Tight Pecs, here you go!! This muscle has a hard task fighting gravity all day while you sit at your computer. It can also get tight as we have increased stress and anxiety wanting to just curl up in the fetal position. It’s time to OPEN UP!!! Stretching this muscle can help with:... *posture *shoulder pain *neck pain * upper back pain #SDPT #wellness #upperback #thoracicspine #posture #neckpain #doorwaystretches #workfromhomelife #myofascialrelease #stretching #flexibility #mobility #3dmovement #physicaltherapy #prevention #sdphysicaltherapy #function #SD #PT #SDfitness #functionfactory #functionalfitness #naturalmedicine

Hamstrings .....3 muscles that bend the knee and extend the thigh/hip. They attach to the bottom of your pelvis and may cause faulty posture if too tight! This stretch can help with: *low back pain *sciatica... *posture *flexibility *running mechanics *walking mechanics *jumping, hopping #SDPT #wellness #upperback #thoracicspine #foamrolling #myofascialrelease #stretching #flexibility #mobility #3dmovement #physicaltherapy #prevention #sdphysicaltherapy #function #SD #PT #hamstrings #lowbackpain #posture

Monday zoom sessions, this exercise is a MUST! Mid back or Thoracic spine can often be a sticky spot for people. This can help improve: *flexibility *neck pain... *back pain *posture *sleep #SDPT #wellness #upperback #thoracicspine #foamrolling #myofascialrelease #stretching #flexibility #mobility #3dmovement #physicaltherapy #prevention #sdphysicaltherapy #function #SD #PT

Calf stretch! The Gastrocnemius and Soleus to get fancy! Dynamic stretching is useful for your muscles to react to movement. My favorite analogy is with a rubber band. Think about maintaining a stretch on that rubber band vs pulling and then relaxing, pulling then relaxing overtime the rubber band will be stretched out but will be able to react within the range you stretched it! ... Stretching the calf can help with: *foot and ankle pain *low back pain *plantar fasciitis *running mechanics *balance #SDPT #wellness #calfstretch #stretching #flexibility #mobility #3dmovement #physicaltherapy #prevention #sdphysicaltherapy #function #SD #PT #stiffness #tight

The Foot It’s the first thing that hits the floor when you walk and should help absorb shock! It needs to be flexible but also stable to push off of to advance the leg. This activity helps with:... *plantar fasciitis *low back pain *general foot pain *knee pain *hip pain 26 bones, 33 joints and 19 muscles make the quite complex! #SDPT #sdphysicaltherapy #wellness #health #physicaltherapy #mobility #flexibility #mostability #SD #prevention
