7 Stretches For Lower Back Pain
- Floor Hamstrings
In a lying position, bend the knees, and keep the feet on the floor. Elevate one leg upwards and reach behind the hamstring with both hands. Hold for 30 seconds, and then repeat with the other leg. While holding, you should feel the stretch through the back of the leg.
- Spinal Stretch
With the shoulders flat on the floor, cross one leg over the other and try to lower the knee toward the floor. Put the opposite hand on top of the knee and stretch it farther for 30 seconds.
Then switch sides and repeat. You will feel the stretch in the lower back, especially on the sides.
- Knees to Chest
Laying on the back, hold each knee to your chest one at a time for 30 seconds. For a deeper stretch, straighten the bent knee. To avoid applying pressure on your knees, put the hands behind the knee, and not on its top. This stretch is felt through the lower back and glutes.
