Tips for Your neck

The neck is the most flexible part of your spine. However, because it is not well protected by muscles, it’s also easy to injure.

* Do not lean over your work table. Work at angles that help you maintain your head straight or sit closer to the table.

* Daily before bath, for a minute or two, massage the neck area with downward strokes one hand following the other using any cream or skin oil.

* Apply lemon-turmeric paste on the neck to eliminate the colour difference in face and skin.

* Use a natural scrubber on your neck daily to keep the lymphatic glands active and also to remove dead skin.

* Buttermilk is a very good cleanser for the neck, especially for those with oily skin.

* When you apply the facial masks don’t forget to apply it on the neck too.

* Use a low pillow. Neck alignment stays better with low pillows.

* It is recommended not to sleep over a soft bed, while natural sleep.

* When you are lifting something then use your legs rather than back. This will not put excess strain on your neck.

* Hold your head up. It improves the posture and is good for the neck.
