Correct Denneroll Positioning for the Thoracic Spine- Chiropractor Demonstration

In this video, Dr. Luke Pocock from Naturally Well Chiropractic demonstrates how to correctly set up and use the Thoracic Denneroll orthotic to improve spinal mobility, posture, and overall thoracic spine health. A healthy thoracic spine requires good control through flexion and extension. When there’s increased thoracic curvature (kyphosis) or stiffness through the mid-back, the Denneroll can be a powerful tool to help restore extension and mobility in this region. 👉 Key points covered: • Correct setup and positioning of the Thoracic Denneroll • Adjusting for upper or lower thoracic apex placement • How to support the head to reduce neck hyperextension • Recommended time and progression • Safe ways to get on and off the Denneroll It’s important to build up gradually — start with 2–3 minutes per day and work toward 15 minutes over time. Consistency is the key. Think of it like braces for your teeth — constant, gentle forces create lasting postural changes. If you experience neck discomfort or dizziness, use a small pillow or rolled towel to reduce hyperextension, and gently tuck the chin to maintain comfort. Always begin and end your Denneroll session with spinal segmentation work (4–8 reps before and 4–6 reps after) to activate and integrate mobility through the thoracic spine. Ease into this process, stay consistent, and you’ll notice a major difference in your mobility, posture, and overall spinal health.
