Acute Neck Pain Protocol 

 

Place a flexible ice pack on the band of your NeckTek and a layer of wet material 
(washer/tea towel) on top of that.  
 
Lie back on the  ice pack with your head centred comfortably on the band and the ice  
pack wrapping around the top of your neck. Often, your acute neck pain will be reduced 
with your head in a higher position from the floor, so you may need to tighten the band to 
hold your head in a comfortable position. 
 
Maintain the ice pack application for 20-30 minutes, then remove the ice pack and spend 
5 minutes consciously relaxing into the band.  
 
Follow this by doing 5 of each of the Beginners exercises. Repeat in 60 minutes. 
 
There is strong evidence to support the early application of ice to relieve acute neck pain 
and, particularly ice to the carotid arteries, to relieve migraine.  
 

IMPORTANT NOTE: 

Some conditions contraindicate the use of ice, so if in doubt, or if 

pain persists, consult your doctor or therapist.
