  2. Exercises for Lower Back Pain Relief Lower back is a sensitive spot for many people. While there can be a ton of causes of Lower back painor Lumbar Spine Pain, a weak core and poor posture from sitting all day (and consequently shortening the hip muscles that then pull on the lower back) are two really common contributing factors to lower back aches and discomfort. It’s always important to figure out what’s causing pain so you can address it and prevent it from happening again. But in most situations, doing some gentle yoga exercises for lower back pain can help relieve tightness and give your lower back some relief. “Yoga is great for working on flexibility and core stability, correcting posture, and breathing—all of which are necessary for a healthy back, says Dr. Sachin Zadbuke of Achinta Ayurved who is an expert in providing Ayurvedic Treatment for Lower Back Pain If you have any history of lower back injuries, problems with your discs, or experience pain that lasts more than 72 hours without improving, you should see an ayurvedic doctor or your local physical therapist before doing any exercises. If you have an issue that requires medical attention, it’s best to address it before it becomes worse. If your lower back pain is more of a general achiness or discomfort, it’s worth trying some yoga exercises for lower back pain to address any tightness and alignment issues. Dr. Sachin Zadbuke recommends doing the lower back exercises mentioned below and holding each pose for anywhere from one to three minutes.
