Shoulder Shrug Exercise
To start, sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Shift your weight slightly forward so you don't round your back. Relax. Keep your ears, shoulders, and hips aligned:
-
Raise both of your shoulders as high as you can, as if you were trying to touch them to your ears. Keep your head and neck still and relaxed.
-
Hold for a count of 10. Release.
-
Repeat 5 times.
For your safety, check with your healthcare provider before starting an exercise program.
