  1. Exercises to Alleviate Back Pain at Physiotherapy Langley Do you suffer from persistent back pain? Does it affect your everyday life and work? Through targeted techniques and exercises, physiotherapy can help alleviate your back pain. Langley, BC, physiotherapists are skilled in developing personalized treatment plans that help their patients improve the quality of their lives and overcome back pain. Explore some of the essential exercises that physiotherapy specialists in Langley recommend for relieving back pain. 1.Pelvic tilt Exercises like pelvic tilts can strengthen the lower back and abdominal muscles and promote better alignment of your spine. How to perform pelvic tilts Lay on your back with legs bent and flat feet. Your lower back will flatten if you tighten the abdominal muscles. Relax after a few moments of holding. This exercise should be repeated several times. Aim for 10 to 15 repetitions in each session. The pelvic tilt can help to relieve lower back pressure and activate the core muscles. 2. Stretch Cat-Cow This gentle stretching exercise is inspired by yoga and improves flexibility while reducing tension. The exercise consists of two parts: Begin on hands and knees with wrists under shoulders and knees underneath hips. As you inhale, arch your back down (cow pose) and lift your head and tailbone. As you exhale, round your spine upwards in the cat position. Tuck your chin into your chest. Focus on breathing deeply and repeat this movement fluidly for 10 to 15 repetitions. This stretch improves spinal flexibility and provides relief to tight muscles. 3. Bridge Exercise Bridge exercise targets the glutes and hamstrings as well as the lower back and core muscles. It also promotes strength and stability of the pelvis and core. To perform the Bridge, follow these steps: On your back, place both feet on the ground with hip-width apart. The knees should be bent.

  2. As you raise your hips to the ceiling, engage your core muscles while squeezing your glutes. After holding the position of the Bridge for five to ten seconds, slowly lower yourself back down. Continue to repeat this exercise 10-12 times, increasing each time the length of the hold. The bridges can be used to support the lower back and strengthen the posterior chain. 4. Trunk Rotation Stretch This stretch improves the mobility of your spine by reducing stiffness. How to perform it? Lay on your back with legs bent and flat feet. Rotate your knees gently to the side, keeping your shoulders on the floor. Stretch your spine and lower back for between 15-30 seconds. Repeat the same process on the opposite side. Try to do 2-3 repetitions per side. Stretching the trunk rotates is a great way to release tension and improve flexibility. 5. Deep Abdominal Stabilization The strength of the transverse abdominal muscles supports the spine. Try out this exercise. Lay on your back with legs bent and flat feet. Allow your stomach to rise as you inhale. Draw your belly button toward your spine as you exhale to engage your deep abdominal muscles. Keep your normal breathing while holding for 5-10 seconds. Repeat this 10-15 times. Exercises that strengthen the abdominal muscles can improve posture and help to stabilize your body, which reduces strain on back muscles.
