How to do it

  1. Bring one arm across your chest and hug it gently in with the other hand.
  2. Arm across the chest, shoulder down.
  3. Hold just above the elbow, not on the joint. Keep the shoulder you are stretching low.
  4. Switch sides and repeat. The app tells you when.

Move within a range that feels comfortable and stop if something feels wrong. Movemint plays this with a 3D guide, a spoken countdown and a rest timer, free and offline.
