I spent two years trying to fix the bump at the back of my neck. Posture braces. Chin tucks from YouTube. Monthly chiropractor visits. Nothing stuck. The hump was still there every time I caught my side profile. Then a physical therapist told me something that changed everything: "Stop stretching around the knot. Release the muscle that's causing it." She was talking about the SCM — two thick cables that run down each side of your neck. Years of screens tighten them, and they physically pull your head forward until your spine curves into that bump. I started using a tool that grips and releases the SCM in 10 minutes before bed. Same technique a PT does with their hands — except I'm lying on my couch. Week one, my neck felt longer. Week three, my collar sat flat for the first time in years. Week four, I put on a backless top and didn't think twice. If you've tried everything and still see that bump in the mirror — it's not your posture. It's one locked muscle. Release it and your body does the rest.
