Tune into part 3 of our back pain series where DocJen and Dr. Dom dive into the neck! DocJen and Dr. Dom dive into the anatomy of the upper back and what may be contributing to upper back pain. They explain the mobility-stability continuum and what it means to develop control over the body. By providing your solution with exercises, they discuss the relevance of mobility above and below the upper back, as well as, using external load and building resilience.
