To fix forward head posture, hunchback, or rounded shoulders once and for all, we need to do 3 different types of exercises—(i)STRETCH the 2 main muscles that pull our head & shoulders forward, (ii)STRENGTHEN the 3 main muscles that pull our head & shoulders back, and (iii)MOBILISE any restricted joints in the spine & breastbone. You need to address ALL three areas for success.

-----------------
These 5 exercises work on all of these issues. And they’re very effective for neck pain too. If you do them regularly, you can not only improve your neck hump (text neck)… you’ll avoid a world of problems in the neck & shoulders.
