Stretching! 



While working from home, or spending more time doing remote work and less time out and about/face to face with clients we are finding ourselves spending more time in front of the computer.  That can hurt!
We’ll guide you through some stretches and range-of-motion exercises to keep you limber and feeling great. 
Consider these exercises at the beginning of your workday, and periodically during the day as your tension and time dictate.  

Remember:  Go easy--the goal here is to touch the edges of our range of motion, not push past.  
Remember: Breathe!  The length of time to hold a stretch is ideally the span of about 3 deep breaths. 

Modify as needed for your own body, pain levels, and history.
