Alleviate Tech Neck Pains & Lines

Most of us are guilty of too much screen time, blurring the lines between connection and disconnection, for better or for worse. Our mental and physical well-being take a hit — tech neck (or text neck) is real and can cause all kinds of back, shoulder, and neck pain. Here’s a remedy:

— 1 —
Identify the SCM muscle in your neck by turning your head to the side. Using the U Edge (U facing downward) gently trace the muscle upward toward the jaw.

— 2 —
Hold the Comb Edge side of the tool horizontally, parallel with fine lines on the neck. Using the opposite index and middle fingers, hold skin taut.

— 3 —
Move the tool up and down in short, brief, swift motions, like a pencil eraser.

— 4 —
Using the opposite Long Edge, smooth it out moving from the center of the neck to side.

Repeat on the other side.
