A seated neck-and-shoulder stretch pairing head turns with external rotation – perfect for anyone who feels locked up from hours at a keyboard.

Head turns work your neck's rotational range, then seated external rotation opens the front of your shoulder and stretches your chest. Both moves are slow and controlled – the kind of thing you can do without leaving your chair.

External shoulder rotation helps reverse the internal rotation pattern that typing and mouse use create, and studies suggest it can reduce shoulder impingement risk over time.
