Yoga Stretches for Stress Relief

The main cause of upper back pain is normally associated with the upper back muscles but it’s actually the pectoris minor muscle in your chest which contracts with bad posture and puts so much strain on the back muscles that they become weak and over stretched. Your dorsal [Thoracic spine] needs to train itself to push forward and this will make your upper back straight.

The goal of these simple stretches is to counter any day to day posture problems.

Shoulder work is a foundation for nearly all hatha yoga poses.
