WE WILL FOCUS ON:

1. Posture check - SPINE ALIGNMENT

You will get personal attention in order to achieve/maintain a good posture as I will work with a small group of people.

2. Stretch tight muscles - STRETCHING EXERCISES

Stretching increases the range of motion and flexibility of your spine. Several studies have found that stretching and yoga improve spinal mobility, especially for adults. It makes sense that you might experience back pain if the muscles supporting or working with the spine are tight.

These muscles include:

Erector spinae- Provide support on either side of the spine. Help straighten the back.

Oblique - Supports the torso, connects the abdominals to the lower back muscles and aids in rotation.

Glutes and hip flexors- These muscles help distribute force from the lower to upper body and take pressure off the spine.

Pecs and shoulders- Rounding your back or slouching when you sit puts stress on the cervical (upper) and thoracic (middle) spine.

3. Strengthen the muscles that support a good posture - CORE STABILITY EXERCISES

The spine is our body central support structure. Your spine is responsible for carrying the weight of your head, supporting the torso and arms allowing your body to move in every direction. Keeping the postural muscles strong helps protect your spine and prevent injuries.
