STRETCH AWAY BACK PAIN

12 SIMPLE EXERCISES
The exercises are based on the fact that the single most important thing you can do to support the lower back is to have strong abdominal muscles. Increased flexibility of all the large muscles of the body reduces stress on the spine, full length of the muscles required to be strengthened.

Some of the exercises demonstrated are:

  • Knee to chest: back and gleuteal stretch
  • Shoulder range of motion
  • Hamstring stretch
  • Hip flexor stretch

Order the video and view these and other exercises demonstrated with excellent technique.


EXERCISE EVERY DAY
Once you have back pain, you need to exercise every day. The more consistent you are, the greater the benefit. Regular exercise will ensure flexibility and strength for a lifetime of physical fitness.
