Tips for performing Thoracic Mobilisation

Here are some tips to performing the Thoracic Mobilisation exercise that we highly suggest you take into consideration to prevent injury or pain: 

  • Always look at the palm that is facing down
  • Do not round your shoulders forward instead, keep your chest up
  • Try and keep the arms at shoulder level (in the beginning it may be hard to do this but in time, you will build endurance and get better at it)
  • Do not tense or elevate your shoulders but rather, relax them

Wrapping up
