Ok so. I have chronic tailbone pain from a break 25 years ago that never healed right. My tailbone, according to the PT who saw me earlier this year for pelvic floor issues, is bent into my body at almost a 90-degree angle. Last night these stretches kicked the chronic pain from a 5 to barely a 2! You better believe I'll be reprising them tonight! To be fair I already did child's pose and happy baby for 10 long breaths each, I've done a less effective variant of the supine figure 4 for many years, and I can't do the forward fold or adductor opener thanks to my vertigo/balance issues, but the combo of everything I could do here was so damn effective! Sharing here in case it helps someone else.

3 Stretches to Release Neck and Shoulder Tension

Take note of the tension before and after this quick practice.

Holy crap, these are amazing! It's an 8-minute video where the practitioner literally demonstrates and talks you through multiple exercises as you go, with comments on variations you can do. The video has subtitles for those with auditory issues. Especially if you watch the video once on its own before following along with it yourself, it's hard to mess these up. I just gave them a shot, and they're going into my permanent routine; SO MUCH RELIEF!!!

Imagine there is an event that will take place in a town many miles from where you live. Your car needs an oil change. But, your life schedule has been very full, allowing you little time to do anything about. You decide that, to make your trip, you are willing to put up with the engine knocking-even, possibly, having the engine receive damage- because you are so focused on attending the event.
