Microbreak Mobility: 4-Min 3x Daily

Hours at a desk can compress posture, stiffen shoulders, and tighten hip flexors. A simple 4‑minute microbreak—done three times a day—restores motion, wakes tissues, and lowers tension. Combine light movement with a clean, odorless botanical gel to make relief part of your work rhythm.

The Why: Long Work Blocks, Tight Chains

Whether you’re typing, toggling screens, or on calls, the body holds still while focusing forward. Over time, protective tone builds up and tissues feel “stuck.” Microbreaks reset this tone before it escalates into nagging discomfort.

The Science: Movement Inputs and Nervous System Signals

Joints act like sponges—they need motion to circulate lubrication. Pausing every 90–120 minutes to move and breathe feeds the joints, pumps blood, and reassures the nervous system that you’re not under threat.

Why Odorless Support Fits the Workday

Office spaces, shared desks, and remote calls all benefit from low‑input relief—no fragrance, no icy shock. ReJüv’s botanical gel absorbs quickly and disappears into the routine, just like your microbreak.

The Application: 4-Minute Microbreak Flow

Perform this routine three times per workday: mid‑morning, early afternoon, and late afternoon.

1) Downshift Breath (30 sec)

Sit tall or stand. Inhale softly through the nose, exhale longer through pursed lips. Repeat for 3–4 cycles to lower shoulder tension.

2) Neck Figure‑8s (45 sec)

Slow, small loops—think “infinite” sign—with the tip of your nose. Keep shoulders relaxed. No pinching or sharpness.

3) Desk Wrist Rolls (45 sec)

Interlace fingers, draw circles with wrists. Switch directions halfway. Shake hands out gently.

4) Seated Hip Walks (60 sec)

March hips side‑to‑side at the edge of the chair, creating a gentle shift in low‑back and hip tissues.

5) Odorless Gel Reset (45–60 sec)

Apply ReJüv 3oz Gel to forearms, neck base, or low‑back for clean, botanical comfort. The gel dries quickly and stays unscented, ideal for meetings or shared spaces.

Product Connection: Sized for Desks and Bags

Keep the 3oz Gel in your backpack or desk drawer. The 8oz Gel lives well at home for post‑work sessions. Explore options in the full ReJüv Collection.
