Lower Back Pain Exercise

• Ankle pumps- moving your ankles up and down while lying on your back
• Heel slides- slowly bending and straightening your knee while lying on your back
• Abdominal contraction- lying down on your back. Tighten your abdominal muscles to squeeze your ribs down toward ground.
• Wall squats- stand while leaning against a wall. Bend both knees to 45 degrees but keep your abdominal muscles tight.
• Heel raiser- raise upon your heels and down.

Intermediate lower back pain exercises

• Single knee chest stretch- lying on back, both knees straight. Bring one knee up toward your chest.
• Hamstring stretch- lying on back with holding one of your thighs in air.
