Recently we have seen many people struggling with their breathing. Shallow breathing or chest breathing can cause neck and shoulder pain.
Repetitive shallow breathing decreases oxygen intake, which can impair healing, and cause muscle stiffness and pain.
Learning to breathe deeply will take time and practice.
Place one hand on your belly and the other on your chest. Using your breath, try to move the hand on your belly. The hand should move away from you on inhale and towards you on exhale. Start practicing while lying on your back before going to sleep.
