2. Semont-Toupet maneuver: An alternative approach

The Semont-Toupet Maneuver, less known in the U.S. but equally effective, is suitable for those with limited neck flexibility. This maneuver can be easily performed at home. Begin by sitting upright on a flat surface and turn your head towards the problematic side. Lie down swiftly on your opposite side, keeping your head turned over your shoulder for 10-30 seconds. Then, sit up abruptly and, with your head still turned, lie down quickly on your right side, turning your nose into the surface. Stay in this position for another 10-30 seconds before sitting up again.
