“Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder is not an incurable, hopeless mental disorder. PTSD has been shown to have physical roots. I hope you will join us in the years to come as we seek to eliminate PTSD from the trauma equation.”
Dr. John E. Upledger
In 1999, Dr Upledger and a team of craniosacral therapists led 22 Vietnam veterans in a groundbreaking study using a protocol co-designed with the West Palm Beach Veterans Administration Medical Centre. A post-program report by an independent licensed psychologist confirmed that the veterans experienced fewer symptoms by the conclusion of the program, most notably related to obsessive/compulsive behaviours, depression, lack of motivation, feelings of alienation, and total number and severity of general symptoms. More than a 95% correlation was noted between the improvements and the craniosacral therapy sessions the veterans received.
Here are some excerpts from the study:

Tech neck, commonly found in office workers spending long hours looking at screens, can be resolved by regular neck exercises and improved desk ergonomics. Regular breaks and bonus exercises such as the 'double chin' method can also help to alleviate symptoms.
Desk job neck strain can be mitigated through ergonomic monitor setup, strategic workspace equipment positioning, regular movement breaks, posture-strengthening activities and tech-smart solutions. A combination of these methods can alleviate discomfort and improve long-term neck health.
Desk workers can relieve neck pain through regular neck rotations, shoulder rolls, and chin tucks. Also, an ergonomic desk setup, including proper monitor positioning and supportive chair, can prevent strain. Regular movement breaks are also essential to enhance blood flow and prevent stiffness. Severe cases may need professional treatments like physiotherapy, massage therapy, and chiropractic care.
