3 Effective Stretches for Shoulder Stiffness
Prolonged forward-leaning posture from long hours of desk work can cause the muscles around your shoulders to become stiff and tense. Today, we'd like to introduce 3 simple stretches you can do while sitting!
① Neck side stretch (30 seconds × both sides)
Place your right hand on the left side of your head and slowly tilt to the right.
You'll know it's working when you feel a gentle stretch along the side of your neck. Remember to relax and keep breathing throughout.
② Shoulder shrug release (10 reps)
Pull both shoulders up toward your ears, then drop them down all at once.
③ Chest opening stretch (30 seconds)
Clasp your hands behind your back and pull your shoulder blades together as you open your chest.
This helps reset the chest area that tends to become compressed from desk work.
