Neck as an important bridge between the brain and the trunk, if the neck blood vessels are blocked, it is very detrimental to human health, and may even cause great adverse effects on brain function, such as light dizziness and headache, heavy due to insufficient cerebral blood supply and brain lesions.
Therefore, for the maintenance of blood vessels in the neck, we must pay more attention to it. Let's take a closer look at the three exercise tips that can help you effectively prevent blockages in the blood vessels in the neck.
1. Back and forth movement
Specifically, the head is lowered to the lowest point and held for 4 to 5 seconds, and then the head is slowly moved up and backward to the most point, while maintaining for 4 to 5 seconds. Take this as a group, and practice 5 to 10 groups at a time.
Front and back exercises can be very effective in relieving cervical fatigue and promoting blood circulation in the neck, which can play a very good role in staying away from neck blood vessel blockages and preventing cervical spondylosis.
2. Confrontational movement
This is done by crossing the ten fingers of both hands and placing them behind the neck, then pushing the head and neck backwards and the hands forward. Adversarial exercise is very beneficial for restoring the physiological curvature of the cervical spine and preventing cervical deformation. Therefore, in the case of frequent bowing and not moving, we must pay attention to actively carrying out confrontation exercises.
In addition, for middle-aged and elderly people who have insufficient arm strength and may feel tired in confrontational exercises, they can choose to replace their hands with a towel, which can also achieve the ideal maintenance effect. However, the choice of towel must pay attention to the soft material and moderate length.
3. Rice character exercise
This is done by imagining the chin as the tip of a pen and then drawing rice characters in the air by moving the head and neck. Rice character exercise is very helpful for relieving shoulder and neck fatigue and promoting blood circulation in the neck.
Therefore, for the low-headed people who often work on the desk, we must pay attention to the timely development of rice character exercises, and in the process of exercise, we must control the movement speed of the head and neck position, so as not to cause dizziness and discomfort due to excessive force and too fast movement. In addition, the single time of the meter exercise does not have to be too long, and it can generally be controlled between 3 and 5 minutes.
These are some of the most common exercise tips that can help prevent blockages in the neck, so what are the important things to look out for?
1. Avoid bowing your head for a long time
Maintaining a bowed posture for a long time is one of the most critical influencing factors that can cause serious damage to neck health. Therefore, if you want to stay away from the problem of blood vessel blockage or cervical spondylosis in the neck to the greatest extent, you must actively avoid staying down for a long time.
Especially for office workers who often need to work on the desk, it is important to get up in time every forty-five minutes to move their heads, necks and limbs.
2. Hot compress massage
For friends who already have neck stiffness or soreness, it is advisable to massage the neck for a while before going to bed every night.
The specific massage method is to first place a warm towel on the neck discomfort, and then use the palm of the hand to gently press or rub, which can effectively relieve shoulder and neck discomfort and actively promote blood circulation in the neck.
The above is an introduction to the important things to pay attention to in preventing blockage of blood vessels in the neck. First of all, for the sake of neck maintenance, it is recommended that everyone must pay attention to the timely development of before and after exercises, confrontational exercises and rice exercises after work, which is very helpful for promoting blood circulation in the neck.
In addition, it is important to pay due attention to the need to avoid moving your head for a long time and to properly massage the neck with hot compresses.
