Given what I’ve read about swayback and flat back postures it’s possible that I have some issues with these too. I’ve read that these are commonly associated with _anterior_ pelvic tilt but in my case I clearly have been engaging in _posterior_ pelvic tilt for most of my life (it’s really evident in most candid photos of me for instance). I definitely have ribcage flare AND winged scapulae. Thanks for providing such clear info! Without being officially diagnosed, I think that I have a number of postural issues and I’m curious about the connections between them (if any). I’ve spent a lot of time on your website and it’s been really eye-opening for me. Thanks alot for reading my problem, it has been a struggle for the past couple of years trying to find out what is going on with many medical professsionals. That left shoulder seems to cause my whole body to rotate, and I am having problems all the way down to my ankles. I have thoraic outlet syndrome type pain on the left shoulder and arm, and no matter what I do, I cannot let that left side to loosen up and hit the back muscles. I know there is a lot going on, but was wondering if you had any ideal how I would go about releasing that tight left shoulder. My physio has stated that I am unable to effectively breathe with my diaphragm and using my chest muscles to breathe (expansion of the rib is much greater than the stomach when breathing). X-ray shows that the rotation of my body indicates that the right side of the rib is much more flared than the left, but my tight left shoulder is providing another layer of rotation up top (my head is also rotated due to this) From that point, it seems like my left side scapula (my levitator scapulae) muscle has tightened and my left side of upper body is much higher than my right. I have super tight rounded shoulders from childhood, which has compensated into a ribflare where I am pretty much pulling my whole upper body forward and hyperextending/locking my knees. Thank you so much for this information, you are for sure changing people’s lives with this information! (If you tend to slouch on a regular basis, you probably have this problem!) This is where the upper back is LOCKED in a rounded position. If your posture appears to get worse after placing your ribs in a more neutral position, you will need to check to see if your have Thoracic Kyphosis. Throughout the day, perform a prolonged exhalation through your mouth with pursed lips as you Activate your Core. The muscles which are responsible for exhaling the air out of your lungs will also help with reclaiming the normal position of the ribs. ( Note: As you get better with the suggested exercises, the aim is to get your ribs to NATURALLY adopt this position.)Ī helpful cue to remember is – “Ribs down, Chest up, Shoulders back.” Throughout the day, make sure that you are consciously maintaining your ribs in a neutral position. Breathe IN as you return to starting position.Proceed apply your body weight onto the ball as you roll it as far forward as you can.Activate your Core to keep your rib cage lowered.Whilst kneeling, place your forearms onto the ball.Try them all but choose 1-3 exercises that feel the most effective for you and progress as appropriate.) ( Note: You do not need to do all of them. I have arranged these strengthening exercises in order of increasing level of difficulty. You should feel a gentle contraction in the abdominal muscles.Whilst keeping your chest up high, tilt your lower ribs downwards.

You will need to learn how to tilt your rib cage into a more neutral position to perform the strengthening exercises in the next section effectively. This exercise help position your rib cage properly so that your Diaphragm works more efficiently. ** Note: This specific contraction MUST be performed throughout all of the following exercises in the next section.
