That hump at the base of your neck didn’t come with age. It came from a pattern. And patterns can change. 👇
Your head weighs about as much as a bowling ball. When it drifts forward, the back of your neck and your shoulders have to hold it up all day. They get tight, tired and overloaded. Meanwhile, the muscles that should keep you upright, at the front of your neck and between your shoulder blades, quietly switch off.
Tight muscles pull harder. Weak ones let go. Your upper back rounds, your shoulders roll in, and where your neck meets your back, the body builds extra tissue to cope with the strain. That’s the hump.
Your breath gets squeezed too. A collapsed chest can’t open fully, so your neck starts helping you breathe and gets even tighter.
Swipe to see my client before and after her SomaFace sessions. Her head came back over her shoulders, her neck lengthened, her chest opened, and her jawline lifted with it.
Tight neck, headaches at the back of your head, a clenched jaw, shallow breathing, a tired face? You don’t have to live with it.
In SomaFace I work with face and body as one: releasing what’s been holding on too long, waking up what has switched off, and giving your breath space again.
