Steps to perform Pelvic Rocking Exercise - Dr. Shefali Wangoo (PT)

Pelvic rocking helps in strengthening of your hip muscles, back muscles and abdominal muscles. It helps in reducing the back pain and increases your flexibility. To do pelvic rocking you have to use an exercise mat where in you have to attain a quadruped position like monkey position. You have to be on your knees and your hips have to be 90 degree and your shoulders have to be 90 degrees to the floor. We call it as camel and cat exercises. So you have to make a hinge of your back while you go down extend your lordosis. You have to extend your back while looking towards the ceiling. So the lordosis is increasing which helps in increasing the stretch over your abdomen muscles and hold it for 3 to 4 counts. Once you do come back to the normal position and then you have a hump on your back. The hump helps in stretching you upper and lower back. Hold it for 3 counts and then relax.
