Standing Child's Pose (Relieve Low Back Pain)

Compression In the Low Back, Hip Pain, and Tight Legs...
This Standing "Child's Pose" stretch is a great way to open up the low back, decompress the spine, and relieve low back pain.
How this is an upgrade from a typical Child's Pose on the ground is that you can integrate the entire posterior chain (back side of muscles), by incorporating the hip hinge and elongating the glutes, hamstrings, and calfs.
For people who have pain with back bending, FEEL tight and compressed...
this is a great way to alleviate that pressure on a daily basis.
2 Concepts Introduced Are...
1. Utilize Your Hips - pull your hips back away from your hands
2. Breathe Space - breathe into your abdomen to create space in the vertebrae and activate your lats and thoracolumbar fascia
