Levator Scapulae Frame Anchor
Starting position

Stand facing the doorway. Lift one elbow high and rest that forearm flat against the frame.

Hold 30–45 sec each side

Breath — Slow, relaxed breathing

How to do it

Turn your face about 45 degrees away from the raised arm and look down toward the opposite hip, using your free hand to guide your head a little lower. Hold, then switch sides.

Keep in mind

Drop the raised-arm shoulder blade down away from your ear as you look toward your hip.

Every move: lightly lift your pelvic floor — a gentle lift, never a clench — and breathe slow and full (hold the stretches for about 5 easy breaths, at least 30 seconds). New to the lift? →
