Exercise To Getting Rid of Back Pain

Hamstring Floor Stretch

Steps:

• Lie on your back with a bent leg.
• Using a straight rope or with your hands, pull the straight leg up and toward the head. Pull until you feel a comfortable but difficult stretch.
• Hold for 30 seconds and do the same with the other leg.
• Repeat this twice.

What it does: hamstring stretches can reduce back pain by stretching the thigh muscles. Longer muscles relieve pressure in the lower back and relieve pain.

Lying Spinal Twist

Steps:

• Lie on your back, with your arms stretched to the sides, perpendicular to the head.
• Lift the right leg and use the left hand to pull the right leg over the left leg and toward the floor on the left side.
• While doing this, slowly turn your head to the right side.
• Remain in this position for 30 seconds.
• Now slowly return to the original position and repeat on the other side.
• Repeat it twice.

What it does: It works by releasing tension in the lower back and strengthening the shoulders. It also stretches the supportive vertebral muscles.

Psoas Stretch

Steps:

• Start standing
• Move the right leg forward and the left leg back while bending the right knee. Keep the upper body straight.

• Now move the upper body forward, keeping it straight.
• Using your left hand, pull your left heel up.
• Hold for 30 seconds and change.
• Repeat twice.

What it does: The main task of the psoas muscles is to flex the hips to lift the thighs towards the trunk. They also help stabilize the spine. These muscles come into play when we move, but they are negatively affected if we sit too long.

If these muscles shorten or tense, it can cause back pain. Stretching the psoas stretches and strengthens the muscles of the psoas.
