I was having back pain for 1 week, and was not able to sit, walk and sleep. I did these exercises 3 times a day for 3 days and it worked magically. 😭 Thank u so much 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
It's a very helpful exercise I have tharosic (upper back ) pain and low back pain upper back pain 80 % good but back pain ke liy please give me batter suspension
I have used these wonderful exercises for my thoracic pain and I am glad to report that I am at 80% pain free. I have used another worthless RUclips videos but this is the only professional approach to tackle this awful condition. Thank you so much. Lily
I have a total of eleven bulging disc throughout my cervical (epidural) and lumbar (ablation) spine , and now I have thoracic pain. Fighting off the tears I scoured youtube for something (anything) that might help relieve it. I went straight to Amazon and ordered a roller. Until then towels will have to do, but I am so thankful to have found your video. Thank you.
Finally found a video worthy of saving, thankyou. 60 year old here suffering from degenerative upper back and incorporated these exercises into my daily routine, immediately felt better.
Hlo sir ....I am from India, I was having spine pain since 6 months. I followed your exercises and my spine pain gonna like a magic...you are superb sir...please keep providing your valuable videos...😍😍
I sit at a desk all day. I started experiencing rib, shoulder, chest and mid back pain. Along with burning and stabbing sensation. This has been going on since May. I've had X-rays and tons of imaging, just started physical therapy, but I just knew I wasn't doing the right exercises. I did these just today and feel a little relief already. So much I could cry with happiness. Thank you for this!!!!
I have scoliosis (sideways and back to front) and a wedged thoracic vertabra from an old fracture, all of which can, at times, cause agonising muscle spasms. Your exercises immediately brought me a measure of pain relief - though I have to proceed very carefully - and over the last week I have more movement in my upper body and shoulders. Thank you so much!
Ian, I posted about Dextroscoliosis of 25 degrees which curves and Twists my spine too. I have a Host of other issues in my spine and other joints too [RA has been ruled out]. I have a 1 inch shorter right leg after a right femur fracture in 1966 [age 15 at that time- I'm 71 } . Forward Head Posture is crucial and Damaging to your Health - Spinal Health. I am retired since May 2021, worked for 48 Years. Much of that was spent behind the wheel of a car commuting at least 3 hours a day and driving during the day to make property inspections as a Mortgage Loan Officer for 3 Banks. As Chiropractors have indicated to me - how that FHP destroys your Cervical and Thoracic Spines .
Very generous video and well said/thought out. I've recently injured my t-spine (cat jumped me during deadlifts)and needed this badly. My guru chiropractor as well as a really decent OMT D.O. can't get me right after a dozen visits a piece, and I've needed better homework. Been doing lumbar rotations from PT exercises i learned 5 years ago when l broke L2 (as well as C5 and C7), but they've not cut it for this injury. Very appreciative of this and have faith that I'll get improvement from it. Needless to say I'm now a subscriber. You're an excellent communicator and performer, sir, and your wife's entertaining attitude amounts to an excellent RUclips experience. Update: I have to caution that the foam roller exercise is not for everyone. The other mobility and even strength exercises were fine, in fact very beneficial ,but that one with the roller seemed to aggravate my back considerably each time I tried it. Beware
@@aakashbhati6010 I always thought yoga is BS,latelly i have been seeing more and more videos on youtube similar like this one that feature yoga poses that really help me with my back,i think i might join some yoga classes after i fix my cervicogenic headaches
You literally saved my life. For three days now i am terrified to move and even adraid to breathe with the pain. My two dogs were dejected because I could not give them attention. I came across your page and after trying the first exercise I got some relief immediately. Cannot wait to do more. Thank you from me and the dogs....❤❤❤ ireland.
Thank you so much for the video. This video helped me to relieve the pain which I had for more than a decade. I've been doing these exercises for more than 6 months now. The best pain reliever is the foam roller. The best video ever that changed my whole life. Keep up the good work....
I have a chronic thoracic spine pain at T5 and my rhomboid feels painful and tired all the time. Thanks for a series of exercises, which give me an instant relief.
Hi jeff, I am a physical therapist myself and upper back pain is one thing I sometimes feel when working with heavier clients especially shoulder and hips, during long shifts. These exercises have helped me especially the thoracic mobilization lying down rotation one ! Thank you man !
hello there, so nice to meet you, thank you, ive just done these now and already i feel tremendous relief...i am 64 and i was watching gymnastics for a week and became very inspired to do a roly poly on my mattress topper, as soon as i went into the roll i heard pop..pop...click click along my spine upper back, i wont do that again in a hurry, i hope these exersise's sort the problem, id actually got into the habit of slouching so maybe i needed this to happen to help me not be so sloth, thank you for being here, all the best toyou and your wife
Fantastic exercises. My thoracic spine has been killing me for the last week. I did all of the exercises in this video and got some immediate relief. I did them in the order shown and I think the first one had the most effect. A big THANK YOU!
I woke this morning with my upper and mid thoracic locked up! Immobilized. I was a wreck. Thanks to you Doc and this video I’m moving so much better. All your videos have changed my life. I’m eternally grateful to you🙏🙏🙏
Dude this is the best I always feel so stiff every morning I feel like I can't breath thanks for this! It's super helpful especially that stretch using the chair dang!
Thank you for this video. I had already lower back disc degeneration and resolved the pain with McKenzie exercises. I then developed thoracic disc issues and the pain was even more intense. I used your exercises and it did resolve the pain at the lower area between my shoulder blades. The pain nearer the center and upper area between my shoulder blades remained painful. I modified your exercise with the "elbows in your pockets" to just placing my fingertips along side my ears and held it for 60 seconds 3-4 times a day while laying on my stomache. It resolved the pain. Just wanted to give feedback if a client of yours has this type of pain as well. Again, thank you for posting this video.
The first stretch was life changing. I wish I would have learned this 20 yrs ago. I am learning how to drain my lymphatic system manually and came across your video and I am soo glad.. I felt relief right away in the back of my neck and shoulders which are always tight and blocked up. THANK YOU I will do this everyday for the rest of .y life. 👍
@@tickertape27 if you search lymphatic system. You will find there are a few good videos explaining . I know it worked, when I did my underarm and knee area my feet swelled up which they have never done in my life. But the swelling I could see around my neck was relieved...its an intricate network...hard to explain.
I literally just did machine shoulder presses and felt a stiffness in my upper spine, with some feedback. I cut my session short and came straight home. I couldn’t look left to right, without a lot of pain. I did the 3 stretches and a few reps of wall angels and now I can move my head to the right. The left is less stiff but still with some pain. Thanks a lot doc.🎉
I have a mid back pain that started 6 weeks ago, it gets worse in the morning when I wake up. I feel much better after doing these stretches.Thanks a lot !
Thank you SO MUCH, I started and THE NEXT DAY FELT BETTER. It’s unbelievable how these simple tricks can actually eliminate the pain. Also ordered the foam roller. THANKS AGAIN AND GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR WIFE FOR THIS VIDEO.
thank you for this. i woke up this morning and couldn’t stand OR lay down without pain, and the first stretch shown alleviated it instantly. i will be doing it throughout the day so i can get some relief
I had a really stiff and painful thoracic area yesterday, so much so that I could barely bend or twist. I tried a lot of things, but the second mobility exercise gave me audible pop and a lot of the pain is gone. Thank you for the video!
Many other channels talked about these exercises, but your instructions and reps and sets really made the difference. I knew these movements from other channels but i got the results from your video and instructions, my back and arm pain lasted more than half a year, now most of the pain is gone. Thank you so much doc.
I’m in so much pain! There’s exercises felt good but the best part of this video was when you put back the skeleton during the second exercise and dropped the F bomb
Thank you very much, I was in pain. You helped me tremendously. 🙏 it did really immediately stopped the pain. You are great. Thank you for sharing your expertises with us.
I have got pain...took medicine , hot water therapy and many things but pain was there ..doc also told me to MRI ..i thought that something very serious was there with my spine ..I was very tense and nervous...but seen this video and with 3- 4 days exercise my pain was vanished ..so magical ..very very big thank sir...wishing u good health
Thank you! These exercises are helping me a lot. Not just with my back and neck problems but even I feel my brain is working better. From day 1 I noticed improvements. Cheers!
I work as a pharmacy technician so my head and neck are bent most of the day filling prescriptions. I have been in so much pain in my neck upper back, middle back and these exercises have really helped reduce that exhaustion and relieve pain. Thank you for this amazing video!
I have been getting upper back pain for a long long time, I think it’s due to my work as a chef where most worktops and cooker tops are waist high. With that, my everyday posture are always hunched forward. At times the pain is so great it makes me feel nausea. Then I tried the first exercise/stretch of this video and hey presto!! Instant Relief!!! I am writing this 12 hours after the stretch and still feeling great. if I had discover this video sooner I would not have sold my business! Sir you are a Genius. And many many thanks. A fan and subscriber.
I am 34 and I had an Anterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion a year ago 7/12/23 that involved the L4,L5,S1 being fused. I went to PT for about 2 months after surgery, but I stopped going due to cost and time away from work and to be honest, I thought it was a waste and didnt see the importance of it. Then a few months after I stopped going, I started feeling pain and it only got worse. The pain ran directly up and down my entire thoracic spine and it felt better when it was massaged. My MRI showed that there was only a mild bulge at Tll,T12 and since my doctor said it shouldn’t be causing a lot of pain, if any, I assumed he just didn’t know what he was doing and I felt hopeless and that this may just be how my life will be forever. Today I really tried to focus on what could be causing this pain out of complete desperation and focused on when I stopped therapy, so I looked up upper back strengthening videos and came across this one. I did all the exercises and felt a lot better. It has definitely given me a glimpse of hope again and yall will never understand how much that truly means to me. I plan to return to therapy. Thank you both for the video.
I always do the first exercise when I'm in immense pain.. work from home has caused severe upper back pain. I wonder whether I'll ever get healed. However your exercises are helpful indeed. Thank you
Yes doctor I really appreciate for your comments. I have a very bad upper back pain. Scared to go to the doctors office because of Covid. I am a old person. Will try these exercises. Thank you and God bless you and your family.
i am aswell a physical therapist and those mobilisation movements, specially with the foam roll is best to cure my tired thoracic back after a long shift. 👍like your videos and content👏👏
I was suffering with chronic upper back pain (thoracic and mid back) since 2019 . Went to orthopaedic, did all the tests, medications exercises,,these videos,,,,, nothing helped. I started with brisk walking 5 kms a day.. I felt some change in the reduced pain and burn... After that I started running 4 times a week. I run just around 3 kms and walk another 5kms 4 times a week. I am living the pain-free life I wanted after 2 years. I don't know what changed but I thank God. If you are fit to walk or run just start doing it.... Increase distance and time gradually to stay regular and without injuries..... I am writing this because I always hoped someone would comment below such videos if it really worked for them...
My pain started when I increased my study time, sitting on the chair since 2019. I became totally idle after having a super active life of playing football almost every day. Then I suffered for nearly two years ... Now that I am running again.... I am grateful to God. I want to feel like this forever....
Thank you so much, sir! I've been experiencing upper back pain for the last week, and I can't believe how much better I feel after just one session of the exercises you recommended. I recently discovered your channel, and I love it. Thanks again!
Thank you so much, suffering with back pain from nursing my baby. I am in pain every morning, your exercise helps instantly, just amazing. Thanks again.
This was just what I needed right now. Found myself stretching along with the video. Already feeling much better, can only imagine what I'll feel like over time. Thank y'all!
I have to say this...YOU are the best!! Every single exercise you've shown for my problem has helped me with my pain and sciatica! Thank you so very much!! I have sent others to watch your videos.
Absolutely made my day with this comment, Lexi! I'm stoked you're getting some relief from the things that I'm sharing and that you think my advice worthy of sharing with your friends. Honestly - that means a lot to me. I wish you continued success and all the wellness in the world!
I cannot explain what I am feeling right now I am facing this pain from last one month even after medicine i didn't get any relief but today I love this thank you so much for this content it helps me a lot god bless you ❣️
Thank you so much...I was suffering from this pain on n off...but severe pain from a week now...I just did first n last stretch just laying in my bed...can't tell you how relaxed I m feeling. Thank you so much for sharing
5:05 2 days of doing this, 2nd day my back loosened up and cracked about 4 or 5 times just by rotating like that. Felt like i gained new mobility and instant pain relief.
That was absolutely life saving !!!! (i did a lot of dangerous tries to unlock my upper spine). I just returned from my streetball 'walk' thanks to this guy. Scincerely, a huge thankyou!!!
I can't wait to try these. I have had upper back pain for 5 years now. Couple of quick questions - does it matter which you do first - strength or mobilization? And afterwards should you ice your back? Thanks so much! Keeping my fingers crossed that this works. You explain better than any other PT that I have seen.
Sorry to hear about your pain, Mary! I always start with a warm up (heat works well), stretching, strength, then ice. Thanks so much for your kind comment!!
I could cry right now. I've have been suffering from pain for 4 days. Over the counter medicine is helping a little but it hurts so much. I've been to my doctor and just confirmed muscle injury but no referral to Physio, massage or anything. So frustrating. Thanks for this informative video. I was doing the exercises as you explained them. Already, I feel relief. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Jazak Allah All ex r very helpful i tried today As it was diagnosed as nerve compression and mascular spasm in thoracic spine I think these all mobality ex r going to b helpful Thanks Dr Stay blessed
This is a great video - super informative and clearly explained. It made me realise I've been using my foam roller wrong for ages! Just like you describe I've been tensing my abs and holding myself up. I just did it the right way and it feels much better!
Thank you Sir for all the videos.I felt lot of relief by doing the exercises.I have done only two or three exercises but only with those exercises I felt 80%relief.
Thanks again for the wonderful back exercises! Will try them later today. Already using the 5 posture exercises and they seem to help just from day one. Thank you for sharing your deep knowledge, for free, in a form of excellent presentations. Stay healthy and keep the good work!
Ves - you are welcome! And I am happy to hear that you are using the posture exercises as well - those are some of my favorites. I appreciate your kind words. Have a great day.
You are very welcome! I'll keep you posted, because I'm planning to perform these exercises for the next few months. I have serious thorax and hip joint/pelvis injuries.
Thank you for these! These stretches feel so great to do. My scoliosis seems to be causing kyphosis and shoulder impingement so these stretches are so much needed!
Omg! Ur exercises helped me to get relief immediately...thank you so much, I have mild annual disc bulge in my middle back, kindly suggest which exercise I should follow to get cure permanently..thanks in advance
I am doing many exercises from past few months but none of them worked...the very first exersise i did from this video and i got so much relieve...it's like why i haven't seen this video months before....thanks man for showing the right exercise...so happy to be relieved from the pain...very nice and helpful video
Can't express how much I appreciate your help.. the Wall Angels exercise is amazing I feel it touchs the weakest part of my back and I felt better after doing the first exercise!! I will keep doing it for weeks from now!.. Thank you very much
I'm so Glad just found your Page I will Start Doing these Exercises I've been having terrible Pain in My upper Back and when i get it i Cant breathe or move !! 😢😢 Feels like My Back Ribs are getting Crushed 😢
This is the best, most thorough upper back video I’ve seen! Thank you! Could weakness with this area also cause tight, overactive traps? Mine try to pop up everytime I do anything with arms overhead
He will not answer this question because it's not the same for everyone, but breathing into the upper chest causes shoulder tightness, whereas breathing lower into the belly, as we're supposed to, will loosen tight traps.
Hey there I have been doing this routine for some upper/mid back pain that I have been suffering from due to being at my desk for too long. Yesterday was my second day following your routine. I woke up this morning feeling pretty good. It has been severely impacting my sleep and I slep all through the night. I have a question though. I noticed some bruising in my mid back this morning. Is this normal? Could it be from the foam rolling? Should I continue the routine today? Thank you very much for the helpful videos.
Hi, the foam rollers vary in size, make sure you are using the appropriated one and the right posture while doing it. Putting too much pressure or over doing it can cause you bruising. If you are feeling pain when working on the foam role stop. It could be a sign that it's not being done correctly or your back is not ready for the foam roller. Be careful.
Thank you D/r Jared.I am 70 years old suffering by siatica nerve but now I am doing good following your principles and also thanks to your wife.

I have been getting upper back pain for a long long time, I think it’s due to my work as a chef where most worktops and cooker tops are waist high. With that, my everyday posture are always hunched forward. At times the pain is so great it makes me feel nausea. Then I tried the first exercise/stretch of this video and hey presto!! Instant Relief!!! I am writing this 12 hours after the stretch and still feeling great. if I had discover this video sooner I would not have sold my business!
Sir you are a Genius. And many many thanks.
A fan and subscriber.
Oh that is so good to hear, Louis Wong! You have just made my day- thank you for your support!
Really helping my spine stiffness ☺
Wonderful news, Wendy Belward! Thanks for sharing!
I am 34 and I had an Anterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion a year ago 7/12/23 that involved the L4,L5,S1 being fused. I went to PT for about 2 months after surgery, but I stopped going due to cost and time away from work and to be honest, I thought it was a waste and didnt see the importance of it. Then a few months after I stopped going, I started feeling pain and it only got worse. The pain ran directly up and down my entire thoracic spine and it felt better when it was massaged. My MRI showed that there was only a mild bulge at Tll,T12 and since my doctor said it shouldn’t be causing a lot of pain, if any, I assumed he just didn’t know what he was doing and I felt hopeless and that this may just be how my life will be forever. Today I really tried to focus on what could be causing this pain out of complete desperation and focused on when I stopped therapy, so I looked up upper back strengthening videos and came across this one. I did all the exercises and felt a lot better. It has definitely given me a glimpse of hope again and yall will never understand how much that truly means to me. I plan to return to therapy. Thank you both for the video.
How is it going for you now?
I always do the first exercise when I'm in immense pain.. work from home has caused severe upper back pain. I wonder whether I'll ever get healed. However your exercises are helpful indeed. Thank you
You are welcome, Asba Hasan! I am glad these exercises have been helping and thank you for sharing!
Thanks to u and your family doctor. I did the last one thrice. Now I feel very nice. God bless you.
Glad to hear that! Thanks for sharing!
It's a constant suffering for me that area. Thank you so much for the variety and all that advice. I'll try my best.
I hope these help you out!
@@toneandtighten They already do. Thanks.
I just did the foam roller and the pain went away. These are great. Thank you both very much!
Wonderful to hear, Traci! You are welcome s d thanks for commenting!
Omg! That first stretch! Amazing! It definitely hit that sweet spot on my shoulder blade area on my thoracic area. Thank you so much!
You're so welcome! Glad it was helpful and thank you for sharing!
same! i’ve been so anxious about the pain right in that area, felt such a difference even after a few sets of that first stretch.
Yes doctor I really appreciate for your comments. I have a very bad upper back pain. Scared to go to the doctors office because of Covid. I am a old person. Will try these exercises. Thank you and God bless you and your family.
Sorry to hear that, Chandrika! I hope these help and thanks for commenting!
i am aswell a physical therapist and those mobilisation movements, specially with the foam roll is best to cure my tired thoracic back after a long shift. 👍like your videos and content👏👏
Angela - hello to a fellow physical therapist! Isn't a foam roll just the best thing? Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Best of luck to you!
Def one of the most informational videos on back pain and solutions.
Thank you so much, Jeremy! I hope these exercises help you!
That first exercise is amazing😍.
I was having so much pain..
I just did your first exercise for 3 times..omg all my pain gone😍😍.
Thank you so much
You're so welcome! I am so glad these were effective for you!
I was suffering with chronic upper back pain (thoracic and mid back) since 2019 .
Went to orthopaedic, did all the tests, medications exercises,,these videos,,,,, nothing helped.
I started with brisk walking 5 kms a day.. I felt some change in the reduced pain and burn...
After that I started running 4 times a week. I run just around 3 kms and walk another 5kms 4 times a week.
I am living the pain-free life I wanted after 2 years.
I don't know what changed but I thank God.
If you are fit to walk or run just start doing it.... Increase distance and time gradually to stay regular and without injuries.....
I am writing this because I always hoped someone would comment below such videos if it really worked for them...
Try everything with proper technique. I am not saying the exercises in these videos won't work but we don't know what might actually work..
My pain started when I increased my study time, sitting on the chair since 2019. I became totally idle after having a super active life of playing football almost every day. Then I suffered for nearly two years ... Now that I am running again.... I am grateful to God. I want to feel like this forever....
That is great to hear! Thanks for sharing.

You are very welcome! I am glad these exercises were effective and thanks for commenting!
5:05 2 days of doing this, 2nd day my back loosened up and cracked about 4 or 5 times just by rotating like that. Felt like i gained new mobility and instant pain relief.
Great news!
That was absolutely life saving !!!! (i did a lot of dangerous tries to unlock my upper spine). I just returned from my streetball 'walk' thanks to this guy. Scincerely, a huge thankyou!!!
You are welcome! I am so glad you found these exercises helpful and thanks for commenting!
I can't wait to try these. I have had upper back pain for 5 years now. Couple of quick questions - does it matter which you do first - strength or mobilization? And afterwards should you ice your back?
Thanks so much! Keeping my fingers crossed that this works. You explain better than any other PT that I have seen.
Sorry to hear about your pain, Mary! I always start with a warm up (heat works well), stretching, strength, then ice. Thanks so much for your kind comment!!
How is it now
@@naimsharifakash9989 hi stewie
Yes how is it now
I could cry right now. I've have been suffering from pain for 4 days. Over the counter medicine is helping a little but it hurts so much. I've been to my doctor and just confirmed muscle injury but no referral to Physio, massage or anything. So frustrating. Thanks for this informative video. I was doing the exercises as you explained them. Already, I feel relief. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Oh, you are so welcome! I love to hear you are feeling so much better! Thanks for sharing!

Mate, i was suffering for a week with a nasty upper back pain, you have done a magic, bless u !
Great news, Ahmed Saif! I am happy to help!
Been to a chiropractor 4-5 times and the adjustment doesn’t hold long. It feels like a pulling in the middle of my back, any suggestions? Thanks!
I'm so Glad just found your Page I will Start Doing these Exercises I've been having terrible Pain in My upper Back and when i get it i Cant breathe or move !! 😢😢 Feels like My Back Ribs are getting Crushed 😢
This is the best, most thorough upper back video I’ve seen! Thank you! Could weakness with this area also cause tight, overactive traps? Mine try to pop up everytime I do anything with arms overhead
NC me too! I’d love to hear the answer.
He will not answer this question because it's not the same for everyone, but breathing into the upper chest causes shoulder tightness, whereas breathing lower into the belly, as we're supposed to, will loosen tight traps.
I did them the moment I watched the video. They feel great. Hopefully, they'll relieve my upper back pain.
Glad they are helping!
Hey there I have been doing this routine for some upper/mid back pain that I have been suffering from due to being at my desk for too long. Yesterday was my second day following your routine. I woke up this morning feeling pretty good. It has been severely impacting my sleep and I slep all through the night. I have a question though. I noticed some bruising in my mid back this morning. Is this normal? Could it be from the foam rolling? Should I continue the routine today? Thank you very much for the helpful videos.
Wow nobody ever responded :(
Hi, the foam rollers vary in size, make sure you are using the appropriated one and the right posture while doing it. Putting too much pressure or over doing it can cause you bruising. If you are feeling pain when working on the foam role stop. It could be a sign that it's not being done correctly or your back is not ready for the foam roller. Be careful.
