How to Correct Osteoporosis Posture With a Corner Stretch

User-Submitted Article

Osteoporosis can change your posture, and that can produce chronic back pain. It can also reduce your ability to take deep breaths, and bring your body out of balance, putting you at a greater risk for a fall. Luckily, this issue is usually muscular and can be corrected with some simple stretches.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. 1

Stand facing a corner at arms length from the wall. Place your palms against the wall with your arms straight but not locked. Your arms should be at shoulder height and shoulder width apart. If you want a deeper stretch, place your hands further apart.

2. 2

Keeping your heels on the floor, bend your elbows and bring your nose and chest towards the wall. Don't not let your hips come forward. Keep your back straight and your hips in line. Come forward until you feel a stretch in the chest. Focus on squeezing your shoulder blades together.

3. 3

Hold the position for several deep breaths. Relax your shoulders and do not lift your shoulders to your ears. Repeat 2 or 3 times.
