How to Improve Back Mobility with Band Rollouts Thoracic Extension | Physical Therapy, NJ

Improve Back Mobility With Band Rollouts Thoracic Extension! ⁉️ IS LIMITED THORACIC EXTENSION THE MOST COMMON SPINAL MOBILITY RESTRICTION?! ⁉️...we would say so! And, if you are dealing with neck or low back pain ... are you making sure that you work on it!? The thoracic spine, AKA “the mid-back” is one of the most common places that people experience mobility restrictions. One reason for this may be the prolonged time many people spend slouched into mid-back flexion while sitting throughout their day. The most common restrictions at the mid-back are into extension and rotation. When the mid-back can not adequately extend, this will tend to cause compensations (and likely increased stress) on the low back and cervical spine. And therefore may play a huge role in low back and neck pain! In this series we will demonstrate a variety of exercises that will help to improve mobility, control, and strength of thoracic extension. This band rollout + thoracic extension exercise can be extremely challenging when done correctly, as it requires not only movement into thoracic extension.. but also external rotator strength and end range shoulder flexion ROM. (Which are also very common limitations in those with pain). It does it all. An absolute staple for so many of our mobility and early strengthening programs for this exact reason! _________________________________________ 🗣 TwinBoro PT: Unlocking the door to optimized musculoskeletal health while providing a trusted source to guide you toward moving & feeling the way you should! 🗣 COMMENT and let’s discuss!
