Sit or stand tall and gently roll your shoulders back and down
Interlace your fingers and reach your arms forward, rounding your upper back
Hug yourself tightly and gently pull your shoulders apart
Place both hands behind your head and slowly open your elbows wide, then bring them forward
Sit in a chair and clasp your hands behind your neck, then gently extend your upper back over the chair back
Lie on a foam roller placed across your upper back and slowly extend over it
Place a tennis ball between your upper back and a wall and lean into it
Rotate your upper body slowly from side to side
Take deep breaths while relaxing your shoulders and upper back
Stop immediately if you feel pain, numbness, tingling, or dizziness
