Osteopath Brendon Talbot shares how to correct a neck hump with one daily stretch

A top osteopath has shown how to get rid of a neck hump and improve your posture with one simple movement.

Brendon Talbot, from Canada, is a health practitioner who specialises in bone and muscle tissue. 

He demonstrated the easy exercise which stretches out the muscles in the back of the neck in an online video.

Brendon said doing the stretch daily can also relieve headaches, migraines, neck pain and upper back pain. 

He said to tuck your chin in as far as you can and gently press it back and down then use your other hand to rotate the head down.

Brendon said by doing this you should be able to feel a stretch on the back of your neck. 

He noted doing one exercise won’t change your posture but implementing a daily movement routine can help improve it over time.

Many of Brendon’s 1.7million followers were thankful for the advice with one saying: ‘I needed this’. 

‘Thank you! Sent this video to my humpy hunchy husband,’ one woman replied.  

This isn’t the first time Brandon has offered his advice for getting rid of a neck hump.

In a previous clip he shared another exercise you can do daily to straighten and stretch the spine. 

Brendon demonstrated the exercise where you interlock your fingers behind your head, tuck in your elbows and slide them up a wall towards the ceiling stretching out your back. 

He recommends doing the stretch a few times a day to get the desired results and said anyone who struggles to do the exercise against a wall can do it kneeling down over a bench. 

The video racked up 15.4million views and 1.3million likes in just three days after it was posted to TikTok and attracted hundreds of grateful comments.

‘Thank you so much for this. I’ve been trying to figure to how to get rid of mine for so long,’ one women said.

‘I have such a complex about this. I have long hair and even when its super hot I never put my hair up. Thank you..I’ll be trying this,’ another commented.

Mr Talbot reassured some skeptical commenters who said the technique hasn’t worked for them.

‘Just because it didn’t crack, doesn’t mean it didn’t work. This is a movement we should be dong daily to keep out spine healthy and moving,’ he said.
