Welcome to the Age of the Hunched Human
Let’s face it—our ancestors would be horrified. Imagine an early Homo sapiens, vigorous, upright, built for endurance hunting and survival. Now, compare that to a modern human—hunched over a screen, shoulders collapsing, head dangling like a dying sunflower. Welcome to Tech Neck, the musculoskeletal horror show brought to you by smartphones, laptops, and our sedentary lifestyles.
You, my dear reader, might already feel it—that nagging stiffness at the base of your skull, the tension crawling down your upper back, the headaches creeping in after a long day. This is no accident. Evolution never designed us to stare at tiny screens for 12 hours a day. Nature built us for movement, but we chose TikTok instead. The longer you wait, the more your neck will resemble a petrified log. But don't worry, I'm here to help you prevent that.
But don’t worry—I’m not here to guilt-trip you into abandoning technology and living in a cave (although, honestly, it would help). I’m here to fix your neck before it turns into a petrified log.
What Is Tech Neck, and Why Is It So Dangerous?
Tech Neck (or Forward Head Posture) is what happens when your head creeps forward, placing immense strain on your cervical spine. For every inch your head moves forward, it adds an extra 10–15 lbs of pressure on your neck muscles—it’s like your head is doing a never-ending deadlift without proper form.
Symptoms include:
Chronic neck and shoulder tension (because your muscles are desperately trying to hold up your giant head).
Frequent headaches (caused by tight suboccipitals crushing your nerves).
Upper back pain and stiffness (because your poor traps are doing all the work).
Rounded shoulders and chest tightness (thanks to hours of “keyboard slouching”).
Decreased lung capacity (yes, bad posture even messes with your breathing).
Evolutionary Disaster: How We Got Here
If a time-traveling Homo erectus saw you right now, they’d probably assume you were injured. Our ancestors had powerful neck muscles, broad shoulders, and a naturally upright posture. They used their bodies for climbing, running, and hunting—activities that reinforced a strong, functional spine.
Then came the modern world, and everything changed. The invention of chairs, desks, and screens slowly transformed our posture. By the time smartphones arrived, it was all over. The human neck, once a masterpiece of evolutionary engineering, had become a dysfunctional mess of overworked traps, tight suboccipitals, and locked-up fascia.
But there’s good news: I can reverse it.

Real Case Study: The CEO with a 45° Head Tilt
A few months ago, a patient came to me—a high-powered CEO who spent 10+ hours a day on Zoom calls. His head had permanently shifted forward at an unnatural 45-degree angle, his shoulders rounded, and his breathing was shallow.
After three sessions of JANMI Soft Tissue Therapy, his neck pain was reduced by 70%, his headaches disappeared, and—most importantly—he could finally breathe properly again. This could be your story too, a story of relief and hope.
