Across Chest Shoulder Stretch

Expert Advice

Do not force your arm across your body; use a gentle pull to feel a comfortable stretch without pain.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Stand or sit with your back straight.
  2. Bring your right arm across your chest at about shoulder height.
  3. Place your left hand on your right elbow to support the arm.
  4. Gently pull your right arm closer to your chest until you feel a stretch in the shoulder.
  5. Hold for 15-30 seconds, then switch arms and repeat.
  6. Perform 2-3 sets for each arm.
