To fix tech neck, focus on strengthening deep neck muscles and stretching tight chest/neck muscles with exercises like head extensions, wall angels, doorway chest stretches, and shoulder blade squeezes. Regular movement and chiropractic adjustments are also key to relieving strain from forward head posture and prolonged sitting.  

Whether or not to let a chiropractor adjust your neck is a personal decision that should be made in consultation with a healthcare professional. While chiropractic adjustments can be effective for some types of neck pain and related issues, it's important to be aware of potential risks and discuss them with your doctor or chiropractor. 

While there is no direct evidence that chiropractic care causes strokes, studies show a non-causal association between neck manipulation and vertebrobasilar artery (VBA) strokes, particularly in young adults under 45. This association is likely due to patients seeking chiropractic care for the early symptoms of an arterial dissection, which can lead to stroke. The risk appears similar to that of seeing a primary care physician for similar symptoms.

Waking up with neck pain is often linked to sleeping in an awkward position, using an unsupportive pillow, or underlying muscle strain, but can also be a sign of a more serious issue like arthritis or injury.

"Text neck," also known as "tech neck," is a condition causing neck pain and stiffness due to prolonged forward head posture while using electronic devices, leading to strain on neck muscles and the spine.
