📋 Remedial Instructions

  1. 1Stretch of the bilateral erector spinae groups.
  2. 2The client sits in a chair and slowly lowers themselves into flexion.
  3. 3The stretch for one side can be enhanced by adding some lateral flexion to the opposite side.
  4. 4When returning to the seated position, the best method is for the client to place their forearms on the thighs, using them to push back up.
