Feeling that ache between your shoulders again? Long hours, tension, and stress all build where your neck meets your upper back. Most stretches miss the deep spots, but this simple reset helps: two Super Pinky Balls (tennis balls will work too), a wall, and mindful breaths. Release tension, open your spine, and feel your body unwind. Take two minutes, breathe, and let go—you deserve it.

💥 Knee pain often starts elsewhere — stiff ankles or tight hips make knees take the load. This small ball flow restores balance, improving mobility, stability, and strength through your hips, knees, and ankles with slow, controlled, full-range movement.

💥 Tight neck?

It might start lower—in the lats and underarm area. When tight, these tissues pull on your shoulders and back, overloading your neck. Try rolling gently under your armpit and side ribs with a ball or foam roller. Breathe deeply, go slow. This can ease tension, and improve posture.
