Hip Flexor Stretch with 4 Variations (Tight Psoas Muscle)
For people looking to Tight Psoas Relief, Hip Flexor Pain and Low Back Pain relief.
This video guides you through a hip flexor opener with 4 engagement variations as a great way to open up the hips, reduce tension on the psoas, and help with low back pain.
Chronic sitting, poor posture, and imbalances in muscle engagement will all cause a tensioning of the psoas and deep front line of muscles; this in turn runs up the spine and can cause a tensioning on the spine.
At The Source Chiropractic we use this in combination with adjusting your spine and pelvis to help you improve the movement of your low back, help get out of low back pain, and perform chiropractic adjustments for improving the function of your spine.
​
Add this stretch to your daily mobility routine to get out of pain, balance your body and improve your life.
