How to Make Your Own Neck Brace

When I woke up yesterday one muscle in my neck was totally in spasm. I threatened it by saying: "If you don't stop this, I am going to rip you right out of my body!"

Alas, it did not stop, so I used a towel and a piece of rope to make a neck brace, which really helped me keep from stressing my neck further.

Instructables member superlefty (who is also my sister) was luckily in town and was able to help me demonstrate how you can make your own neck brace too.

Check out her writing at www.superlefty.com. It's awesome.

Step 1: Materials

This one is pretty darn simple, all you need is a towel and a piece of rope thats at least two feet long.

Funny, I just wrapped a sheet around my neck before this.:)

About a month ago I had a neck sprain and I completely forgot about this. I really wish I had remembered!
