Hey guys! When I was in massage school they told me not to tell my clients to “relax” because it was such a trigger weird that it often made folks more tense. Instead tell them to “release” or “become heavy” or “melt”. Love what you’re doing. Hope y’all can use this.
You guys are the best. I love your nerd humor and your videos have truly helped me understand and start dealing with a whiplash injury compounded by poor posture. I didn't find a 100 dollar bill in my pocket-I found something FAR better: some pain relief and better tools to help my neck! THANK you!
This video helped a lot. I Always have had headaches due to muscle pain and never seen a doctor. I've always gotten a massage to clear the headaches up to a year. I got curious and Googled a muscle diagram. I knew what muscle it was but found out the name and here I am. Who says self diagnosis doesn't work.
I went camping and my stiff neck kept getting worse each morning. I could feel tenderness around my left scapula (quite sharp when I looked down). I'm a dental hygienist so I was freaking out that I won't be able to work tomorrow. Out of desperation, I googled dyi remedies, and came across this video. I already feel so much better! Life savers!
Helped me a lot. Anyone else here from tweaking their levator scapulae from doing shoulder presses?
That's my nro 1 problem area, my shoulders shoot up to my ears whenever I feel stressed. So, thank you once again, Bob and Brad, my two favorite men on the internet! 😘
Hello from Romania, I am a physical therapy student, just wanted to thank you for all your videos they are really great and it makes school a lot easier!! 😊😁

Thank you from the bottom of my heart, ı found this very helpfull.

As always you two have the answer….I was in agony last night & am 95% better after the stretches & massage gun therapy THANK YOU. PS a nurse of 50+ yrs🥰
Thank you so much. Very helpful.
Love your videos, they help me to learn anatomy for my yoga course and make it so much mire fun 😀
I just did this therapy (happen to own all of the equipment). Wow, huge relief! Thank you!
This had been bothering me for the past couple days and everything I did to stretch it did not help! Thank you, thank you, thank you for this! It helped immediately! I love your videos!
I cant tell you how much I appreciate your videos guys. Your camaraderie and good humor make you both very approachable and fun to watch, as well as being informative. I am going to go stretch it out!
Now I’m gonna be that woman in the office going around telling everyone about this stretch!
Perfect! Had a small headache at the back of my head and this relieved it!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I did something to my neck while I was doing breathing exercises and it was the exact pain that you described so I tried this stretch and it worked perfectly. It still hurts but now I have a bit of relief. Thank you so much!!
Thank you so much :) It really helped
Very exciting and fun way presentation.. awesome
you guys have helped me so much..
from sciatic pain to scap amd neck muscles strains ...possibly a tear ...been two months of pain waiting for W.C. to approve MRI and physical therapy.......impingement seem to move to right side. . lavator scap. and also affect neck mobility. turning and tilting but just by R.I.C.E. lots of patience , amd time plus BOB AND BRADS comical but helpful videos will truly help you...
even if you have a flare up after....
usually heal a with more manageable pain.....I had nervous sicks from my compress nerve. and couldn't stop adjusting and fidgeting lookn like a weirdo.....STILL AM but very hopeful to be on the better side of this.....🙏
Thanks for this video. I had neck surgery couple months past and in PT at the moment. The only issue for now is my Levator muscle. This exercise is a HUGH help for me. Thanks again.
Thank you guys, I stressed this muscle during exercise these stretches will really help
You guys are awesome!!! So funny too!
Awesome info and entertaining. Can you discuss back spasms.
I totally hit subscribe button because of your hilarious intro!
Thank you... Relief!
The er doctor told me i have a sprained neck. This makes sooooooo much more sense. Going to promt care to make sure then I will try these stretches. God bless
Thank you!!! Felt immediate relief from that stretch
I no longer go to the doctor, thanks to you fellas.
That was the best intro song I’ve ever heard. Pleasantly surprised
Thank you🎆🎇🎀✨
wow 😲 this really works! am subscribing 🤓
Canada ... Luv you both, thanks. Pain runs down to elbow
“You know when you were a kid and you’d talk into that fan, baaaaa, but that ain’t really gonna help that muscle.” 😂
Snazzy tie Bob! ❤️ Napoleon Bone-aparte!
I had weak levator scapulae so I had to strengthen it. And I remembered the exercise my physio prescribed.
wow that first stretch worked magically.. I'm going to start going around the office telling people ;) It really did work magically though.
So that’s what the hell that is! I love these guys!
You mentioned not to do the first stretch if there is pain down upper arm. In that case, what do you recommend?
This relieved my pain almost instantly
Great to hear!!
Love this vid. Ty. This area is the WORST for me. Have a link to the massager?
Great video as usual - how regularly would you suggest before the relief takes place typically? I know doing this it feels great, but after how many days/weeks of regularly doing this would you estimate before the muscle doesnt hurt? Thanks
First great information and plus a good laugh ... you guys crack me up (get it 😅)
Hi guys, love your videos. You mentioned that this stretch isn’t good for those with shoulder pain. Is there a stretch that’s better for the levator scapulae but also if you have shoulder pain? Thanks
Fixed my shoulder finally no wonder adjustments wouldn’t hold. Now I can bench press do chest and shoulder workouts again
Being on phone not knowing how I tense up this side of my neck . My shoulder feels wat better thank you
Hey, I'm having the same problem. How long of doing this fixed your shoulder?
I want to get back to the gym too
Thank you! I have had this for many years and had all kinds of wrong ideas about what was going on. Mine is stress related and I always put heat on it to relax the muscle. Now I have an exercise as well. I really thought it was just plain old age rot!
So i had this problem due to this great cold i got, paired with 10° in texas. This as always been an issue for me. Thanks guys.
Thank you
You are very welcome!
thanks dude
do you have video where the pain is also in the both hands along with neck pain or without neck problems.
i have probs may be due to my posture of sitting infront of computer or long time sitting in front of computer.
let me know if you have and therapy
Hey Bob and Brad love lots of your videos and am looking for any videos that will help with neck ossies causing numbeness and pain down into my hands. Ive had ulnar nrlerve transposition on both arms and still have some syptoms which looks like are comeing from my neck. A recent exray by my chirp shows my neck is too straight and the nautural curve os not presant. The sode of my neck which is facing my spinal column looks to have bone spirs which may be some of my problem as well. Any advice will help. Im also looki g for post ulnar nerve transpostition ( 3 years ago) shoulder arm hand therapy. Kind regards Lemmy!
Wow . Just ... WOW
I have to say thank you for the neck ideas. Doing the exercises and massager. Today my upper back cracked about 5 x.
What stretches would you recommend if the pain is radiating down the arm and up into the base of the skull?
Should I stretch both sides if I have pain only on 1 side??
what are those products called? where is the info for them?
i hope you are in EGYPT im suffering from neck pains
You guys are awesome. Hi napoleon
Sir please add subtitles to your videos also
Wholesome and informative. The ultimate dad team!
If this Naapoleon, what is Brad than 4'4? Nice video.
I have a huge knot just below my skull on the right side of my spin. My chiropractor didn’t notice it. But my message therapist felt it. So I don’t know how to get rid of it.
i have scoliosis, and lately having so much pain in this muscle, will these exc help in my condition
I think I keep pulling this on my ring dips. Any way to strengthen it?
I would love a Pure-wave but you can't get them in the UK 😢😢😢
Pretty sure I have a levator scapulae tear from a fall is there anything you’d recommend?
How do we know if which muscles it is trapezius muscles hurt and neck is stiff
Hi Bob en brad. Is it possible to have an injury on the lowest side of the levator, where it’s attached to the scapula? The stretch only makes the pain worse. It really radiates from right above the scapula.
3:54
10 to 30 seconds
Stretch starts
What if the muscle is torn? Should we do this stretch?
I have herniated disc in neck. Feels like one moment pain in the muscle you speak of and other times spasms . How do I know difference?
Have had scapular brutitis for the past 4 years..... literally pop ibuprofens and try to foam roll but nothing.
Ok, so this looks good for tension in the Levator Scapulae. But what if it's a suspected strain? For instance, I got a little sloppy with my form performing my last strict shoulder press at the gym today, and my LS got over-stressed in the process. I'm icing it now, but if I want to move around, I have to do it very slowly to avoid muscle pain in the neck. Should I wait a few days before stretching? or will stretching it now work out a kink?
Do you have a video for the sort of pain you describe that this stretch isn’t for? The pain down your arm coupled with the pain in the see you later muscle?
in their other videos i think if you have pain down your arm you should consult a doctor
My pain is centralized in my upper arm but the reason I think it’s the levator neck muscle is because it’s really swollen and twice the size of the other one. It looks like I have one huge upper neck muscle
Ok I was hopeful this stretch would help but I stopped the video at the part when you said not if the pain is going down your arm. Mine is making my arm ache bad. What does that mean? Please help
You guys said that if the pain goes down to your arm that this is not the stretch for you. What is the stretch then
Massage, PT, Graston, and soon acupuncture for my levator scapulae. It's a real bear.
Thanks!
My pain is up high at the top... any ideas?
Spasmed while going heavy on barbel shoulder press😭
Wish I could go to them. Canadians?
Getting a Lowe upper back pain, it’s runs around from the under arm to front bust and back , painful when I sneeze or coughing. Any advise please would I be brill .
possibly muscular imbalance in the serratus related to pressure on the thoracic nerve from a tight levator scap.
What to do when my tensonds hurts from the right shoulder all the way down to my fingers as if my fingers and my forearm tendons are pulled?what should I do?
tip use an umbrella
What to do if the pain does go into the arm?
Wondering the same. I’ve been seeing a hand/wrist dr and a neck dr. This is where my pain is. Wish they’d answer your question 😢
How do we release hamstring ms
If you have tight hamstrings you need to stretch them. Sleep on your back, take a towel, hang it upon your upward toward the ceiling pointed sole of foot and then straighten your knee up.
By pulling the towel with both your hands and hence your limb too.
I turned the wrong way about an hour ago and now I'm stuck in bed trying to find a way to release. My head right now is cocked go the right because if I turn it it hurts on the left! I managed to sit up but it took a good half hour lmfao. Good thing I don't have to work today
Update- still stuck with my head cocked to
The right lol. :(
Lmao that’s funny, I hope you are better now considering it’s two years later.
$100 bill✨😁✌🏼👍🙏
