Every little bit helps but I would say the word enough is relative. Enough to what? Enough to feel less achy? Eh, probably not. Enough to counterbalance the bad posture and lack of mobility? Definitely not. But it might be enough for you to feel less tense.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Heaven W.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I learned every stretch should be at least 15 min. Before I leave bed I start my stretching every morning. I have a bad back and it helps to relive the pressure and relax the muscles so when i do get up I feel good enough to workout and start my day<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Isabella G.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I recommend at least 30 minutes of stretching a day. Don\u2019t forget to stretch your lower body that is extremely important! You don\u2019t have to do all 30 minutes at once you can spread it through out the day. I don\u2019t think 1-2 minutes is enough.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Subhashini C.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Yes it is enough. The aim of stretching is increasing flexibility and relief from pain . It also helps in maintaining correct posture so 1 or 2 min of stretching even 2 times a day is enough. It&#39;s different from exercising where u need to give at least 7 min even for light exercises.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mel Q.
