7 Great Exercises for Low Back Pain & Stiffness

Lower back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal problems in modern society, especially the kind where you feel it getting up from a chair or bending. These exercises are 7 of the best exercises for relieving—and more importantly preventing—tight, achy lower backs.

A lower back exercise regime should, at a minimum, include mobilising the lumbar spine in all 3 planes of motion. PLUS it should strengthen & activate the glutes, as well as stretch the hip flexors, to ensure the pelvis—the foundation of your spine--is properly supported.

I have been doing your shoulder blade exercises for several weeks now and it has made an IMMENSE difference in the pain that I had dealt with for years before finding your video. I have been having lower back pain and stiffness for several days now and I knew that I had to see if you had a video on lower back exercises! Thank you so much for sharing these videos with us! I am so grateful!

As far back as I can remember, my lower back has always been sore. Likely posture and trauma. It felt good after your easy to follow directions. Not pain free, just more relaxed. Sweet Cat!🐈‍⬛ THANK YOU!

Just started watching and doing your stretches. Thank you for instructing us, educating us and clearly stating the exercises including how much to push or not push depending on pain and needs. Just happened to stumble upon your channel while searching but have recommended you already to some friends. Thank you!

[patdobie]

Thanks this really helped my low back pain. I did a too-aggressive stretch earlier this week and this was great to reset my low back. Done it twice and the pain is almost gone.

Love the kitty. My little Lucie used to come and stretch with me.

Can these excercises also help when having back pain after standing for about an hour?

This exercise routine changed my life. After spinal steroid injections, this video has helped me improve strength and flexibility. My back pain is much more manageable now. THANK YOU!

I was doing the knee roll without even knowing it was good, I kinda loved how it stretched my waist.
I also enjoyed enough cake for today 🥮
