Guest guest Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 I used to have the most severe neck aches too, from being hyper conscious for my operatic singing. Id sleep wrong before an audition and voila! I couldnt sing the next day...probably subconsious fears kicking in. Ive learned to do a host of things. Advil before bed (and all day when there's an injury), sleep with a curved/foam pillow (looks like a wave), and the expensive memory foam doesnt have enough comfort/cushion for me, my ear gets caught. Get a masage when i could. Don't carry heavy bags on one shoulder, get a comfortable bra. ALSO! Before going to sleep, use a vibrating back massager for 10-15 minutes, available at tone or Sharper Image...this really helps the next morning. If you're back into weight lifting, I think the weaker muscles have to get stronger to support your lifting. Right now you're so aware of your strained neck, you might be using it to lift! So make it a point to practice good form, talk to trainers who really know about the movement of the lift, in its perfect form. b gentle... > > I am in total agony.

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 I have the same problem!!!! I too changed my pillows to lower ones and then to sleeping without. What works for me is I sleep without a pillow and use that astronaut? pillow when I sleep on my sides. I struggled in the beginning but it does get better. Also do not try and stretch ur neck at all if you feel any stiffness or pain. Hope this problem gets better for u too. HelenesBody4Life wrote: I am in total agony.

Whats strange is this has happened all week and it hurts the most in the morning and when sleeping as the day goes on it improves. I dread trying to sleep tonight!! My mother bought me one of those memory foam pillows but it's so high I feel like I am sleeping on a sliding board and it only hurts more! Help ladies help! __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 thanks perhaps I will try the foam curved as you suggested. the memory ones are so high I don't get how people can sleep on them! > > > > I am in total agony.
