Quick Yoga Pose for Low back Pain After Sitting All Day

This is a quick tutorial on Reverse Pigeon, a yoga pose that stretches both the psoas major and rectus femoris muscles, two muscles that can get quite tight after sitting all day! The psoas major attaches to the front of your lumbar spine, and the rectus femoris to the front of your pelvis just above where the front of your thigh meets your torso. Because of this, when they are tight, they can actually pull on your low back and tip your hips uncomfortably forward. Give this a try to relieve some low back pain after sitting all day! Taught by Dr. Janine Bobby Ellison, physical therapist, of Full Bloom Women’s Physio and Yoga in Tennessee. Let us know what you think!
