It's giving...I don't want my remote job to give me back pain💻😣

Try this thoracic mobility exercise to open up your chest and counteract that hunched desk posture. 🙆‍♂️💪

Simply:
- Raise your hands above your head.
- Rotate gently to one side, feeling the stretch in your middle back. Pause at 0:58 and then switch sides.
- For added benefits, lean back slightly in the same position.
Remember, this should feel good, not painful! If you experience discomfort, stop by your local Ivy Rehab. And don't forget—move around or change positions every 30 minutes! 🚶‍♀️🕒
