8 Stretches That Can Relieve Lower Back Pain
                     Stretches That Can 
Relieve Lower Back Pain
Lower back pain is a common ailment that affects many people. 
In this presentation, we will share eight different stretches that 
can help relieve lower back pain and improve mobility!
With this stretch for lower back pain, start by lying face 
down, then place a rolled-up towel under one armpit while 
reaching overhead with the opposite arm to stretch.
While standing, bend one knee up toward your chest while keeping the other leg 
straight on the ground. After holding here for a few moments, alternate legs and repeat 
this lower back pain stretch to feel amazing relief on both sides of your background.
While standing with your feet shoulder-width 
apart, bend forward slightly from the hips.
In a chair with both hands on either armrest, you can lean back slightly to feel an 
amazing lower backstretch that feels great after sitting at your desk all day! Be sure 
not to slouch or round out your back as you lean back!
While standing, place one foot on a stool. Keep the other leg straight and bend your knee 
off the lifted leg to feel an amazing stretch in that leg’s glutes, lower back muscles, hip 
flexors, quads, and hamstrings! Hold this for 30 seconds or more before switching legs.
You can also do this stretch while standing, but place one foot 
behind you so that your heel is resting on the ground. With a 
straight back and core, hold for 30 seconds before switching legs!
While standing with both feet planted firmly on the 
ground, bring one foot up to your butt and hold it there 
while you place that same hand on top of the lifted knee.
Keep in mind that if your pain is severe, at-home 
stretches might offer some relief, but they won’t be a 
cure. For back pain relief in Chicago, turn to Illinois Pain
