The purpose of the chin tuck is to promote flexion of the upper cervical vertebrae and extension of the lower cervical vertebrae. Because the exact opposite happens when you have a forward head posture which can increase that kyphotic posture and eventually lead to increased neck pain or a neck hump on the back of your neck from this prolonged position.
One example is to lie on your back in the supine position which is a great way to perform chin tucks. I like placing a towel under your neck and using the same spinning motion like you have a rod between your ears. Just avoid lifting your neck from the table because that engages different muscles that you aren’t trying to target here.
You can also perform chin tucks in a quadruped or hands and knees position. This is a great way to perform neck ROM exercises because there’s less downward pressure on your vertebrae. Just be sure to keep the movements small and focus on nodding your head along the same axis.
To make the chin tuck even more challenging, you can perform the movement with your back against a wall. Try putting a small towel behind your head and maintain pressure against it as you nod your head. You can even get creative with upper extremity movements to advance this exercise even more.
