How do you know the stretch you’re doing is good for your joints?

My osteo helped me with stretching after I suffered from torticollis. Also since I work out regularly, I take note of which muscles were used and would need to be stretched out a bit more than usual.

It makes my day – I feel more flexible, my body is feeling better at work (I am only sitting or standing, nothing more) and it makes me feel happy that I am doing something for myself, so I feel proud of myself, when I stretch. It is better to do something than nothing, even if you have almost no time to excercise..

I used to wake up and hardly be able to get out of bed as everything was stiff and sore. After a 5 minute period of doing some gentle stretches, I can start my day feeling so much better. I do my stretches as soon as I wake up before I get out of bed

Well obviously while u stretch u will feel this feeling
Where until a certain amount of stretching 🙆‍♀️ out can make our body hurt that’s how u know
Thx for asking 👋🏼👍✌️🤞🤟🎉🙆‍♀️😊😊😎👌❤️☺️😉

Well, honestly, the stretching movement feels better over time. At the beginning, stretching felt tight and a bit painful (a little). But as I stretch now I feel tightness, but the pain is gone and I can see the increase in movement.

Combine these things with the fact that I know the benefits of stretching are awesome (friends, books and videos), I get even more excited to stretch. So each day, seeing the increase in flexibility and the disappearance of the intial pain tells me I am making great progress.

It should feel good to stretch the muscles. Do it slowly and don’t force it. It will loosen you up. It will release toxins. It will provide a good energy flow. If it hurts your joints, stop. Consult a professional
