Upper crossed syndrome is a common problem. This postural pattern is characterized by increased curvature at the level of the upper back. As a result, the neck will also develop a stronger curvature, as well as the shoulder blades will rotate anteriorly. Consequences of this can include rotator cuff problems, neck pain, headaches, TOS, …
Through specific exercises, physiotherapists try to address this problem. The exercises involved focus on stretching of the shortened structures, strength training of the weakened muscles, mobilization of the joints and posture education. These exercises are aimed at improving the upper crossed syndrome and its related symptoms. Please note that if you have been in that posture for a long time, it is often impossible to develop back the “normal” physiological curves. However, there is a good chance that by regaining mobility, the complaints will effectively decrease.
As of now, get started yourself with these home exercises. You can possibly combine them with an osteopathic, chiropractic or manual therapy approach. This course is build-up in a progressive way so that you have a good protocol to solve your upper crossed syndrome complaints.
