I am Sure you can manage a few of the stretches they might help your body. Areyou able to walk at all? Sometimes just a little trip outside can help too, even if it is five mins out turn round and 5min back at your own pace. Ask a friend to come with you if you feel a bit unstable.

hiya, nah I need crutches 2 walk, have done 4 over a year+ if I walk 4 10 minutes my back spasms. I've been isolated 4 mths n so called friends are nil. It's a lonely existence, sumfin I am saddened by. The thought of going outside on my own gives me anxiety even as I write this. Any suggestions will be gr8fully appreciated.

How are your shoulders and neck while you are sitting down?

Would you possibly be able to do steps one to four on this for 10 seconds only?

This would be a great place to start if you can, I would try and do it every other day to start with and then we can see where we can go from there
