Body Intelligence – Finding ease for the lower back, 7: relations between the back and the hip muscles
by josefine | Jun 6, 2025
In this Micro Pause we explore the relationship between the lower back and the hips. Increasing the mobility of the hip joins often have a positive effect on lower back pain. We make a rather strong exercise, focusing on strengthening the muscles on the back and sides of the hips. Why strengthen? A strong muscle is an agile muscle! In this lesson you get to fire them up so they can start doing their work in carrying the weight of your body. When we work on strength, we also increase mobility.
