Exercises for back pain

Cat - Cow Stretch

The Cat-Cow Stretch is a gentle yoga movement that improves spinal flexibility and relieves back tension. Begin on your hands and knees. Inhale as you arch your back (cow), lifting your head and tailbone. Exhale as you round your spine (cat), tucking your chin and pelvis. Repeat slowly for relief.

Seated Forward Bend

The Seated Forward Bend stretches the lower back and hamstrings. Sit with legs extended, reach forward gently, and hold to relieve tension and improve flexibility.

Child’s Pose 

Child’s Pose is a restful yoga position that gently stretches the lower back, hips, and thighs. It promotes relaxation, eases tension, and is perfect for calming the body and mind.

The Bridge Exercise strengthens the lower back, glutes, and core muscles. Lie on your back with knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Lift your hips toward the ceiling, squeezing your glutes, then lower slowly. Repeat several times. This exercise supports spinal stability and helps relieve lower back pain.
