Ever wonder what those lines that appear around our neck are.
They are actually wrinkles. As we age, the skin on the front of our necks often
tends to sag and loosen, making us look older than our actual age. Here are
some simple exercises to stretch your neck and smooth down the wrinkles
Chin Lift
Tilt your
chin up and look at a point high up on the wall, but not at the ceiling. Place
your hands at the top of your throat, just below your chin. Try to lift your
jaw up and out without throwing your head any farther back and you should fell
your neck muscles tighten. Hold for several seconds then release. Repeat this
as many times as you can.
Simple Head Turn
Sit up
straight and make sure your shoulders are relaxed before you begin, then slowly
turn your head to the left and right, holding on each side for five seconds.
Performing each turn slowly and carefully will ensure you don’t jar your neck
and your neck muscles work hard to control the movement. Repeat up to 10 times
on each side.
