Mobilisation exercises for lower back disc injuries
Mobilisation exercises should NOT increase your pain or discomfort. If they do, it means that the movement is too intense for your injury and that you should either make the movement easier, or try an easier mobilisation exercise. The following movements are ordered in level of difficulty; 1 being the easiest. If you feel no symptoms at all during a movement, then you can progress to the next one.
The goal is to reduce stiffness in your lower back over 5-10 minutes.
(1) Deep Breaths
Perform 4-5 slow deep breaths at a time, so as not to hyper-ventilate. Then rest for at least 30 seconds.
Repeat regularly throughout the day to help reduce stiffness, and relax your body.
