3 Yoga Stretches to Unwind the Low Back

Low back pain can make it hard to get comfortable — even sitting or walking can hurt when you’ve got an achy low back. Determining the root cause of the pain can be challenging, but oftentimes it’s a result of tight hips and hamstrings. Excessive sitting, running, walking or any activity that involves prolonged work or immobility of the legs without stretching can create tension in these large muscle groups. Because of their relationship (both placement and attachment of the hips and hamstring muscles) to the pelvis, it’s important to keep these muscles strong and flexible to avoid compression in the low back.
