Low back and hips feeling stiff in the morning or tired after a long day? Do you often carry baby on one side all day long? Do you sit at a desk all day or have a long commute to work? Then this is the perfect mobility exercise for you!
This mobility matrix provides a dynamic stretch for the iliopsoas, or primary hip flexor muscle, and the quadratus lumborum, located on the side of the low back between the ribs and the pelvis. When these muscles are tense and tight or there is an imbalance side to side, you often feel pain and strain in the low back. This mobility matrix can be done as many times as you need throughout the day to help you feel loosened up and ready to move on to your next task.
If you are limited by pain, tightness, and stiffness in the low back and hips, we can help! Call Life Changes Physical Therapy today for a free consultation to determine if physical therapy is right for you.
