This trick with a tennis ball might help you get rid of the pain in your neck or shoulders
A lot of people experience pain in their neck or shoulders on a regular basis. It can have a lot of different causes, like wrong posture of working on a computer for too long at a time. Another cause can be stress, as that is likely to express itself via your body. For example, did you know that intestinal problems can also be a sign of stress? No matter the cause of your painful neck and shoulders, though, there is a simple trick that might help you alleviate the pain.
A simple tennis ball might just be the solution to your painful neck or shoulders.
Waking up
Do you often wake up with quite a lot of pain in your neck and shoulders, even though it seems like you slept perfectly fine? Then that might mean that your sleeping posture is not quite right. This is especially likely if you tend to sleep on your side. If this is something you recognise, you might want to try to keep your shoulders as wide-open as you can when you’re asleep. Of course, this is difficult to regulate when you’re actually sleeping, but what can help is to place a pillow between your knees or to hug a pillow to your chest when you’re asleep. You might be able to prevent a lot of pain this way!
Tennis ball
All you need for this trick is a simple tennis ball, which you’ll be using as a kind of massage ball between your neck and shoulder and the wall. If the ball feels a little too hard to use as a massage ball, you can try putting it in a washcloth to make it a little softer. The trick will only cost you a couple of minutes but it really helps to take away the tension in your muscles. Take a look at the instruction video below and give it a try. You can also use this trick to give your feet a nice massage: just place the tennis ball between your foot and the floor and start rolling!
