By: Bodywork Alternatives Problem: Employee’ Solution: To stretch the chest muscles, press the palms of both hands on the lower back to open the chest. To stretch the underarm muscles, place both hands on a wall above your head, take a couple steps back, lower chest and head towards the wall to feel a stretch under the arm. Problem: Employees sit in a chair for extended periods of time. The hamstring muscles are shortened and begin to pull on the torso creating lower back pain. Solution: To stretch the hamstring muscles, lie on your back on the floor, straighten the leg straight into the air, and with a towel or belt wrapped around the bottom of the foot pull the leg towards the nose and then to each year. This slight movement will stretch the entire hamstring. Problem: Employees experience neck tension and often resulting into a headache. Solution: To stretch the neck muscles, tilt the head towards each shoulder. To activate the neck muscles to help them to relax, place your hand on your cheek and turn the head towards the palm of your hand creating resistance. Repeat on each side. Combine these simple stretches with a weight training program and massage therapy to dramatically improve these problem areas.
