Neck Cord Stretch
Platysma engagement
How to
Tilt your head back slightly and pull the corners of your mouth down and outward, as if grimacing, until you feel the vertical cords in your neck engage. Hold, then release.
Benefits
- A classic technique for the platysma, the thin muscle sheet across the front of the neck
- Distinct from a passive neck stretch since it actively engages rather than just lengthens
- Often felt as a firm, obvious pull the first few times
Practice
Hold 5-8 seconds, release fully, repeat 6-8 times.
