You can foam roll all day—but if your scapula isn’t stable, your thoracic spine stays stiff.
Here’s why 👇
• Scapular instability often causes compensatory rib flaring and thoracic hinge points.
• Without a stable base, the thoracic cage becomes hypermobile in the wrong spots and stiff in the right ones.
• Rib pain, intercostal strain, and costovertebral irritation? Often scap-driven.
Build scapular control before you chase T-spine “mobility.”
📌 Stability feeds mobility. Especially in the thorax.
