Lumbar Flexion Stretch - Deepstash

Lumbar Flexion Stretch

To gently stretch your low back, perform the seated lumbar flexion exercise. This is a perfect stretch if you have spinal stenosis .2

  1. Sit on the edge of your bed with your feet on the floor.
  2. Bend over, reaching your hands toward your feet.
  3. Arch your back.
  4. Hold for a count of 10.
  5. Repeat 5 more times.

You must be careful with this stretch if you have a bulging or herniated disc in your spine. This exercise may place increased stress on your disc, causing significant pain. If that happens, stop the exercise and check in with your doctor right away.
