Repetitive Stress
Sitting for long periods of time in one position or keeping your head/neck in static position can cause stress on the head & neck and make you vulnerable for injury, especially if you’re looking up or sideways for long periods of time. Improper ergonomics in the workplace can also cause unnecessary stress on your head and neck and make you vulnerable for injury.
Poor Core Strength
The abdominal and low back together (core) are the foundation of your spine. Your head and neck are part of the spine and if your core is not strong, then stress will travel through up the spine to your head and neck and make you vulnerable to injury.
