5 Nerve Gliding Stretches To Calm Your Nervous System

HI all! do this gentle 12-minute nerve gliding routine with me if you're feeling stiff, tense, or stressed! These exercises are designed to help your body move more freely while encouraging relaxation. In this session, we'll go through 5 of the best nerve gliding (nerve flossing) exercises to improve mobility, reduce tension, and help calm your nervous system. Nerves need to move and glide smoothly through surrounding muscles, fascia, and joints. When we spend long hours sitting, experience repetitive movements, or recover from injury, nerves can become more sensitive and restricted. Gentle nerve gliding exercises encourage healthy nerve movement without aggressive stretching, which may help reduce feelings of tightness, improve mobility, and support comfortable movement. In this 12-minute routine, we will perform: Sciatic nerve glide, median nerve glide, femoral nerve glide, radial nerve Glide and axillary nerve Glide, also spinal and neck nerve mobilisation sequence This routine is perfect if you: Spend hours sitting at a desk Feel stiff after exercise Experience general body tension Want to improve mobility The movements should feel gentle—you should never force or hold the stretch position, but 'glide' through it! Practice this routine 3–5 times per week or anytime you need to release tension FLEXIBILITY and HANDSTAND PROGRAMS https://flexformbyshan.thinkific.com STUDIO: https://jaya.pt/en/ SUPPORT: buy me a coffee http://buymeacoffee.com/flexformbyshan EQUIPMENT: https://eu.manduka.com/discount/flexf...
