Associate Professor of Physical Therapy Mark Gugliotti, D.P.T., is quoted in an 聽article that offers simple stretches to combat the consequences of sitting for long periods of time. The neck, back, hips, shoulders, and legs often become tight, stiff, and painful when left immobile for too long. For those who are seated for most of the day, incorporating a minute or two of stretching throughout the day can work to restore mobility, improve posture, and ease discomfort in those areas.

鈥淸Stretching] restores flexibility to areas of the body that are subject to stiffness and to muscles that become shortened,鈥� Gugliotti says. He reminds readers that they should never strain or stretch to the point of pain鈥攕tretches should be a comfortable, gentle pull.
