To find the correct placement, first feel the back of your head with your fingers. Make your way down towards the base of the skull and you should feel a transition from bone to muscle on either side of the spine. You want the "fingers" of the occipivot to be placed directly on the muscular portion just below the base of the skull. The first few times you use an occipivot, you should have the placement done by a professional to make sure you have sufficient understanding before trying it yourself.
Once in position, tuck your chin backward towards your collarbone, not towards your chest. You should feel a contraction of the deep cervical flexors on the front of your neck. You can feel that this movement puts a stretch on the sub occipitals, which are pinned down by the occipivot. This is also effective through a neurological process known as reciprocal inhibition: as the muscles on the front of the neck contract, the opposing muscles on the back of the neck relax to accommodate.
Recommended sets:
1x sustaining the tuck for 3-5 minutes
