Lying Back Stretch

lying back stretch

Technique

Lie on your back with your lower back into the floor, round the back and hug your legs. Move your body a little in the position, it feels normally more comfortable than holding the stretch completely static. Breathe a few deep breaths and feel your back muscles relax. Relax also in the shoulders area and neck. Breathe and relax and extend your spine.

Tips

This stretch is good to compensate the body for carrying a child and other every day duties.

Alternatives

Lie on the floor, put the lower back towards the ground, pull up and hug one knee alternately.

Great back stretch to prevent tension in your back muscles and the exercise also "massages" the back muscles a little at the same time.
