Stretching Exercises for Seniors Over 60 - by Sam Creed (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Are you getting to an age where movement is becoming a problem?

Are you finding aches and pains in places you never had before?
If you have reached that age where you grunt and groan when putting on shoes or bending down to pick something up, or if you take longer than usual to get out of bed in the morning, you are not alone. Millions of seniors struggle with movement as they age and once you reach 60 it's easy to let it get the better of you.
But it doesn't have to be like that and just a few minutes of simple stretching each day can make a big difference.
