Exercises to relieve Back Pain
1. General treatment:
To provide more flexibility to your back muscles is the main purpose of lower back exercises. Its not only strengthens them, but also provide more support. Generally, people consider doing crunches and sitting ups to get rid of their pain. No doubt, they prove more effective but you really need some more exercise to get rid of it permanently.
2. Hip Flexor:
Just stand straight and lift one of your legs and bend your knee as it will position your foot upwards. Now remain in this position for at least two seconds. This exercise can be very helpful to relax your lower back muscles found above and near the hip. While doing this exercise you must breath heavily and you will feel a stretch on the front and back of your thigh.
3. Bridge:
For this simple exercise, all you need is a small bench at which you place your feet and lift your pelvis upwards. This exercise proves very helpful not only to release stress from your lower muscles but also to strengthen your hamstring
4. Crunches:
If you want to get rid of back pain instantly, basic crunches may prove helpful too. Just lie down on the floor facing upward and make a small pyramid with bending keens. Now keep both your arms under your head before starting the crunch, then bend upwards and touch your head with knees. Crunch will become more effective if you try to use your body weight to lift.
Though these four exercises can be very handy to get rid of back pain, before trying them you must consult your doctor and know the real cause of your back pain before thinking about any cure
