Head Cars

Head CARs (Controlled Articular Rotations) improve neck mobility and strengthen the surrounding muscles. The head is moved slowly and in a controlled manner in all directions – forward, backward, to the sides, and in rotation. This exercise supports joint health, promotes coordination, and helps relieve tense muscles.

Spine CARs follow the same principle but involve the entire spine. By consciously moving individual sections, flexibility is improved, posture is stabilized, and the back muscles are activated. Regular practice ensures a supple and resilient spine.
