Stretch of the Month

 
 

Upper Trapezius Stretch

Lower your arm to hold the bottom of your seat, anchoring your shoulder down during the stretch. Gently bend your neck to the side away from your lowered arm until you feel a light stretch along the head, neck and shoulder. Avoid stretching too strong. Hold 20 to 30 seconds while relaxing with deep breathing. Repeat 3 times each side.

Stretching Tip: A lighter, more comfortable stretch maintained for 30 to 60 seconds is more favorable than a shorter more intense stretch. You should be able to relax the area under stretch during the exercise.

These stretches are meant as general guidelines, if you have any concerns or questions regarding your medical conditions, please consult your physician.
