Stiffness robs you of ease of movement. Sometimes, however, all you need is a big stick to set things right and regain the quality of life you want.
Many of the articles I write deal with weakness, pain, or injuries, but something else vexes tens of millions of people daily that doesn’t get as much attention: stiffness. Stiffness can limit activity, functional independence, and take the fun out of doing things. Worse, it can set us up for injuries. Many of us have persistent aches and pains in certain areas, which often correspond with related stiffness.
Thankfully, a consistent regimen of stretching exercises can help us limber up and move toward better comfort and independence.
