Back Pain Just From Picking Up a Pen?
The Problem May Not Be the Weight
Your Spine Isn’t Moving One Segment at a Time!

撿一隻筆也會腰痛？
問題可能不在重量
是你的脊椎沒有一節一節地動！

Jefferson Curl (Light Version)｜脊椎捲曲訓練（輕量版）

https://youtube.com/shorts/qS9z07tle9Y?si=yp3cmOgs8eCLkkvc

Why It Works?

Many people think bending-related back pain is simply caused by lifting something too heavy.

But sometimes, even picking up something light can feel uncomfortable when your spine and hips don’t move smoothly through the bending motion.

Instead of sharing the movement across multiple spinal segments and the hips, the body may become stiff or rely too heavily on certain areas.

Light Jefferson Curl uses a slow, controlled bending motion to practise segmental spinal movement and improve body awareness. The goal isn’t heavy loading—it’s learning to move through the spine gradually and with control.

為什麼有效？

很多人以為彎腰時腰痛，一定是因為拿的東西太重。

但有些人即使只是彎腰撿一隻筆，也可能感到腰部不舒服。問題不一定是重量，而可能是彎腰時脊椎與髖部沒有順暢地分配動作。

當身體太僵硬，或動作過度集中在某一個區域時，彎腰就可能變得不自然，也容易增加局部負擔。

Jefferson Curl 輕量版（脊椎捲曲訓練）透過緩慢、有控制的方式練習脊椎逐節屈曲，提升脊椎活動控制與身體感知。

這個訓練的重點不是重量，而是控制——學會讓脊椎在可控制的範圍內，一節一節地完成動作。

Can’t Lift Your Arms Straight Overhead?
The Problem May Not Be Your Shoulders
Your Mid-Back Can’t Extend!

雙手舉不直？
問題可能不在肩膀
是你的中背伸不起來！

Thoracic Extension｜胸椎伸展

https://youtube.com/shorts/d5jUEt_uQh0?si=7nLgjKbvmDWcrsOR

Why It Works?

Many people assume that difficulty reaching both arms overhead means their shoulders are tight.

But sometimes, the real limitation comes from poor thoracic extension.

Your upper and mid-back need to extend properly to allow the shoulders to move freely overhead. If the thoracic spine stays too rounded or stiff, the shoulders may compensate, making overhead movement feel restricted or uncomfortable.

Thoracic Extension helps improve movement through the mid-back, giving the shoulders a better foundation to move overhead with less compensation.

為什麼有效？

很多人雙手舉不直時，第一個想到的是肩膀太緊。

但有時候，真正限制動作的其實是胸椎伸展不足。

當雙手往頭頂上方舉時，中背需要有足夠的伸展能力。如果胸椎長期僵硬、維持圓背姿勢，肩膀就容易被迫代償，讓手臂舉高時感覺卡住、受限。

Thoracic Extension（胸椎伸展）能幫助改善中背伸展活動度，讓肩膀有更好的活動基礎，減少手臂上舉時不必要的代償。

Best For｜適合族群

✓ People who struggle to lift their arms overhead

✓ People with a stiff or rounded upper back

✓ People who sit for long hours

✓ People with limited thoracic extension

✓ 雙手往上舉時受限的人

✓ 中背僵硬或圓背的人

Body Locks Up When You Turn?
The Problem May Not Be Your Back
You’ve Lost Your Rotation!

一轉身身體就卡住？
問題可能不在背
是你失去了旋轉能力！

Seated Twist｜坐姿旋轉

https://youtube.com/shorts/-FgLHc6Mek0?si=ssl3komGmEIQ1Ik6

Why It Works?

Many people feel stiff or restricted when turning and assume the problem is simply tight back muscles.

But sometimes, the real issue is limited spinal rotation.

Your spine needs rotation for everyday movements such as turning, reaching, walking, and looking behind you. When this movement becomes limited, other areas may compensate, making your body feel stiff or “locked up.”

Seated Twist gently trains spinal rotation, helping improve mobility and restore smoother, more comfortable movement through your trunk.

⸻

為什麼有效？

很多人一轉身就覺得背部很緊、身體卡住，直覺會認為只是背部肌肉太緊。

但有時候，真正缺少的是脊椎的旋轉能力。

轉身、伸手拿東西、走路，甚至回頭看後方，都需要軀幹具有良好的旋轉活動度。當旋轉能力下降時，其他部位就容易產生代償，讓身體越來越僵硬、不順。

Seated Twist（坐姿旋轉）透過溫和的軀幹旋轉，幫助恢復脊椎旋轉活動度，改善身體僵硬感，讓日常轉身動作更順暢。

⸻

Best For｜適合族群

✓ People who feel stiff when turning

✓ People with limited spinal rotation

✓ People who sit for long hours

✓ People wanting better trunk mobility

✓ 轉身時容易感覺卡住的人

✓ 脊椎旋轉活動度不足的人

Lower Back Tight After a Long Day?
The Problem May Not Be Your Muscles
Your Spine Needs to Decompress!
忙了一整天下背很緊？
問題可能不在肌肉
你的脊椎需要減壓！

Child’s Pose｜嬰兒式

https://youtube.com/shorts/EmiORVx_SGI?si=zKj5vThoPl31mvTI

Why It Works?

Many people try to massage or stretch the lower back when it feels tight after a long day.

But sometimes, your back simply needs a break from prolonged sitting, standing, and loading.

Child’s Pose gently flexes the spine while allowing the hips to move back and the muscles around the lower back to relax. This position can provide a comfortable sense of unloading and help reduce stiffness after a long day.

It also encourages gentle movement through the lower back, hips, and shoulders, making it a simple recovery exercise when your body feels compressed and tight.

為什麼有效？

很多人忙了一整天後覺得下背很緊，第一個反應就是按摩或一直拉腰。

但有時候，身體真正需要的是暫時離開長時間坐、站與承重的姿勢，讓脊椎和周圍組織得到放鬆。

Child’s Pose（嬰兒式）讓脊椎溫和屈曲，同時將臀部向後移，使下背周圍的肌肉比較容易放鬆，帶來舒適的減壓感。

同時也能溫和活動下背、髖部與肩膀，很適合在忙碌一天後，用來舒緩身體的僵硬與緊繃。

Best For｜適合族群

✓ People with lower back tightness after a long day

✓ People who sit or stand for long hours

✓ People who feel stiff after work

Back Stiffness Won’t Go Away?
The Problem May Not Be Your Muscles
Your Spine Isn’t Moving!

背部僵硬一直好不了？
問題可能不在肌肉
是你的脊椎沒在好好動！

Cat-Cow｜貓牛式

https://youtube.com/shorts/yESpxC2z1bw?si=kPaspATNxczacJKG

Why It Works?

Many people think a stiff back means the muscles are simply too tight, so they keep stretching or massaging the same areas.

But sometimes, the missing piece is spinal mobility.

When your spine doesn’t move well through flexion and extension, certain areas may become stiff while other areas compensate by moving more.

Cat-Cow gently moves the spine between flexion and extension, helping improve spinal mobility, body awareness, and movement control.

為什麼有效？

很多人覺得背部僵硬，就是肌肉太緊，所以一直拉筋、按摩或放鬆。

但有時候，真正缺少的是脊椎活動度。

當脊椎無法順暢地完成屈曲與伸展時，某些部位容易變得僵硬，而其他部位則可能需要增加活動來代償。

Cat-Cow（貓牛式）透過反覆拱背與伸展，讓脊椎在屈曲與伸展之間溫和活動，有助於改善脊椎活動度、身體感知與動作控制。

Best For｜適合族群

✓ People with back stiffness

✓ People who sit for long hours

✓ People with limited spinal mobility

✓ People who want to improve spinal movement and control

✓ 背部經常僵硬的人

Neck And Low Back Pain?
The Problem May Not Be Your Neck Or Low Back
It’s Your Thoracic Spine!

頸部和腰部常痠緊？
問題可能不在頸部或腰部
在胸椎！

Open Book｜開書式

https://youtube.com/shorts/dff4HGZgSbY?si=HhmkJC384fVRHVrv

Why It Works?

Many people focus on stretching or massaging the neck and lower back when they feel tight or uncomfortable.

But sometimes, the missing link is thoracic spine mobility.

When your mid-back doesn’t rotate or move well, your neck and lower back may compensate by moving more than they should. Over time, this can create unnecessary tension and stress in both areas.

Open Book improves thoracic rotation and upper-back mobility, helping distribute movement more evenly through the spine and reducing unnecessary compensation from the neck and lower back.

為什麼有效？

很多人頸部或腰部痠緊時，第一個反應就是拉筋、按摩頸部或下背。

但有時候，真正缺少的其實是胸椎活動度。

當胸椎旋轉與活動不足時，身體仍然需要完成轉身、伸展等動作，頸椎和腰椎就可能被迫增加活動來代償。

久而久之，頸部與下背便容易承受不必要的壓力與緊繃。

**Open Book（開書式）**主要訓練胸椎旋轉與上背活動度，讓脊椎各部位更合理地分擔動作，有助於減少頸椎與腰椎的代償。

Best For｜適合族群

✓ People with neck and lower back tightness

✓ People with limited thoracic rotation

✓ People who sit for long hours

✓ People who feel stiff when twisting their upper body

✓ 頸部與腰部經常痠緊的人

✓ 胸椎旋轉活動度不足的人

That Tight Spot Under Your Shoulder Blade You Just Can’t Reach?
The Problem May Not Be Your Muscles
Your Shoulder Blade Isn’t Moving Well!

肩胛骨內側那個怎麼按都按不到的痠點？
問題可能不在肌肉
是你的肩胛骨沒在好好動！

Thread the Needle｜穿針式

https://youtube.com/shorts/mZad1oEe13w?si=tOxFzRYgiD25VQh4

Why It Works?

Many people try to massage or stretch the tight spot between the shoulder blade and spine.

But sometimes, the problem isn’t just tight muscles—it may also involve limited movement through the upper back and shoulder blade.

When your thoracic spine and shoulder blade don’t move well together, the muscles around the shoulder blade may have to work harder, creating that familiar feeling of tightness and stiffness.

Thread the Needle combines upper-back rotation with shoulder blade movement, helping improve thoracic mobility, restore smoother shoulder blade motion, and reduce unnecessary tension around the upper back.

為什麼有效？

很多人肩胛骨內側有一個痠點，總覺得怎麼按、怎麼按摩都按不到。

但有時候，問題不只是肌肉太緊，而是胸椎與肩胛骨的活動度不足。

當胸椎旋轉不夠、肩胛骨無法順暢地跟著身體活動時，肩胛骨周圍的肌肉就容易代償出力，久而久之產生反覆的緊繃與痠痛感。

Thread the Needle（穿針式）結合胸椎旋轉與肩胛骨活動，能幫助改善上背活動度，讓肩胛骨動得更順暢，減少肩胛骨周圍不必要的緊繃與負擔。

Best For｜適合族群

✓ People with tightness around the shoulder blades

✓ People with limited upper-back rotation

✓ People who sit at a desk for long hours

Rounded Shoulders?
The Problem May Not Be Your Shoulders
It’s Your Shoulder Blades!

圓肩駝背？
問題可能不在肩膀
在肩胛骨！

Wall Angel｜靠牆天使

https://youtube.com/shorts/jUthLvtbTHQ?si=FoxMj-_C9IC_LAO-

Why It Works?

Many people think rounded shoulders are caused by tight shoulders.

In reality, the problem often comes from poor shoulder blade control.

Your shoulder blades provide the foundation for healthy shoulder movement and good posture. When they don’t move or stabilize properly, your shoulders tend to roll forward, leading to poor posture and unnecessary muscle tension.

Wall Angel helps improve shoulder blade mobility and control, encourages better posture, and reduces strain on the neck and shoulders.

為什麼有效？

很多人以為圓肩駝背，是因為肩膀太緊。

但其實，真正的問題很多時候是肩胛骨控制不足。

肩胛骨是肩膀活動的重要基礎。當肩胛骨無法正常活動或穩定時，肩膀就容易向前跑，形成圓肩姿勢，也容易造成頸部與肩膀肌肉長期緊繃。

Wall Angel（靠牆天使）能改善肩胛骨的活動度與控制能力，幫助恢復良好的肩膀排列，改善姿勢，並減少頸肩部不必要的負擔。

Best For｜適合族群

✓ People with rounded shoulders

✓ People with poor shoulder blade control

✓ Office workers and desk workers

✓ People with neck and shoulder tightness

✓ 圓肩駝背的人

✓ 肩胛骨控制不足的人

✓ 久坐上班族

Neck Pain, Headaches And Tired Eyes?
The Problem Isn’t Your Phone—
Your Head Is Too Far Forward!

脖子痠、頭痛、眼睛疲勞？
問題可能不在手機
是你的頭跑太前面了！

Chin Tuck｜下巴內收

https://youtube.com/shorts/oYR8jkazC2U?si=fH39SGWKkoP-ecmb

Why It Works?

Many people blame their phone for neck pain, headaches, and tired eyes.

But often, the real problem is forward head posture.

When your head sits too far in front of your shoulders, the muscles in your neck have to work much harder to support its weight. Over time, this can contribute to neck stiffness, tension headaches, and muscle fatigue.

Chin Tuck helps retrain the deep neck flexor muscles, improves head and neck alignment, and reduces unnecessary strain on the cervical spine.

為什麼有效？

很多人以為脖子痠、頭痛、眼睛疲勞，都是因為滑手機造成的。

但真正的問題，很多時候其實是頭部前傾（Forward Head Posture）。

當頭部長時間跑到肩膀前方時，頸部肌肉必須持續用力支撐頭部重量，久而久之容易造成頸部緊繃、張力性頭痛，以及眼睛周圍肌肉疲勞。

Chin Tuck（下巴內收）能訓練深層頸屈肌，幫助頭部回到較佳的位置，改善頸椎排列，減少頸部不必要的負擔。

Best For｜適合族群

✓ People with neck pain

✓ People with tension headaches

✓ People with forward head posture

✓ People who use computers or phones for long hours

✓ 容易脖子痠痛的人

✓ 張力性頭痛的人

✓ 頭部前傾姿勢的人
