Neck & Upper Body Reset (OptiNeck)

Modern life involves a lot of sitting. Whether we’re working at a desk, driving or looking at our phones, we can spend hours with the shoulders rounded and the upper body held in very similar positions.

Over time, it’s hardly surprising that the neck, shoulders and upper back can begin to feel stiff, tight and uncomfortable.

Our 75-minute Neck & Upper Body Reset is a practical workshop designed to get this often-neglected area moving again.

We begin with a series of simple, focused stretches and mobility exercises for the neck, shoulders, upper back and thoracic spine, helping to restore movement to areas particularly prone to stiffness.

We’ll then introduce you to the OptiNeck — a specialist roller developed in the UK to target the upper back and the notoriously difficult-to-reach area between the shoulder blades.

You’ll experience how simply lying over the OptiNeck can help open the front of the body, encourage movement through the thoracic spine and provide a welcome counter-position to the rounded, slumped posture many of us adopt during prolonged sitting.

But we don’t stop there.

After getting you moving again, we’ll return to the OptiNeck and explore more dynamic exercises, using movement and, where appropriate, light weights to demonstrate how the roller can be used for much more than simply lying and stretching.

You’ll leave with practical ideas you can use at home to help:

• Reduce feelings of neck, shoulder and upper-back tension
• Improve thoracic and upper-body mobility
• Open the chest after prolonged sitting
• Encourage healthier movement through the neck and shoulders
• Build strength and control around the upper back
• Break up the physical effects of long periods spent sitting

Perfect for desk workers, drivers, students, sedentary lifestyles or anyone who regularly thinks: “My neck and shoulders just feel tight.”

No complicated routines. Just 75 minutes dedicated to getting your neck, shoulders and upper back moving again.
