If you have rounded shoulders and tense upper traps, here's why and how to fix it... When your scapula is elevated, that's you shrugging and the upper traps are part of that muscle group that helps you with that shrug. But when you're stuck in a particular posture pattern, not only do these scapulas elevate up, but they sometimes also anteriorly tilt. So because you're sitting at a desk all day in this position, typing away, your upper traps are staying tense because they're holding those scapulas in that same position all day. That's why when you try stretching or getting massaging, the tension and pain always comes back because the issue is not the upper traps. The issue is the position of your shoulder blades. So to fix the symptom, attack the root of the issue. ⚠️Comment ROUTINE if you'd like see a few moves to get you started. . . . #posturecorrection #roundeds...
