How to do it
- With your head and neck in a neutral position (normal position with head erect facing forward), place both of your hands on the front side of your head.

- Hold for the recommended number of seconds.
- Now release the tension slowly.
- Rest for the recommended amount of time and repeat with your hands placed on the back side of your head.
