Chiropractic Mobilization will help.
Do the cat/cow stretch. Get on all fours, with your arms straight and your hands directly under your shoulders; your knees hip-width apart.

Not really, it doesn't work out that ways.
You have to actively correct your posture.
Consult with a physiotherapist who have orthopaedic experience.
