How to do Neck Rotation

SeatedHoldBoth sidesBeginner

Neck Rotation is a seated stretch for your neck. Do it on one side, then switch.

Step by step

  1. 1Stand or sit with your back straight and arms at your sides.
  2. 2Slowly turn your head to one side, looking over your shoulder.
  3. 3Use your fingertips on your chin to gently push your head further.

What you should feel

Keep your shoulders soft and still.

Form tips

  • Keep your head level during the rotation. Maintain a straight back and relaxed shoulders.
  • Feel the side of your neck slowly open.
  • Breathe out… and let the turn ease a little.

Make it easier

If your neck is sensitive, let your hand drop and just turn.

Coming out of it

Lower your hand… and slowly turn your head back to center.

Muscles it works

Move slowly and stop if anything hurts. This is general guidance, not medical advice; check with a professional if you're injured or recovering.

Do Neck Rotation with a coach

In BendEase, a voice coach talks you into Neck Rotation, cues you through the hold and tells you when to switch sides, while the guided video shows you exactly how. It's built into routines for your neck.
