No More Tech Neck

Skincare • 23 July 2018

If you’re always connected in the digital world, then you may be familiar with the common pain known as “tech neck”. Affecting up to 50% of the population, frequent twinges and built-up tension can create longer term health issues if left untreated. It’s caused by repeatedly lowering your head down to look at a screen throughout the day, creating muscle tension across the shoulders and can even damage your spine over time. What’s more, this repetitive movement often ages your neck more quickly too, creating fine lines and wrinkles across your skin.

The good news is, you can condition your body to reverse neck pain, prevent future discomfort as well as smoothing out the skin across your neck. For best results, we recommend working these simple steps into your everyday skincare routine to boost your overall well-being and relaxation.

 

Set time limits

It’s so important to make sure you limit your screen time, making a conscious effort to give your body a break. Try developing a habit of taking a 3-minute break for every 15-20 minutes you use your device. If you work in a sedentary job, try breaking up your day with short walks, even if it’s just making an extra trip to the water cooler.

Realign your posture

Make sure you’re allowing your muscles to fully unwind after a long day at work with the HoMedics Neck and Shoulder Massager. Using powerful vibration massage techniques, this soothing device hugs your curves to release tension across the neck and shoulders. Simply use the looped handles on each side to personalise your massage by adjusting the fit.

 

Tone your muscles

Sometimes, our skin needs an extra boost. Gently lift the muscles across the jowl and upper neck with the NuFACE Mini Facial Toner, energising your facial muscles for a lifted appearance. Simply treat the area below the jawline with gentle lifting motions to keep your contours in top shape.

 

Choose your topicals

When considering your wider skincare routine, it can be easy to forget to treat your neck too. The bestselling PRAI Beauty Ageless Throat & Decolletage Crème gently restores elasticity to your skin, making it look up to 15 years younger in a matter of weeks. Massage into the skin twice daily to visibly reduce and correct the visible signs of ageing.
