Among the many benefits of doing the stretches and exercises with Pilates is the relief you will find when you have properly aligned your spine. There is a very simple stretch that you can do almost anywhere and feel the benefits almost immediately.

Getting Started

All you need to do is stand with your feet slightly separated and flat on the floor. Your toes should be facing forward and pointing straight out from your body. After your feet and legs are placed in the proper position it will be time to begin the stretching.

When you are ready to begin the exercise and you have your feet set to begin, the next step is to raise your hands up and above your head. Be sure to stretch and reach very far. After your hands are up and your back is stretched out you should grasp your hands together above your head.

With your hands clasped together, begin turning your arms and upper half of your body in a circular motion. You should keep your arms stretched as far as you can and as you turn in small circles you will feel your spine stretching out and it should feel wonderful!
