3 Simple Exercises To Help With Kyphosis

Kyphosis is the exaggerated forward rounding of the back and forward head posture. As shown at the beginning of the video, poor posture such as slouching, carrying heavy backpacks can lead up to this condition.

There are other more serious medical conditions that can cause Kyphosis as osteoporosis, spina bifida, muscular dystrophy and is more common in older women.

For those who are working desk jobs, it’s important to be conscious of your posture and making sure you have a ergonomic work station. You might even catch your chin tucked toward your chest and your upper back slouched while reading this post!

These three exercises just gave me so much immediate relief for my mid-upper back, shoulders and neck discomfort. I feel lighter. Thank you!

[georgevillanueva]

I have ankylosis spondylitis man ain’t no reverse in this game but I always try new things and anything helps even if only mentally so good vid brotha

Truly uplifting intro! 🤩 Loved the joy and determination encapsulated in that effortless "let's fix this!"

Consistency and believing in transformation are utterly important in improving postural kyphosis, therefore a glimpse of optimism works wonders for building motivation. I think this is a wonderful invitation to a workout which can be for some the beginning of their journey towards better posture.

What better way to celebrate the end of a good workout than by (finally) taking a satisfying breath- a treasure which is unfortunately denied to some of us due to chest tightness.

Thank you for your videos and wish you all the best! ❤❤❤

Okay these exercises are the best ones I’ve seen for this

[Victorialeigh-irfn]

My son will definitely start this exercise

[VixxyMcN]

I literally have always maintained good posture and I still developed it and I try everything and the pain is debilitating

[Cawffee]

I dont have a foam roller, can i use a pillow instead?

[Moresco]

I need to do these any more tips for a very rounded back I feel like my muscles by my shoulder blades near my spine literally cause me to hunch over when sitting

[nathanielrutkowski]

I’ve been doing these exercises for days and my pain is only getting worse

Quick clarification: Kyphosis isn’t a problem. People are meant to have a natural curve in their upper back/neck. Hyper-kyphosis is what starts causing issues.
Don’t think your posture is bad just because you aren’t a straight line.

But how long I have almost fixed from being a question mark to basic bad

I always worry about a foam roller on the back. Maybe mentio that it should be placed high enough that there are ribs underneath? For those who don't have large muscle development.

Can a Kyphosis go back to it's natural form someday?

[ellad]

I have kyphosis and scoliosis I had an operation but when I get older I might have scoliosis above and below. My nickname is robot 🤖

[ellad]

I have a teddy bear that says bent not broken

[theidirianthinker]

I thought it was genetics, where all spines are arched differently.

grab the person you want to fix by the shoulders standing behind him. extend your arms and deliver a straight kick to the middle of the back. that will fix it
