Pectoralis Minor/Scalene Corner Stretch
By Dr. Christopher Notley

Start position

• Standing facing the corner.
• Place forearms on wall.
• Your elbows are bent and above your shoulders.
• Place one foot into the corner. This is important. If you do not do this you will be contracting the pectoralis muscles at the same time as you are stretching them. This is counterproductive.

Finish position

• Move your shoulders and your hips at the same time towards the corner until you feel a broad, moderate stretch across the front of the chest.
• Rotate your head to the left and side bend to the left. You will feel a stretch on the right side of the neck. Repeat in the other direct on the next attempt of the stretch.
• Now, exhale completely. The broad stretch in the chest should change to a smaller and deeper stretch.
• Inhale and the stretch with become broader again.
• Repeat this, inhaling and exhaling, for one minute.
