Understanding Back Pain

Before performing the exercises, it's essential to understand the root causes of back pain. Most back pain stems from muscular imbalances, poor posture, and lack of movement. Addressing these issues through targeted exercises can significantly reduce discomfort and prevent future occurrences.

The Exercises

  1. Standing Back Extension

    • Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart.

    • Place your hands on your lower back.

    • Gently arch your back and hold for 5-10 seconds.

    • Repeat 5 times.

    • This exercise helps counteract the effects of sitting for extended periods and provides immediate relief.

  2. Seated Spinal Twist

    • Sit on a chair with your feet flat on the ground.

    • Place your right hand on the back of the chair and your left hand on your right knee.

    • Gently twist your torso to the right and hold for 10 seconds.

    • Repeat on the other side.

    • This twist helps improve spinal mobility and reduces tension.

  3. Cat-Cow Stretch

    • Start on your hands and knees.

    • Arch your back (like a cat) and hold for 5 seconds.

    • Then, dip your back down (like a cow) and hold for 5 seconds.

    • Repeat 10 times.

    • This exercise increases flexibility and relieves tension in the spine.

  4. Pelvic Tilt

    • Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor.

    • Tighten your abdominal muscles and press your lower back into the floor.

    • Hold for 5 seconds and release.

    • Repeat 10 times.

    • Pelvic tilts strengthen the lower back and core muscles.

  5. Child’s Pose

    • Start on your hands and knees.

    • Sit back onto your heels and stretch your arms forward.

    • Hold for 20-30 seconds.

    • Repeat 3 times.

    • This pose gently stretches the lower back and hips.
