Back Pain Stretching Exercises
Start your muscle balance therapy standing erect and resting your hands on your hips, shrug your shoulders. For the count of ten, rotate your shoulders in slow motion to the left. Next, perform the same action while rotating the shoulders in slow motion toward the front. To avoid tension you need to stretch your triceps muscles, otherwise known as your extensor muscles. Lift your right arm, while standing erect and place your fingertips on your right shoulder. Use your left hand and push it against the opposite elbow. Lower the fingers on your right hand down the length of your back as far as possible, while pushing on your elbow. Count to eight and perform the same actions on the opposite side.
Next, stretch your arms. Stand erect, keeping your feet together and raise your arms level with your shoulders and stretch them outward. Circle your arms in a clockwise direction to the count of ten and then perform the same actions anticlockwise. Circle your arms as wide as possible.
Stretching For Back Pain
The next part of your back pain workout is to stretch your body and your back. Stand erect, keep your feet in alignment with your shoulders and gradually rotate your body from the waist and then stretch to one side. Stretch ahead and move your body in rotation to the opposite side. Extend back and around again to the opposite side.
Another exercise is to stand erect and keep your feet in line with your shoulders and slightly apart. Bend your knees slightly and lock your fingers behind your head and bend starting at the waistline, touching your right knee with your right elbow. Next, rotate your torso, rotating it to the left and then touch your left knee. Stand upright again and repeat this exercise three times.
Once you are standing erect, slightly move your feet apart and bend your knees a little. Put your hands together and raise them above your shoulders and twist to one side from the waist. Hold and count to five and then do the same on the opposite side. Next, keep your hips and legs motionless and turn the upper section of your body, only.
Extend your hands down your side, while standing erect. Bend your knees a little and gradually lift your arm as far as you can reach over your head. Slowly glide your free arm, sliding it down your leg and pull your arm so that it is over your head as high as you can reach. Stretch downwards on your thigh and then return to the upright position. Continue on the opposite side and do three reps.
Standing erect and keeping your feet in line with your shoulders, bend your elbows at the height of your shoulders. Join your fingertips and gently swing the arms towards your back, staying consistent with the height of the shoulders. Counting to ten, do this exercise from side to side.
To lose the back pain effectively, you must continue to exercise and stretch your muscles and body. Keeping your back strong and healthy is important for continual back pain relief.
