    I have CD and just found this video too!! These look pretty good but what I learned is that using a heating pad or doing these after a hot shower helps to get a better stretch. Much more effective with heat first.

    Hi Lanos. The key to these exercises is to listen to your body. Exercising to the point where you are in pain while performing them or will be in pain afterward because you over exerted yourself is not recommended. Start off slow doing a couple of sets of 10 with a break in between. Don't stretch to the point of experiencing pain but you want to get to the point where you can feel a slight pull of the muscles that are being stretched. Give those muscles a day to relax and recuperate and do another set of exercises that focus on other muscles. Then give them a day to relax and move on to the next until you have completed all exercises and then repeat the sets again. Remember to listen to your body and if you are feeling discomfort during or after the exercise, back off a bit on the stretch then slowly progress as you continue the rotation of sets. Baby steps is the key! :)
