    I cannot thank you enough for your thoughtful and careful video instructions. I’m one of the unfortunate ones with hypermobility (Ehlers-Danlos spectrum). This makes it extremely difficult for me to stretch my muscles because my ligaments just stretch , leaving my muscles tight. I also have moderate-severe scoliosis (no surprise, I’m sure.) Any help you can provide for tight pectorals and neck/upper back would be most helpful. I swim and play Pickleball, as well as walk and do yoga (very carefully). I wish you were in Albuquerque, so I could see you in person. I haven’t found anyone as helpful as you locally. With gratitude.
