Ok i have said it before but since you are a new here i will say it here so you don't have to go look for it. I feel you may have hypertension in your neck which is when your tendons (imagine are like coiled springs) are, over a time, uncoiled and weakend so that they go floppy. Thus, meaning that the muscles in the neck have to take on more weight to sustain the stability. Go to your gp and tell him/her. See what they see. If it is what i say, ask for neck strengthing excercises. _________________ Leaving on June 4th Back to top bod8 Posted: Thu Mar 27, 2008 1:44 am    Post subject: Supreme Jointcracker Joined: Mar 24, 2008 Posts: 1034 Location: South-westerly but i pretty much have told my gp(s) this and they still wont do anything. i have to go again anyway so i might mention it though. oh that reminds me, are you allowed to mention 2 different issues at an appointment? i never was at my last surgery Back to top Blaze Posted: Fri Mar 28, 2008 3:47 am    Post subject: Supreme Jointcracker Joined: Jul 15, 2007 Posts: 1463 Location: Sweden I guess so. Yes must do because i often do - i am ill quite a bit. Well then, either the doctor is ignorant of this or he is lazy and didn't do it. Believe me it works because i told somebody to do it and he told me what happened. _________________ Leaving on June 4th Back to top MasterCracker Posted: Fri Mar 28, 2008 11:27 am    Post subject: Elite Jointcracker Joined: Feb 16, 2008 Posts: 314 Location: Cali Blaze .... coiled springs? Tendons are made up of STRONG parallel muscle fibers. No springs or coils. every one has different ROM limitations. Some peoples tendons/muscles are more flexible than others for many reasons. Perfectly Noraml. But nobodys springs are uncoiling buddy. Back to top Blaze Posted: Sat Mar 29, 2008 1:42 am    Post subject: Supreme Jointcracker Joined: Jul 15, 2007 Posts: 1463 Location: Sweden Yeh but the image is of a spring. The constant cracking is weakening it - ask a physiotherapist - they can tell straight away. Why do people always get stiff necks - clearlY! that isn't what nature intended is it - to cause that amount of discomfort by allowing us to do something that supposedly does no damage _________________ Leaving on June 4th Back to top MasterCracker Posted: Sat Mar 29, 2008 3:38 am    Post subject: Elite Jointcracker Joined: Feb 16, 2008 Posts: 314 Location: Cali clearly nature intended neck pain or people wouldn't have it all the time. Its part of life. Ever met anyone who's never had neck pain. It happens from many other things than cracking. But cracking Clearly is natural. Simply because it happens. remember nature created arthritis and scoleosis and as cruel as they are they are also natural. Nature can be as cruel as it can be kind Sorry buddy no springs wrong analogy pick up an anatomy book and and look at the neck muscles, (SCM,scalenes, levator scapula, etc.) then try to explain the 'coiled spring ' theory again. I understand what your saying, but it's simply not true, NOTHING uncoils. If you crack/stretch so often that your range of motion increases, in turn your muscles/Tendons become more flexible (NO Uncoiled Springs?) and STRONGER w an increased ROM. As for the joints, repetitious motion, usually w weight is what usually causes joint damage or joint problems.(also accidents and disease) Running(weight on knees) Tennis(swinging HARD) Carpal Tunnel ( non stop finger or wrist action). Serious repetitions. Cracking your knuckles 20 times a day is not like typeing for 40 hrs a week every week for 20 yrs. The typer would have the damage not the Cracker. You might be a candidate , you crack AND type on this blog ALOT. you maybe setting youself up. lol All that typeing (And Video game playing) is way worse for the joints and muslcles of your hand than simply cracking your joints, by stretching the way that nature intended.

Also on websites the analogy is used. And i have been here for a while and an active user so i will have posted more than others. _________________ Leaving on June 4th Back to top bod8 Posted: Mon Apr 21, 2008 10:19 pm    Post subject: Supreme Jointcracker Joined: Mar 24, 2008 Posts: 1034 Location: South-westerly Blaze wrote: Ok Bod8 - this is what i am pretty certain you have.

(You, me, MC?) And i know others login quite a lot aswell but don't post, maybe we need to persuade them to come back on.. i dunno. Back to top Blaze Posted: Thu Apr 24, 2008 2:00 am    Post subject: Supreme Jointcracker Joined: Jul 15, 2007 Posts: 1463 Location: Sweden Won't work because chances are they are busy or forgot or stopped etc and you don't know their emails. Plus even if 3 people message JC it will not matter as it doesn't send an email to his msn or YM when he recieves - i think. Well it doesn't happen for me. _________________ Leaving on June 4th Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First     Goto page Previous  1, 2 Page 2 of 2 Jointcrackers Forum Index » Joint cracking » neck cracking/stiff Jump to: Select a forum General----------------Feedback & suggestionsOff-TopicHelp Joint Cracking----------------IntroductionsJoints in generalJoint cracking Medical----------------SymptomsDiagnosisCausesTreatment  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum DAJ Glass (1.0.5) template by Dustin Baccetti EQ graphic based off of a design from www.freeclipart.nu Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2002 phpBB Group Forums © All logos and trademarks in this site are property of their respective owner.
