A strong neck

Stay relaxed throughout the day with a strong neck

Whether it’s tension in the neck, headaches or a stiff neck – many people suffer regularly from neck pain. The causes are varied: stress, poor posture, prolonged sitting or one-sided strain. Often, the root of the problem lies in weak neck muscles. With targeted neck training at Kieser, you strengthen the deep muscles surrounding your cervical vertebrae. This reduces tension, increases your resistance to fatigue and improves stability and mobility in everyday life.

Strong neck muscles carry the head effortlessly – relieving not only your body, but also your life.

The Problem

Varied and Complex

Neck pain can become a serious burden – especially when it occurs regularly and persistently. The causes are many: from poor posture and muscle tension to arthritis, past injuries or herniated discs. In addition, lifestyle habits can negatively impact your health in a short time.

A typical example is the so-called “text neck” – a result of frequent smartphone use. Constantly looking downward places unnatural strain on the cervical vertebrae, leading to tension and pain.

But what can you do to sustainably promote neck health in daily life? In addition to a basic understanding of potential causes, preventive measures help: ergonomically adapted workstations, conscious breaks during the day, and targeted movement. Particularly effective is systematic strength training that strengthens your neck muscles, corrects poor posture and not only counteracts existing symptoms but also contributes to a stable and healthy posture in the long term.

Kieser in Numbers

Poor posture is a major risk factor—and it’s not just about sitting or standing. Even during sleep, non-ergonomic sleeping positions can trigger discomfort.

Other contributing factors include heavy smartphone use, prolonged sitting, lack of physical activity, and insufficient muscular balance. In particular, weak neck muscles significantly increase the likelihood of pain.

But you can actively counteract this—with greater awareness of your posture and health-oriented strength training targeting the deep neck muscles.

That’s how much an adult head weighs – placing considerable strain on your neck muscles, especially with poor posture.

This is how much pressure your cervical vertebrae endure when your head tilts forward by 45 degrees.

Neck pain

Chronic neck pain and weak muscles often become a vicious cycle: when the neck loses strength, it becomes unstable – and the pain keeps coming back. If you want to strengthen your neck in a targeted way, training on the computer-assisted Cervical Extension machine is especially helpful. This supports your muscles effectively and ensures greater stability and wellbeing.

More stability
Strengthen the deep cervical extensors for an upright posture and greater stability in your cervical vertebrae.
More mobility
Improve the range of motion in your cervical vertebrae – for more flexibility in everyday life and freer movement.
Less pain
Targeted training improves the mobility of your cervical vertebrae – and can noticeably reduce tension and pain.
Avoid surgery
With targeted strength training, you strengthen your neck muscles – and can effectively prevent possible surgical interventions.
Improved quality of life
Targeted training boosts your wellbeing – for a more active, mobile and pain-free life.
