Did you know your psoas major, a key hip flexor, attaches directly to your lumbar spine? This kneeling stance with hands on hips isn't just a pose; it's a diagnostic tool. By placing your hands on your iliac crests, you can feel for pelvic tilt. Gently tucking your tailbone lengthens those deep hip flexors, relieving lower back tension. 🧘♀️ Save this to check your pelvic alignment.

She came in with hips so tight she could barely squat to depth. We performed an assisted psoas release, using my hands to stabilize her upper body as she leaned back. This allows for a deep, controlled stretch through her anterior chain and hip flexors, creating space and mobility. Send this to a friend who needs this release! 😮
