@pt_with_jt: 3 reasons patients want to marry me after I show them this stretch: 1. It’s easy to do, no equipment needed, can do it anytime while you’re stuck sitting down 2. Opens the ribcage, mobilizes the thoracic spine, gets some blood flowing through cold back muscles that helps loosens them up 3. GREAT for desk workers that get back pain/stiffness after sitting for a long time Step-by-step instructions: 1. Cross legs 2. Hands behind head 3. Fully rotate to one side 4. Hold that rotation and side bend fully to the same side 5. Breathe into the OPPOSITE rib cage of the side you turned to, trying to move all the air to that lung 6. Exhale fully as you sink into more of a side bend 7. Repeat breath 2-4 more times physicaltherapy #physicaltherapist #physio #physiotherapy #physicaltherapystudent #physicaltherapylife #physicaltherapyworks #PTworks #physicaltherapyhumor #backstretch #deskstretch #backpain #backpainrelief #backpainexercises #neckpain #neckpainrelief #neckpainexercises
