Please consider the PostureJac as a convenient exercise device for treating this condition in the clinic or on an ad hoc basis. Custom exercises include lateral rotation of the rotator cuff, scapular retraction, stretching upper trapezius & levator scapula and recruiting the lower trapezius, deep neck flexors, etc.. The MyoPressers are handy accessories that can apply pressure to the upper trapezius, levator scapulae and pectoralis minor.
ReplyDeleteThe unique design of the PostureJac uses scapular depression to extend cervical stretching.
