Is your neck pain, headache, or even dizziness coming from one overlooked muscle? In this video, Dr. Jon Saunders breaks down how the sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscle could be the hidden culprit behind a wide range of symptoms—neck tension, headaches, jaw pain, eye watering, and even dizziness.
✅ This is a 3-step routine (+1 bonus!) you can follow at home:
0:00 Introduction
1:27 Trigger Point Release – pinpoint and release those pain generators
3:45 Myofascial Release – smooth out tension in the muscle belly
5:25 Targeted Stretch – lengthen and decompress the SCM
6:52 BONUS: Strengthen the muscle to support long-term correction
8:26 Conclusion
💡 This is one of the most common areas I treat in the clinic—and when done right, it can be a game-changer.
