Pelvic Tilts reduces tension in the lower back, which in turn takes pressure off the sciatic nerve. It’s especially beneficial for those with sciatica caused by muscle imbalances or poor posture.
INSTRUCTIONS:
👉Lie on your back: Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor, hip-width apart. Place your arms at your sides, with your palms facing down.
👉Engage your core: Tighten your abdominal muscles and press your lower back gently into the floor, pulling your belly button to your spine.
👉Tilt your pelvis: Slowly tilt your pelvis upward by squeezing your glutes and gently lifting your lower back off the floor.
👉Hold this position: Maintain the contraction in your abdominals and glutes for 3-5 seconds.
👉Return to the starting position: Slowly release the pelvic tilt and return to the neutral position with your back flat on the floor.
👉Repeat the movement: Perform 10-15 repetitions, focusing on engaging your core and glutes throughout the exercise.
