ENTER BACKSCHOOLThese exercises should be performed under the supervision of a health care practitioner. While they are designed to minimize injury if done in correctly they may cause injury. Please watch closely and make sure you understand how to perform them before trying them.
In the beginning, God said let there be the Core, and it was done. From then on we as humans have struggled to get it in shape.
The Deep Neck Flexors are often overlooked in the neck, but they are key to proper neck function. This exercise trains your brain to properly use them to flex your neck.
The cervical extension exercise is one of the best corrective exercises for the upper back and neck. This one exercise can help with neck and upper back stiffness and pain, by getting this area to function more properly.
Another excellent upper back and lower neck stretching exercise, designed to help create extension in the upper back, to combat the humping of the upper back that sitting at the computer all day can create.
This corrective exercise helps your brain dissociate the shoulder blades from the ribcage, as well as teaching it to raise your arms, while not shrugging your shoulders up.
The Levator Scapulae muscle is an important muscle linking the shoulder blade to the neck. Often tightness in this muscle can cause either or both neck pain and shoulder blade pain. This stretch can help calm a muscle that has tightened from computer work.
This is a nice general stretch for the muscles of the back of the neck.
The Suboccipital Muscles can often cause headaches when they get tight and sore. Try this stretch to help relieve some tension that can lead to headaches.
The Upper Trapezius muscles can cause a lot of problems for people. Tightness in these muscles can restrict neck movement, and can cause the typical “Ram’s Horn” headaches that start in the back of the head and wrap up above the ear, and into the back of the eye. Doing this stretch can give some relief.
The Rhomboids are shoulder stabilizers, and they can become tight in people who use their shoulders a lot. Knots along the shoulder blade can cause significant discomfort. To help this, do this stretch daily to release the tension that builds up.
This is probably a better way to stretch the pectoralis minor muscle. Give both ways a try, and do whichever works better for you.
This is another way to stretch the subscapularis muscle. This one is quite good, so try it and see what you think.
The subscapularis is one of the main centering muscles of the shoulder joint, so in order for it to work properly, it’s important to keep it loosened up by stretching it.
The main shoulder stabilizer of the rotator cuff, this workhorse of the shoulder needs to be kept in tip top shape, as it is the most commonly injured tendon due to how hard it works. Stretch it daily to keep it flexible.
The sleeper stretch may be one of the best shoulder stretches. It is hard to do properly, but if you can do it right, it is an excellent shoulder releasing stretch.
The Upper Back and Mid Back is an important intersection in the torso. It is a mobility point (or at least it SHOULD be) where the shoulder blade can fix to to stabilize the shoulder so that movement can occur at the glenohumeral joint.

The Pterygoids are responsible for the final stages of Jaw opening including the translation of the jaw forward. If they are tight or dysfunction, it can lead to clicking in the TMJ.
This is a great stretch for the Masseter muscle, getting deep into the various fibers that make it up. Followed with Mouth Opening Exercise this can help reset the function of the TMJ.
Along with the Post Isometric Pterygoid Stretch this exercise helps reset the function of the Pterygoids, ensuring normal jaw opening and closing, and decreasing the clicking, popping and pain associated with Pterygoid dysfunction.
The Resisted Jaw Opening exercise helps to strengthen and co-ordinate Masseter and accessory jaw opening muscle function.
