Is this for yourself or for a patient?
- HOW: Standing next to a wall, bring the inside leg up and the outside leg back creating a split stance position. Take the inside arm and place your hand on the wall out to your side.

Hold that stretch for a few seconds and return to the starting position to repeat for the prescribed amount of reps.
- FEEL: You should feel a stretch in your mid back.
