How to perform it

  1. With your head and neck in a neutral position (normal position with head erect facing forward), place your left hand on the left side of your head.

  3. Hold for the recommended number of seconds.
  4. Now release the tension slowly.
  5. Rest for the recommended amount of time and repeat with your right hand placed on the right side of your head.
