Sit firmly against the back of your chair with feet flat. Interlace your hands behind your head and gently lean backward over the top edge of your chair back, opening your chest toward the ceiling. Hold for 15-30 seconds seconds and release slowly.

Step 2: Practice Scapular Squeezes

Sit tall and let your arms drop naturally by your sides. Pull your shoulder blades back and down as if squeezing a pencil between them. Maintain this squeeze for 5-10 seconds seconds while maintaining deep abdominal breathing, then repeat 10-15 times.

Step 3: Execute Desk Chest Openers

Place your forearms flat against your desk edge. Gently push your chest forward between your arms while drawing your shoulders downward. Wearing comfortable support like the PRODUCT_TITLE with non-removable moulded cups and soft and breathable material ensures complete freedom of movement during this stretch.

Step 4: Reset Neck Alignment with Chin Retractions

Look straight ahead, glide your head backward without tilting your chin up or down. Hold for a couple of seconds to engage deep cervical stabilizers. Pair these movements daily with postural correction design apparel to stay aligned throughout your entire remote shift.
