Step by Step

  1. If you need to improve the range of movement in your Pecs then this is a great exercise
  2. Remember these exercises should be pain free during after and the next day. The most that you should feel is a strong stretch sensation
  3. Each exercise should be held for 20-30 seconds at the end of range and you should aim to perform all of these exercises between 4 to 6 times per day
  4. In a door way, first squeeze your shoulder blades down and backwards to open out the chest
  5. Next abduct the shoulder out to the side to 90 degrees, also bend the elbow to 90 degrees and have the hand palm side forwards and pointing up to the ceiling
  6. Now step forward as to place your forearm and hand onto the door frame and step into the door as to gain a stretch in the chest

Online Physiotherapy

Put simply this is Physio done via either telephone or video over the internet. Skype and facetime are examples of this.

Contrary to popular belief online physiotherapy can be very effective and it can help the same injuries that face to face physio can help. I have helped many people with injuries such as disc prolapses, tennis elbow, neck pain and much more).
