Neck – Shoulders Tension Release
The Neck and Shoulders Tension Release class is specifically designed to alleviate stress, restore mobility, and promote relaxation throughout the body. Focusing on areas prone to tension such as the neck, shoulders, and upper back, this class helps counteract stiffness caused by desk work, stress, or daily physical strain. Through the use of foam rollers, TuneUp massage balls, and targeted stretches, participants can unlock tight fascia and relieve discomfort in these key areas.
The session includes calming breathwork to soothe the nervous system and restorative stretches that enhance overall well-being. This recovery-focused class provides deep, somatic relaxation while addressing both physical and emotional aspects of stress. By connecting to the body in a mindful way, participants experience benefits that go beyond just the muscles—helping to release emotional tension and promote mental clarity.
The neck, shoulders, and back are common sites where stress accumulates, often leading to poor posture, tightness, and chronic pain. This class not only addresses these physical concerns but also promotes relaxation of the entire body, supporting recovery on a subconscious level.
Participants will:
- Activate the parasympathetic nervous system, aiding the body’s recovery state
- Reduce overall inflammation
- Release muscle knots and trigger points
- Enhance flexibility and mobility
- Promote better circulation for healing
- Support sports performance and quicker recovery
Glow Yoga’s focus on fascia care sets this class apart. Fascia is the connective tissue that surrounds every muscle, bone, and organ, and when it tightens, it leads to pain, chronic tension, and even joint issues. By caring for fascia, the class helps maintain body elasticity and alleviate stiffness.
This class, led by Natasha, founder of Glow Yoga & Wellness in San Francisco, is an essential part of a regular wellness routine. For more insights on chronic inflammation, check out her podcast, “Demystifying Chronic Inflammation.”
