Hump can be due to poor posture & due to forwarded neck posture also it develops. With image I can make it clear whether rounded shoulders I mean whether scapulae are protracted or not.
Next Steps
Anyway in this case pectoralis major, upper chest muscle stretching, upper back extension & can add dynamic cupping with medium suction.
