3. Then i put pressure on the first rib with my thumb and turn my head away so it streches.

I can easily feel the first rib and when i push down on it hard it can feel it lower very slighty. I dont do it to often though cause it hurts a bit and can cause inflamation if i do it to often.

Im going to a chiro this week so ill check and see if there is anything wrong with what im doing.
@hellothere, how did the above stretch work out for you in the long run?
