Stretching for oldies

1. Stretching exercises before getting up 2. Stretching moves while reading e-mail 3. Stretching anytime ( don't just sit!) Stretching is ideal for retirees aches and pains! It is best accompanied by my favorite classical music collection. Reflexology following the morning stretching exercises. Massaging my toes when feeling hot and painful dissipate my neuropathy.
