could not be sure as the pain is sporadic throughout the day. Some pain in the neck when turning or bending forward.
@@PrecisionMovementCoach if I sleep on my back it’s both arms. If I don’t use a pillow and use something small like a sheet for a pillow it’s considerable better.
Yikes! We are here for you. Please try out the exericses 2 - 3 times weekly for at least 4 weeks and send a report. We can go from there. Talk to you soon :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Hi, my problem is I have pain radiating in all my arm and thumb side wheh I lie on my yoga mat. Can I use pillow for this exercise ? It does help and I have no pain when my head supported.
If one has cervical pain is it safe to push forward against your hand when doing 6 way neck ISO ? I'm suffering from pain due to long hours working on laptop or should i skip that
Hi and thanks for asking. It's hard to say from our vantage point but back off on the movement and duration of the exericse, and keep us posted on your progress. Also, consider starting the Neck Pain Solution program. It was designed for people like you. Read more about it in the video description, and let us know if you have any questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Excellent video! As always:) Let me have one question - in 5:35 you mention possible pain and numbness. If I don't have them or they don't increase during or after the exercise, then does that mean the exercises are safe for me? Or is it possible that they will be delayed and occur several hours later or even next day?
They are safe if you do not experience immediate pain/numbness. It's hard to comment on potential symptoms that have yet to arise. Let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Hi I am not sure I have this When I try and turn to the right I get severe pain at the base of right neck/skull.

for a long time i got headaches after laying with my head bend forward for a little while, I stopped doing that completely, but now I get a face tingling from just a few moments of that position, any idea what it could be?
Hi and thanks for asking. It's hard to say what that could be due to. However, it sounds like a circulation issue. Meaning, you are just spending too much time in that position and blood is pooling. Why do you need to do that? - Coach Joshua, Team PM
@@PrecisionMovementCoach Thanks a ton for the answer. It could definitely be, since my left foot has a tiny bit of tingling as well every now and then. Well, I used to lie in bed watching TV with my partner, but now I just stand up if I lay too long and the headache disappears. Interesting some of the face tingling seemed come and then go away again after laying straight down looking up for a little while. Not really sure what to make of it. But its not strong symptoms but enough to find it a bit weird.
Great question. Start with your primary care physician and do these exercises 2 - 3 times weekly for at least 4 weeks.

Hi and great question! The MRI only shows so much, and may not relate to your symptoms at all. This is why we treat symptoms and not images. They are more important. Please try these exercises 2 - 3 times weekly for four weeks and get back to us with a progress report. We can go from there. Talk to you soon :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

You are welcome!
Doctor I have Cervical Disc Dehydration on C5 C6 C7. I am facing big problem, I have tinnitus nonstop ringing in ears, numbness, tingling in hands and legs. Regarding tinnitus I had done all ear test all reports are normal.

I went to a Spine Specialist and he ordered MRIs didn't even touch me healthcare is just terrible with some institutions
So true and sad.

Healthcare in the USA sucks!
I also went to a spine specialist who sent me for MRI's of spine and neck. It started with a severe case of sciatica in 2016 and I've been walking stiff legged for years.
I have degenerative changes in the spine and a bulging disc in neck. He never touched me either. His report to my doctor said she's walking normally! I'm in Australia
@@krpurple2678 damn... sorry 😔
@@3tch3r thanks but I have to be thankful that I can still walk. My older sister had spinal surgery a few years ago and became a paraplegic, stupid doctor severed the spinal cord
I thought I might have TOS. I get awful pain now down my arm. If I straighten my neck laying down it can get worse, laying down on a flat surface made it hurt terrible. Under collar bone has tense muscle, on my tricep, and as I have dealt with for many many years.. thoracic area. It goes down neck, to thoracic, to arm. 25 years ago I had a car accident and hurt my left thoracic area where it has been bad, particularly in winter, with stabbing deep pain. Most of back and same left side in my glute/sciatic area gets very painful. Now, it’s neck on down to arm.
Ouch!

I wonder if the same thing but a bit further up could be the cause of my horrible headaches when bending down or leaning forward. There is a slight tenderness on the right hand side of what I think is maybe my c5 but maybe higher, and I've always just thought that it is stemming from that. Physio did say my neck was significantly tighter at that side and did some work on it last week but still the extreme headaches continue
Thanks for sharing.
These exericses are a good start. The Neck Pain Solution program is even better. Read more about it in the video description and let us know if you have any questions :)

Most headaches are from muscles of the neck and shoulders; get a massage
Thank you for this! 👏
:)
Great information! I don't have any numbness on my left arm but when I turn my neck to the left it does hurt to my upper left shoulder and its hard to sleep on my left side as my left arm is in pain and also have sharp stabbing pain on my left bicep, sometimes down to my forearm. Could it be a sign of a pinched nerve or tendinitis? Greatly appreciate the help. :)

Can a cervical radiopathy cause scapula pain and occasional hand numbness? (also the scapula pain doesn't appear localised on a muscle, and trying to massage-ball it only makes everything worse)
Hi and thanks for asking.
It can be related and definitely avoid any exercise that causes more pain unless you can modify it. For example, using your fingers instead of the ball may help.
Let us know if you have any more questions :)

I have cervical degeneration in my neck on the left side from whiplash, it is very painful - 2 weeks ago I suddenly lost focus in my peripheral vision in my left eye - what nerve could be affected by my cervical instability?
Hi and thanks for asking.
It's hard to say from our vantage point and we encourage you to do these exericses unless they cause more pain.
Do them 2 - 3 times weekly for at least 4 weeks and send a report.
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
How about cord impingement? Is surgery most always indicated?
Hi!
That is a question for your primary care physician.
Thanks for stopping by to ask and let us know if you have any more questions. We can't answer everything but we will try :)
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
I have this problem and have had many MRI’s. The doctor told me to come back if my hand stays numb and that’s when they would do something. Can the nerve be destroyed?
With chronic pressure on a nerve it can be damaged- but usually the numbness would affect only part of the hand and their may be associated weakness.
It is possible and we hope that you have not progressed to that point.
Did you try out the exericses?
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
excellent video thank you
You are welcome and thanks for stopping by!
I got horrible tinnitus out of nowhere 3 weeks ago in my left ear with no clear explanation. While doing the supine chin tuck exercise the loudness of my tinnitus goes through the roof for the duration of my head being elevated and returns to the base value when relaxing. I'm curious if the tinnitus could be related to a nerve issue in the neck?
Thanks for sharing that and it's entirely possible.
Try out the exericses 2 - 3 times weekly for at least 4 weeks and send a report. We can go from there.
Talk to you soon :)

Can a pinched nerve affect the upper neck doctor. X- ray reveals no degenerative changes.But l had sharp pains in my upper neck and occipital headaches.Physio exercise twice a day have reduced symptoms by 70%. I also had pain in the inner mid neck radiating into the brain tem when laying on my side since gone with exercise. Do you think a piched nervebis at play? Strangely l do get some mild tingling in my arms aswell.
It's hard to say but these exercises are safe as long as they do not cause more pain.
Let us know if you have any more questions :)
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
@@PrecisionMovementCoach Thankyou for your kind reply doctor. My physio did suggest a possible cervical hernia but could not be sure as the pain is sporadic throughout the day. Some pain in the neck when turning or bending forward.
what doctor to go to? neurologist or ortho doctor?
Great question!
Start with your primary care physician and go from there.
Did you try out the exercises?

Is it possible to have numbness in hands with no neck pain caused by pinched nerve in neck? Especially at night when I wake up.
Yup.
@@PrecisionMovementCoach if I sleep on my back it’s both arms. If I don’t use a pillow and use something small like a sheet for a pillow it’s considerable better.
Can a pinched nerve affect both hands and feet?
Yup.
I have a question.Could I do those exercises on a back inversion machine?
No. Do them they way that they are demonstrated for optimal effect :)

Hi, my problem is I have pain radiating in all my arm and thumb side wheh I lie on my yoga mat. Can I use pillow for this exercise ? It does help and I have no pain when my head supported.

If one has cervical pain is it safe to push forward against your hand when doing 6 way neck ISO ? I'm suffering from pain due to long hours working on laptop or should i skip that
It's safe to attempt but stop if it causes more pain.
Thanks for watching and keep us posted on your progress :)

I suffer from hyperacusis and chin tucks make my symptoms worse (painful hearing sensitivity raises), I wonder why is it...?
Hi and thanks for asking.
It's hard to say from our vantage point but back off on the movement and duration of the exericse, and keep us posted on your progress.
Also, consider starting the Neck Pain Solution program. It was designed for people like you. Read more about it in the video description, and let us know if you have any questions :)
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
Excellent video! As always:)
Let me have one question - in 5:35 you mention possible pain and numbness. If I don't have them or they don't increase during or after the exercise, then does that mean the exercises are safe for me?
Or is it possible that they will be delayed and occur several hours later or even next day?
They are safe if you do not experience immediate pain/numbness. It's hard to comment on potential symptoms that have yet to arise.
Let us know if you have any more questions :)
- Coach Joshua, Team PM

Unfortunately when I try to go against wall or lay flat I get sharp pain on my left side into my shoulder blade.
So guess these will not work.
Hi and thanks for trying them out.
Skip the wall pattern for now and rest your head on a supportive pillow/foam roller when lying flat.
Let us know how that goes :)

for a long time i got headaches after laying with my head bend forward for a little while, I stopped doing that completely, but now I get a face tingling from just a few moments of that position, any idea what it could be?
Hi and thanks for asking.
It's hard to say what that could be due to. However, it sounds like a circulation issue. Meaning, you are just spending too much time in that position and blood is pooling. Why do you need to do that?
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
@@PrecisionMovementCoach Thanks a ton for the answer. It could definitely be, since my left foot has a tiny bit of tingling as well every now and then.
Well, I used to lie in bed watching TV with my partner, but now I just stand up if I lay too long and the headache disappears.
Interesting some of the face tingling seemed come and then go away again after laying straight down looking up for a little while. Not really sure what to make of it. But its not strong symptoms but enough to find it a bit weird.
Which type of doctor do I go to ?
Great question.
Start with your primary care physician and do these exercises 2 - 3 times weekly for at least 4 weeks.

I had an Mri and it shows a nerve on the right hand side being pinched on the C6. However my shoulder and arm pain is on the left hand side. Any ideas?
Hi and great question!
The MRI only shows so much, and may not relate to your symptoms at all. This is why we treat symptoms and not images. They are more important.
Please try these exercises 2 - 3 times weekly for four weeks and get back to us with a progress report. We can go from there.
Talk to you soon :)
