Passive Minor Pectoral Stretching

Description

Lie on your back, with your arms along your body. Your physical therapist will place their hands on either side of your chest at the insertions of the minor pectoral (from the ribs to the coracoid process). They will spread the insertions to stretch the muscle, holding the position for about 30 seconds before releasing. The same maneuver can be performed on the other side.
