A dancer came in with a locked-up thoracic spine, unable to hit her full backbend. We used this partner-assisted camel pose variation. Her partner provides a stable base, allowing her to release her quads and psoas while I guide her shoulders into a deeper, safer arch. She felt an immediate release through her entire front body. 🤸‍♀️ Send this to a friend who needs to open up their back! #wellness #movement #flexibilitytraining #backbend #partnerstretch #spinemobility

Is your lower back feeling chronically stiff? This is a targeted pelvic tilt exercise. From a kneeling position, focus on isolating the lumbar spine. Contract the glutes and abdominals to achieve a posterior tilt, then slowly release into an anterior tilt to mobilize the sacroiliac joints and decompress the facet joints. Send this to someone who needs this specific mobilization. ⚙️ #pelvictilt #lowbackpainrelief #spinemobility #physiotherapy

Did you know assisted stretching can bypass your body's natural stretch reflex? This allows for a much deeper release. Here, the partner provides stable support at her arms, allowing her nervous system to relax.
