Suggestions for stretching a suit?

Hey there!

I have an Akona 2 pc 6.5 mm suit. I am having a small problem though and I would love a suggestion or two.

Basically when I got the suit, i didn't have a hood to put with it. I got a hood and went for a dive and lo and behold, now things are too tight and the neck of the suit, with the hood, is too tight and I have issues with breathing.

is there any way to relax the neoprene a little bit so that I can stretch it and take out some of the tension? The rest of the suit fits great but the neck needs a little bit of loosening up.

any ideas would be greatly appreciated

thanks.
