I did this for about 30 minutes right after watching this video. It was quite painful because of how much I had to stretch, but I could see significant improvement in my posture immediately afterward. It was far too uncomfortable to sleep like that, but the improvement I saw from that lie-down was still there the next day! So I've been having daily lie-downs and after about five days, it's much less painful, and my posture continues to show improvement.

Wanted to share a tip given to me by my chiropractor that worked fantastically for my neck hump. Lie on your back in your bed with no pillow. Then push the back of your head into the mattress, hold for 20 seconds and do three sets in total. You can do more if you’d like, but no need for overkill. Do this just a couple of days in a row and you will see a huge difference! When I did it everyday for just over a week my neck hump was completely gone. But the key is to be consistent with it! Let me know if you give it a try and it works for you 😊

I'm a massage therapist and I have so many clients with this problem. A lot of them have desk jobs. I always tell them about proper posture, to get a chair that will make them sit up straight, and to PUSH THEMSELF into their desk so they are not leaning into their keyboard. Also, the monitor should be eye level (Can use books or a stand) and keyboard 90 degrees with your arms. If you use a laptop, I strongly suggest getting a wireless mouse/keyboard and same thing with the screen-elevate it. Feel free to add anything.

OMG! This really works! I'm a 67 year old woman with a bad hump. I did it one night. As soon as I got up in the morning I automatically stood up straight! What a blessing you are Dr.! I'm breathing better too. I have sleep apnea, so hopefully this will help that too. I do have to say, I had trouble going to sleep b/c of the unfamiliar position, but it was totally worth it! I'm sure as i get used to it this will get better. Thank you! Thank you! You changed my life!

I had a neck hump for most of my childhood, the other kids would make fun of me and call me Quasimodo. My posture improved gradually throughout my life, I think learning how to stand up straighter and routinely putting my head back fixed it. Part of having that neck hump was also due to always keeping my head down due to low self-esteem as a kid. Glad I got over that though.

I have been battling with my posture for years. It's something I've become so self conscious about, and tried so many things to fix it. Being mindful, back braces, exercise, stretches, I tried them all with no improvement whatsoever. Many of these things left me feeling worse and I had almost accepted that I would be permanently slouched over. I was very skeptical when I watched this video yesterday, but tried it last night. After sleeping only one night without a pillow, I immediately feel a difference. IM NOT KIDDING! Its so hard to describe, but I just naturally was more comfortable sitting straighter than normal. Slouching too much was also uncomfortable and I found my self noticing it and correcting it more then I ever have been able to before. I'm amazed, and so grateful I found this. Literally on the verge of tears because I feel like I can actually do something about this insecurity. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!

The best things that have made my posture straight from a hunched over position are a recliner, leaning against it, because it has a high back, and upper body workouts that entail sitting up very straight.

Thank you SO much for this video doc. I cannot tell you how much the pillow tip helped me. I can’t believe in all my years of pain in my neck and back, no one ever told me to just….rotate my pillow. I’ve been sleeping like this about a month, but felt a difference within a few days and it just keeps getting better. My hump is significantly reduced and my posture is better, and for the first time in YEARS my neck is looser and not constantly tight and painful. No matter what stretches I did, I never got as good of results as I started getting after sleeping like this. My stretches now feel more effective and my neck is less “stuck”. I’ve been telling everyone to do this. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. it genuinely changed my life and it’s so simple.

Night 4 of trying to train myself to sleep on my back using this technique. I've also been using video part 3 for the same amount of time. Along with those changes I have a new work chair that actually sits up straight and I'm 6 days into a 30 day workout challenge. My partner has already noticed a slight difference in my forward head posture apparently. I just want to mention to anyone discouraged, don't expect to spend the whole night on your back right away if you're like me and have slept on your side and stomach your whole life. I've found starting in this position and just staying in it for as long as I can each night has helped immensely, even if I end up in another position later, and I even woke up in the middle of the night for water once and was on my back! That was pretty cool. Look for those small signs of improvement and use them to keep pushing! Anything is always going to be better than nothing when it comes to positive life changes ☺️🙏
