Feel better while working from homeTake 1-minute stretch breaks

For optimal results, we recommend taking a 1-minute stretching break every hour. StretchMate offers three customizable frequency levels: light (every 2 hours), moderate (every hour), and intensive (every 30 minutes) to fit your work schedule and wellness goals. Start with moderate frequency and adjust based on how your body responds.

StretchMate includes multiple routines with desk exercises specifically designed for professionals working from home: neck and shoulder stretches to relieve tension, wrist and hand exercises for repetitive strain prevention, lower back pain relief stretches, upper back posture improvement exercises, hip flexor stretches for seated workers, and eye strain relief techniques. All exercises are beginner-friendly and require no equipment.

No gym equipment, yoga mat, or special space required—just you and a comfortable chair. Most exercises can be done seated, with some requiring just enough space to stand up briefly.

StretchMate includes targeted exercises for common computer posture issues: forward head posture (chin tucks), rounded shoulders (chest openers), hunched back (upper back extensions), and tight hip flexors (hip flexor stretches). Our routines address the muscle imbalances caused by prolonged computer use, helping you maintain better posture throughout your workday.

Desk exercises are designed to complement, not replace, your regular fitness routine. While gym workouts and yoga classes build strength and flexibility over time, desk exercises provide immediate relief from the specific muscle tension caused by sitting. Think of them as maintenance stretches—quick interventions that prevent pain and discomfort from accumulating during your workday.

StretchMate exercises are designed to be gentle and safe for most people, but if you have an existing back or neck injury, we recommend consulting with your healthcare provider before starting any new exercise routine. Our exercises are low-impact and focus on gentle stretching rather than intense movement. Start with the lightest frequency setting and listen to your body—if any exercise causes pain, stop immediately.
