This time's theme is ``The Best Exercises to Relieve Stiff Shoulders'': Easy ways to do them at home.



Introduction



Have you ever noticed that your shoulders are stiff from working at a desk or sitting in the same position for long periods of time?

In particular, women in their 30s and around 40 generations have heavy responsibilities at work and are also responsible for supporting the family, so daily stress and fatigue tend to manifest as stiff shoulders.

But don't worry. Here are some of the best exercises to relieve stiff shoulders.

So, relieve your tired shoulders now with some easy methods you can do at home!



[Exercise to relieve stiff shoulders that you can definitely continue]



1. Shoulder rotation:

Slowly rotate your shoulders back and forth while sitting.

Inhale as you go up and exhale as you lower.

This simple movement will loosen the muscles around your shoulders and increase blood circulation.



2. Neck stretch:

Slowly tilt your head from side to side, bringing your ears closer to your shoulders.

You can also ease tension in your neck and shoulders by bringing your chin closer to your chest, leaning forward and slowly arching back.



3. Wall push stretch:

Stand facing a wall, place your palms on the wall, and use that as a fulcrum to pivot your body.

This stretches the area around your shoulder blades and is effective for relieving stiff shoulders.



4. Arm lift:

Stretch your arms toward the ceiling and make small rotations with your hands.

This will relieve tension in your shoulders and increase your shoulder range of motion.



The key to these four exercises is that they are easy to follow every day.

The important thing is to continue at your own pace and not push yourself too hard. The problem of stiff shoulders won't go away overnight.

However, the most effective method is actually to accumulate things steadily.



[Daily tips that are effective for stiff shoulders]



①Improvement of posture:

Staying in the same position for long periods of time is a major cause of shoulder stiffness.

Open your chest, lower your shoulders, and keep your back straight.

By being conscious of this posture, whether you are standing or sitting, you can reduce the strain on your shoulders.



② Stress management:

Stress is one of the factors that stiffens shoulder muscles.

Reduce your mental burden by setting aside daily relaxation time, immersing yourself in a hobby, or even getting a professional massage from time to time.



③ Appropriate rest:

Good quality sleep is essential for recovering from fatigue.

Getting enough rest will help your muscles relax and reduce shoulder stiffness.



④Intake of water and nutrients:

Dehydration worsens blood flow and causes stiff shoulders.

Also, eating a diet rich in vitamins and minerals will help your body recover from fatigue.



By keeping these points in mind and continuing with the exercises mentioned above, women in their 30s and people around 40 can naturally relieve stiff shoulders and feel truly refreshed in their daily lives.



[Exercise tips recommended by experts]



Here are some expert tips to help you make the most of your exercise routine.



- Stretch as hard as you feel comfortable.

Excessive stretching that causes pain can actually cause muscle damage.


- You can exercise at any time, but it's especially helpful to exercise before going to bed at night or when you wake up in the morning to maintain the relaxing effect throughout the day.


- Stretching while incorporating deep breathing will increase your relaxation effect.


- It is best to start with short stretches and gradually increase the length of time you stretch.

The important thing here is not to force yourself to do it, but to do it in consultation with your body.
