Educational stretches & mobility

A patient-friendly library of free, evidence-aligned stretches drawn from MedlinePlus, the NIH National Institute on Aging, and the NIH MedlinePlus Magazine. Always confirm with your provider before starting — these are educational only, not a substitute for individualized care.

Safety first. Stop any stretch that produces sharp pain, numbness, tingling, or dizziness. Move slowly, breathe evenly, and never bounce.
