complimentary injury consultation. We will guide you so you can get back to the activities you love.

Single-Leg Stance (Forward) Sit on a sturdy chair and scoot your hips forward. Place your feet flat on the floor. Tip your pelvis slightly forward. Straighten your spine until your ears are directly over your shoulders and your shoulders are over your hips. Draw your shoulder blades gently back and together. Tuck your chin. Stretch up tall; imagine a string attached to the top of your head, pulling you up to your full height. EXERC I SE ESSENT I AL S US E T H I S E X E RC I S E TO H E L P YOUR S I T T I NG POS T UR E
