As a student, you certainly know for sore shoulders or stiff neck when you're sitting in the nose of the books. But that's happily advisable.  

There are really many cool things about being students - the social community, university parties and the feeling of having all the life in front of them.  

But one of the less strange things is sore shoulders and a stiff neck that typically comes when you sit bent over the books or in front of your computer for a longer period of time.  

Fortunately, there is something you can do about the genes. Odense Clinic Physical Therapy & Acupuncture knows everything for sore shoulders, and they give their best tips for what you can do here.

Make exercises  

Sore shoulders are typically caused by myosis that feels like tough knots. They consist of accumulated waste from the muscles and they come when there is not enough blood flow because you are still in the same position for many hours at a time.  

The blood causes oxygen and nutrients to the muscles, but also removes waste from them. When you sit still, there is no blood to the muscles, which therefore enters an ongoing tension that the body is struggling to get rid of.  

Therefore, it is important to keep your shoulders by moving them once in a while as you study or study. For example, you can do the following exercises:  

• Shoulder Raise
• backstretch
• neck Pull
• Shoulder Pull
• side Pull

Get physiotherapy  

A massage can relieve the symptoms, but if you are interested in becoming the sore shoulders forever, it may be a good idea to visit a physiotherapist. A thorough examination of your body will always be undertaken before starting physiotherapeutic treatment.  

In this way, you find the cause of the problem rather than just relieving the problem. They look at which joints, ligaments, nerves and muscles are involved, and can give you advice and guidance for a better reading and posture.

Stress off with acupuncture  

Common to many students is also that they feel stressed due to exams and expectations. It can also contribute to sore muscles and shoulders because the body releases a substance called cortisol when it is stressed, which causes the muscles to buckle.  

Here acupuncture can help you to stress. With the help of needles, the treatment can help restore the balance of the body so that the muscles can relax.
