“Not bending the neck for too long time, adopting healthy lifestyle and doing proper spine exercises are all helpful,” said Dr Ye Xiulan from Shanghai Longhua Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital’s rehabilitation department, which taught local residents a neck and waist protection exercise during the event.
