[QUOTE="kbell, post: 1083162, member: 1773"] [URL]http://gokhalemethod.com/[/URL] I've been following this method of sitting, standing, and sleeping. Basically your stretching the spine during the major positions and it tends to feel quite good. I found a practitioner in the area which helped me out figuring out some of the movements. Child pose is great for lower back without round the back to much as in Rabbit pose. [MEDIA=youtube]V22xxybieHk[/MEDIA] And another view... Looks like you need lose muscles for this one. [MEDIA=youtube]5ZxbcqHaGaY[/MEDIA] Another stretch I like is the pigeon pose which targets the periformis muscle deep in the glutes. If the muscle is irritated it can trigger sciatica since it right next the sciatic nerve. The muscle helps rotate the legs outward I believe. [MEDIA=youtube]jQMsyrLowFw[/MEDIA] Hamstrings stretches are great for low back pain as well. I make sure I bend the knee a bit to put the stretch more in the muscle rather than the around the joint.
