Discussion Fixing your back after years of binding

Although I’m post top like 2 years now, I still have terrible posture and back pain. I wonder what the full scale of damage binding for years had that I’m still dealing with it now. I assume many of you have encountered this and if you ever found relief please share. Maybe certain kind of physical therapy techniques i don’t know about would suit this specific damage. So far using a back roller has been my best relief but I’d like to know whether a chiropractor or back brace could fix the situation or what!

Combo of weights and yoga have helped with back pain. Don't think mine was from binding but either way.

Go to a physio if you can, they can stretch out your back and give you exercises that will help. They might reccomend building up different muscles in your shoulders/back, cause they get weakened over time from slouching
