Rehabilitation helps with recovery from injury, illness, surgery and tightness. Problems of the neck, otherwise known as the cervical area, may at times require rehabilitation exercises. Sometimes to strengthen the neck and add support to the upper back and shoulders, chin tucks are incorporated into the routine. Chin tucks require no fitness equipment and can be done from any seated or standing position.
Sit up as tall as possible and look straight ahead.
Slowly tuck your chin in toward your neck, as if you are trying to give the appearance of the dreaded double chin.
Hold this position for at least 10 seconds, and then relax.
Repeat this at least 10 times. When you have progressed in the exercise, continue in sets of 10 repetitions.
