What Exercises Fix Rounded Shoulders At Home?

Rounded shoulders, increasingly common due to prolonged use of digital devices and desk jobs, can lead to pain and mobility issues if unaddressed. However, postural correction can be achieved through home-based exercises and lifestyle changes. It's crucial to stretch the chest and anterior shoulder muscles while strengthening the back muscles. Additional strategies include daily posture assessment, targeted stretching, strength training focussing on upper back muscles, optimising sleep positioning and ergonomic workspace setup. These efforts should ideally be combined with professional guidance.

By incorporating specific corrective exercises and stretches into daily routines, and maintaining proper shoulder alignment, posture can be improved and long-term health impacts can be avoided. Strategies include: assessment of posture, muscle imbalances and shoulder mobility; targeting key muscles with chest opening stretches and upper back strengthening moves; ensuring proper neck alignment; and adopting healthy movement habits.
