Relaxing the Lower Back
Dr. Robert Hedeen and Dr. Cameron Khavari talk about the low back in this video. Most people think that the low back must be strengthened if they are experiencing pain. Instead, they should relax it. The three planes of movement include moving front to back, side to side, and rotation. A person should be able to do all three without pain. There is good stress and bad stress on the back. Good stress is exercise, while bad stress is sitting in a chair all day. It’s important to know how you’re loading the disc no matter what you’re doing. You can end up with pain in the leg or elsewhere from overloading the back. One exercise anyone can do is a press-up. They lay down and push back with their arms off the floor. This works the back of the disc after sitting for several hours at a time where you load the front of the disc.
