9 Simple Stretches for Hip and Lower Back Pain Relief!

Admin Admin March 20, 2018

About 26 million people in the United States, between the ages of twenty and sixty-four, experience back pain.

If you have a sedentary job or sit in front of the computer for too long, it may result in tightness in your shoulders, hamstrings, and hip flexors and a weakening of your core (lower back, abdominals, and glutes).

As your hip flexor is connected to your lumbar spine, once it gets tight, it may tug uncomfortably at your lower spine, leading to lower back and hip pain.

Nine Simple Stretches for Hip and Lower Back Pain Relief:

– Happy Baby Pose

It helps open up your lower back and stretch your hip flexors.

Lie down on the back with the knees bent. Draw the knees up towards the chest.

Bring the arms inside of the thighs, reaching for the outside edges of the ankles or feet. Make sure you keep the lower back pressed into the ground.

Take some gentle rocks side to side to massage your lower back.

Stay in this position for thirty seconds.

– Seated Twist

It helps release your lower back, piriformis, and glutes.

Sit in a tall upright position with the knees bent and the feet on the floor.

Start crossing the left leg over the right to bring the left foot outside of the right thigh, and then draw the right heel in towards the left sit bone.

Tent the fingertips behind you.

While inhaling, lengthen through the spine. While breathing out, twist to the left and wrap the right arm around the front of the left shin.

Your gaze needs to be straight ahead or over the left shoulder, as well as the neck needs to be long.

Stay in this position for thirty seconds. Gradually untwist on an inhale before switching sides.

– Cow Face Legs

It helps stretch your outer legs and lower back.

Start in a seated position and place the bent left knee on top of the bent right knee (your feet need to be flexed and your knees properly stacked).

Stay in this position for thirty seconds.

– Wide-Legged Forward Bend

It helps stretch your hamstrings, lower back, upper back, and glutes.

Stand with the feet out wide and the toes pointing straight ahead.

Bend into the knees, while bringing the hands to the floor and folding the chest over the legs.

Keep your knees bent and allow the head to hang heavy.

Let your weight shift slightly towards the toes.

Stay in this position for thirty seconds and gradually stand by rolling up one vertebra at a time.

It helps open up your adductor muscles and hip flexors.

Stand with the feet out wide. Make sure the toes point out at forty-five-degree angles.
