Some stretches in this routine need extra care. Ask a professional first if you have:
- a neck injury, or dizziness or arm tingling when you move your head
- a shoulder injury or a shoulder that has dislocated before
- osteoporosis or low bone density (avoid deep rounding of the back and strong twists)
- recent back surgery or nerve pain down the leg
- a pregnancy (after about 16 weeks, don’t lie on your back or belly for long, and twist only gently)
Stretch gently and never into pain. StretchUp gives general guidance and is not a medical device.
