pectoral stretching difficulty

[numbers]

hello

As i have very forward shoulders, and they have rounded significantly, i don't have sufficient range of motion to be able to stretch the pectoral muscles well enough.

can anybody suggest a plan of action to really stretch the pectorals in these cases of significant rounding.

What do you mean by range of motion (ROM)?

Most people have underlying shortening of the Pec Minor, in which case self stretching all day won't help. Most benefit is gained from the precise application of stretch via a friend (or a physio).

As above,
