Its actually not true that it just helps you relax. Their are many benefits. For one thing It improves circulation. The knots and adhesions within your muscles can be caused by improper posture, injurie, unbalanced muscle strength and others. They act like glue on the muscle to prevent it from stretching and contracting to its full capacity. This obviously reduces its strength and, in turn, puts excessive strain on other muscles or other areas within the muscle. When these are removed /reduced the muscle or muscle group is stronger and looser, which removes excess stress on other adjacent areas. Not to mention muscles can put pressure on nerves which then get impinged and that can cause any number of symptoms. Ever known somone to have numbness and tingling in their arm? A lot of times that is the brachial nerve getting pinched by the muscles in the neck and shoulders. Many times the muscles in the neck and shoulders can become too tight from sitting over a computer for many hours a day or from doing a lot of push-ups and no back exercises to balance out strength and posture.

If there is no pain involved (when you move your neck laterally and up and down) then it is probably your cervical vertebrae (C1 - C7) Some people's cervical vertebrae protrude more than others.

They are a massive bundle of nerve fibers originating from pyramidal cells in the precentral motor and premotor area and in the postcentral gyrus. Their course from their origin in the cortex to cell bodies in the spinal cord is somewhat complex as is their function. To provide a simple answer, I will say that one of the primary functions of these tracts is to provide a pathway so that your brain can control your skelatal muscles for purposfull movement.

The sternocleidomastoid, as its name implies, extends from the sternum and clavicle to the posterolateral base of the skull (mastoid area). It participates in complex movements, including anterior flexion and extension, lateral flexion  and rotation of the neck and spine. It's also one of the secondary muscles involved in inspiration movements.

You should always stretch from head to toe and back.  Before lifting you should stretch your neck by doing neck circles and then to shoulders with arms extended circles and then down the body with torso rotations and then thighs with toe touches and calves.  After your lifting reverse the order, you feel alivened afterwards.

Cyropracters are good for straightnening boies. You have to first access the cause of why your neck is bent? It normally works like a chain, so it could be your hamstrings, pulling your back, pulling your shoulders pulling your neck. General streching of the thights, bum, back, shouloders and neck should loosen everything up. Dont bounce when you strech though. Heidi
