To get started, an upper trap stretch, levator scap stretch, and scalene/sternocleidomastoid (SCM) stretch are excellent ways to help loosen up a sore and tight neck.
For additional benefit, include a chest/pec stretch and a chin tuck in the routine - both of which can be a great help in stretching out the muscles in the neck and shoulder area.
