Like the static back exercise, this one helps to relax the
muscles which keep pelvis and back in correct alignment. If
you have any musculo-skeletal complaint I recommend you do
this exercise.
Lie with one leg comfortably on an ottoman or chair, the
other extended on the floor. Have a smaller block in place
to stop the foot of the lower leg from turning out. Lie in
this position for 20 minutes or more.
You may notice the sides are different, which suggests that
your pelvis is twisted. Gradually, over the days, the weeks
and the months this exercise will help relax the muscles
that are pulling your pelvis out of alignment; it will get
you back into better alignment; pressure will come off your
lumbar spine; pain will go away. |
