The benefits of starting a stretching routine
- Stress relief. Our muscles can tighten up in response to physical and emotional stress. Stretching can help relax tight muscles so we feel more relaxed ourselves.
- Increased flexibility. Most researchers agree that 10 to 20 seconds of stretching is enough to increase flexibility.
- Better posture. Stretching can help encourage proper spinal alignment and reduce musculoskeletal pain, which will improve your posture.
