Rounded Shoulders
I have rounded shoulders and a bad posture since childhood. i am now 28 years old. so is it possible to correct the same with physiotherapy and exercising?
Rounded shoulders are typically caused by poor posture habits, muscle imbalances and focusing too much on certain exercises, such as too much focus on chest strength while neglecting the upper back. Exercises to strengthen your core, upper back and chest muscles will help correct rounded shoulders: Plank.
Next Steps
Stand with your back to a wall, trying to keep your upper back and butt in contact with the wall. Walk your feet about 12-18 inches away from the wall. Lift your hands over your head and try to press your forearms into the wall. Slide your arms up and down the wall, by squeezing your shoulderblades.
