The Taoist Spine Stretch –
“A Supple Spine is the Backbone of Good Health”
The Taoist spine stretch is a process unique to Taoism. Besides making the spine more limber, the Taoist spine stretch begins the process of fully activating the chi of the spine and brain. The overall goal is improved spinal function and reduced pain. The Taoist spine stretch can be done by most individuals to help with back problems and to improve health.
The stretch involves two components, bending forward and reversing the process to stand erect, thereby working both sides of the spine. The spine stretch involves learning how to release tension on the body’s muscles and within the vertebrae starting with the lower (lumbar) vertebrae, and moving progressively upward through the thoracic and cervical spine vertebrae, shoulder blades, arm joints, muscles in the face, and bones in the skull.
