Posture, Mobility & Flexibility Exercises
Improve Balance, Range of Motion, and Everyday Comfort
Chin retractions are a simple yet powerful exercise to improve neck posture, reduce tension, and strengthen the stabilizing muscles at the front of the neck. They are especially helpful for people who spend long hours sitting, looking down, or working at a computer.
Chin tucks are one of the most effective exercises for improving neck posture, reducing tension, and strengthening the deep stabilizing muscles of the neck. Adding variations, such as gentle head rotations, can further improve mobility and control.
The supine chin tuck is a foundational neck exercise that helps strengthen the deep stabilizing muscles of the neck while encouraging proper spinal alignment. Performing it lying down provides extra support, making it an excellent starting point for beginners or those with neck discomfort.
The Walk Your Hand Up the Wall exercise is a gentle and effective way to improve shoulder flexion, mobility, and range of motion. It’s especially helpful for those recovering from shoulder tightness, stiffness, or postural imbalances, and can be done anywhere with minimal equipment.
The Walk Your Hand Up the Wall (Shoulder Abduction) is a gentle mobility exercise designed to improve shoulder abduction range of motion and overall shoulder flexibility. It’s especially useful for counteracting tightness from sitting, computer work, or limited overhead movement.
Wall Angels are a posture-focused exercise that help improve shoulder mobility, strengthen upper back muscles, and train proper alignment of the spine.
The Stick Assisted Active Range of Motion (AAROM) exercise for shoulder abduction helps improve shoulder mobility, flexibility, and strength. Using a stick or dowel provides gentle assistance to move the arm through a greater range of motion, making it ideal for shoulder rehabilitation, stiffness, or postural correction.
The Stick Assisted Active Range of Motion (AAROM) with Shoulder Flexion exercise helps improve shoulder mobility, flexibility, and control. Using a stick or dowel allows gentle assistance from the opposite arm, making it ideal for restoring movement after injury, surgery, or periods of stiffness.
Cat-Cow is a gentle, flowing exercise that improves spinal mobility, core engagement, and posture awareness. It’s often used to relieve tension in the back and enhance overall flexibility.
The Ankle Active-Assisted Range of Motion (AAROM) exercise helps improve ankle mobility, flexibility, and strength in the dorsiflexors. It’s commonly used to support proper gait, reduce stiffness, and aid in recovery from injury or post-surgery.
Strap-assisted knee flexion in sitting is a gentle exercise that improves knee mobility and flexibility while engaging the hamstrings. It’s ideal for rehabilitation, post-surgery recovery, or reducing stiffness from prolonged sitting.
Median nerve flossing is a gentle mobility exercise designed to mobilize the median nerve along its path from the neck and shoulder down to the hand. It can reduce nerve tension, improve arm and wrist flexibility, and relieve mild tingling or numbness in the forearm, thumb, and fingers.
Ulnar nerve flossing is a gentle mobility exercise that helps mobilize the ulnar nerve along its path from the neck and shoulder down to the hand. It can reduce nerve tension, improve elbow and wrist flexibility, and relieve mild tingling or numbness in the forearm and hand.
Seated Radial Nerve Flossing is a gentle nerve mobility exercise performed in a supported position to help improve the movement of the radial nerve through the arm. It’s ideal for those who need more stability or are working through irritation, tightness, or sensitivity in the arm, wrist, or hand.
