- Dr. Rowe shows an easy way to decompress your back at home.
This exercise will focus on a pulling motion in the back, known as traction, to help relieve pressure off spinal joints quickly. It's especially good for bulging discs causing lower back pain and sciatica.
It requires no special equipment and may give relief within seconds.
Let us know how it works for you!

thank you for your service
Did this a few days ago after having a ton of back pain for around a week. My back popped and I felt a huge release of pressure. It was amazing
Best feeling fr
Was it loud

I tried this with my table and it flew forward and smacked me in the face. 10/10 highly recommended I completely forgot I had back pain.
😂 Yup. Now find a video on face and neck pain lmao

i don't know how youtube knew i was struggling with my lower back, but this came in clutch and worked so well. thank you!
@@JahreadyKnowno bro they literally read your thoughts, I had a dream about something I hadn't thought of in years and the next day it was on my feed
Your phone is selling audio and video of you complaining while pooping in the toilet
My guess is the whining and the smothered screaming. Which I did a lot of yesterday.
They listen.
Because they know you better then yourself
Factory worker and I do this and glad to hear it is an actual stretch. I tend to lean forward a lot more locking my waist to the surface and pushing my shoulder away trying to pull my spine apart. The pop is literally instant relief if you have a tight spot on your spine. Also grab something you can hang off of, and completely relax everything below shoulders. Around your tailbone area, you should feel your body trying to fight the relaxing as the gravity of your legs pulls down. Force your body to not fight it. Sometimes that one will crack but for me just makes the whole back feel less pressure
Thank you. Spinal compression from combat, compression fracture and a herniated disc from a car accident. This provided so much relief I can’t find words to express it.
Glad you're getting relief!
Combat 😅😂😅
Grow up!

Holy cow, that actually works! I don’t have lower back pain but really felt that stretch in my lower back, hips area. This is amazing
Glad it helped!
I will
Damn you're lucky
Works even better if you can find something thats tall enough that u dont havr to hold your legs up like he did. Bc flexing your muscles to hold your legs up, tenses your lower back as well and doesn't allow you to truly relax enough to get a good pull. If u can find something taller, if you're near 6', is best
You do now ;)
Jesus my phone listens to me better than the doctors 😭
😂 Google knows everything about us. I definitely needed this tutorial
😂😂😂😂😂 fr
Some healthcare were also surprise how could you hurt your back just by sneezing, I don’t know but it happens nobody understand🤷🏻♀️
LEGIT MAN I sat in the hospital for hours just to be told I'm fine, but then youtube kicks in the door like BANG HERES WHAT TO DO MATE like woah wth
It really does listen 🎶
As a bass player, thank you for helping prevent my scoliosis.
Happy to help, and check out: th-cam.com/video/jskwpSRXTrA/w-d-xo.html
Your videos have helped my back out tremendously. I love staying fit and I always love new forms on how to stretch out those hard to reach places
Glad the exercises are helping you!
I really wanted to try this out but, I've a bad dose of sciatica my back my left leg and left hip, new Sub.
Decompressing my back has never done anything for me. What relieved my Sciatica was heavy weights, working out my butt and lower back.
Yeah
How long did that take to work? And how would you say the results came?
@@quietdime a few weeks and almost all symptoms gone. It did get a little bit worse the first few days, mainly because I was untrained, but after a few workouts it started improving fast. Just be careful DO NOT put any weight on your back, just lift with legs and buttocks with your upper body as straight as you can.
@@HogbergPhotography Was yours cause by lower lumbar issues or piriformis issues?
@@quietdime 😂 I do not know, because Swedish healthcare is the worst in the world. If you are not acutely I'll or dying, you get no help and no medicines. In Sweden everyone needs to find their own way to heal their bodies. Swedish healthcare is basically free, but it is also almost useless.
I show my clients some of the exercises you showed 🙏🏽🙏🏽 I appreciate your work
Thanks for watching and sharing!
oh wow! i already do this naturally for fun. i had no idea it helps to relieve back pain!
Thanks Dr. Rowe!
I'm a student that sits too much, and this really helps my back after a long lab day!
Glad it's helping you!
Ahhhh my lower back instantly feels better. I've been unable to stand up straight. After this little stretch it feels so much better. Thanks 👍
Glad you're getting relief!
Were you walking like Toby Maguire in Spiderman 2 lol
I’ve broken my back a lot from t4 all the way to t9 so what do I do to get to the top of the back ?@@DrRowe
Working as a mover, I always felt like my back was getting compressed from carrying heavy stuff all day long. I would do something similar by finding bars or flat surfaces close to each other like dip bars and would life myself up just enough and then relax my back to let the weight of my legs stretch it out. Helped out so much.
Or lay flat, level with the ground and let the hips drop. That allows the lumbar disc to pop back in place. Holding it stretches those individual muscles between the vertebrae.
@JustinMcGough The version you're speaking of works better but it's unfortunately harder to find parallel surfaces that will allow for this. I've naturally done both as well as one letting my body hang off the bed but it's good to know it really works 😂...
Indeed, I love letting the weight I've my legs hang to decompress my back. I also find laying on my back, stretching out my legs and arms as if I was being pulled from both directions is great too.
Look into buying a lo-back Trax. Easier on your shoulders. It has been a life saver for me
I have horrible sciatica thank you so much for this!
Check out: th-cam.com/video/AKhId_uejmo/w-d-xo.html
Been doing these for years they're the BEST. Recommend trying them in between your barbell squats (hanging instead of holding tho)
I do this too during squats.
How do you do this hanging?
@@savvv4451 To do it hanging just do a normal deadhang from a pull-up bar
@@savvv4451 just grip a bar like a pull up bar or something overhead and let your body dangle as deadweight
@@Zypher565 also a dip bar works just fine, i actually find it better than a pullup bar for some reason
Thank you, Doc. All of your videos are a Godsend and I want to let you know how much they have helped me. Keep up the great work & God Bless 🙏❤️
Glad the videos are helping you, and thanks for watching!
The kitchen counter top is perfect for things like this - I use them to do half press ups etc and they will hold any weight 😊
Except yo Mama's!

What's better is one of those doorway pull-up bars. Hanging from it has helped me tremendously.
My lower back OPENED up and popped in ways I needed when I did this. THANK YOU
Thanks for watching!
This is only relief, not fixing the back pain. To never have back pain again do seated back extensions
Jeez it opened up? I hope you got it sewed closed.

@@LordPerrinNo…they’re chiropractors…. Lol
I’ve gone to chiropractors before and I swear I walk out feeling worse than I walked in. Stopped going and I turned to regular exercise, muscle building and practicing proper posture, movements and stretching.

Glad you’re getting relief!
This guy is just like comforting, idk what it is but he just seems super chill and nice.
Because he doesnt have backpain like the rest of us
Most Chiropractors are really chill and nice… because their craft is based in placebo. You won’t feel better if you didn’t enjoy the visit. Also why their machines tend to make a shit ton of noise and clanking/banging - it makes the patient *feel* like something is happening (when it really isn’t)
First pain free day I’ve had in a couple weeks. Thank you 🙏🏾
Wonderful!
How have people not been able to instantly figure this out on their own?
@@JTheraos I'd be afraid to do random things for no reason. From some kind of injury or pull years ago I now can randomly lose feeling on one side from the hip down. I don't want to be taking chances!
@@JTheraos Those of us with serious back and neck issues have to be very careful trying things out, as exacerbating our injuries can be very easy! Good job insinuating that we are all stupid though, thanks! I hope that you will never experience the type of pain that will make you terrified to move, in fear of making what already seems unbearable any worse. Have a great day, you ray of sunshine.

@@DrRowe How high should the table be compared to length
@@dries-pederjanse6249 As long as your body weight is able to hang freely to pull on your spine that's all that matters. Measurements will vary based on the height of each individual. There isn't really a good answer to your question other than this. Cheers!
@@chrisfrench9257 Oh yeah, I don’t know why I asked it back then, it’s really obvious
For those of you who has increased pain after doing this, you have spine instability and you should not do any of these spine decompression; instead, core building exercise and stretches like cat cow will suit you better.
I love your consistency with videos and dedication to helping others.
Hope all is well in your life. ❤
Thank you! You too!
Darn. My arms are too weak. I need to start exercising more!
Try flipping your hands from facing toward the counter top to facing you, that helped
Same, plus my counter is a bit high for me so it's hard to balance properly with shaky arms!
as a factory worker constantly on my feet and back this was so helpful after 5 mins 🎉
my shoulders hurt just thinking about trying this
I love doing this but I need to work on my shoulder strength because I almost popped my shoulder out doing this before 💀
Did this just rn and I felt like my shoulder is about to rip💀
I use a pull-up bar
Lol this made me laugh because it most likely will be me. 😂
I do this sitting in my desk chair. It has armrests, so I just slowly push myself up until my full weight is being supported by my arms and my butt is lifted out of the seat.
But that is for strengthening your arms not for stretching the back

Used to do this all the time for this reason, thanks for the reminder!
Also those upside down hanging by your ankle chairs are amazing. For me at least.
conversion table, i hurt my back 3 years ago and have had back pain every since, picked up one of those tables and my back pain isn’t gone but has significantly reduced.
@@benhartson thank you! And yeeeesssss im so glad that it helps you!
My issues arent so severe, but its daily pain, and they really do help a lot!
When you learn to relax your back muscles you will feel it big time
It's an unreal feeling
I was wondering if I was supposed to keep the back and core tensed or not
I think that's what he said
I do this all the time. It's really nice because you can literally feel the spine opening and stretching
When my spine locks (I have EDS and have actually had physiotherapists unlocking my upper back by force in the past) I tend to use a pair of forearm crutches and let gravity do its thing in a similar manner as in the video. When I was still able to work, there was a small gym at work and if my spine locked while at work, I’d go down to the gym and just get up on that thing where you hang on your elbows to lift your knees normally, only I’d just hang on my elbows and let my legs dangle to let gravity do its thing with my spine. For me it’s often vertebrae in my thoracic spine that gets locked, and I also have a mild case of Scheuermann’s disease (wedge shaped T11 and I have slight kyphosis because of it)
Exercises never did anything for me other than causing pain, and the physiotherapist using their whole body weight to unlock my spine was really a bit too violent and only helped temporarily. For me just letting gravity do its thing is what works the best both to unlock my spine and prevent it from locking as much. But yeah, I use forearm crutches rather than a countertop or table. I feel countertop isn’t high enough and there’s always cupboards above that I’d hit my head on.
Yeah I have EDS too but I had to get a L5/S1 fusion so I can’t really do this much anymore which is a bummer
Sorry what’s EDS?

Why’d you stop posting?
I have been dealing with Sciatica, and I never watch these type of shorts but somehow TH-cam recommended me perfectly what I needed 😅
Ive been doing this for quite few years since i started working around warehouses, hearing my back pop loud is so satisfying and relieving
The fact that I used to do this when I was getting period lower back pain and I didn’t even know it was already a known thing for decompressing your back HAHA!
So my countertop may not be sturdy enough so I'ma do this right now on the balcony wall of my 32nd story condo...get back at you if it works.
I usually hang from a pull-up bar (by my hands) and then slowly relax the muscles in my back and legs. It's a great feeling but you have to tighten everything back up before you drop down.
Ooh, so that's what I was doing wrong😅
Well I'm glad you don't mean by your neck!
Some just go ahead and hang by their fingernails from a high clothesline.
What happens if u don’t tighten up
Man being 6'4 and damn near 250lbs this is about the only way I'm able to crack my back 😭
I feel you. 6'6 foot here but scrawny a hell. My main problem is finding a counter tops high enough lol
not me trying to do this off my desk and nearly falling forward 💀
I’d love to do this, but I have chronic carpal tunnel issues. Do you have another decompression technique I could maybe use?
I second this! I don't have carpal tunnel but I've had a nasty encounter with some inflammation in the wrist tendons, so I'm a little afraid of putting that much stress on them again
@@TheLeafcuterUse your elbows instead.
When I was younger, I found that having sex standing up, with your partner holding you up and your legs wrapped around them, was one of the few things that miraculously unkinked the pinched nerve in my lower back. It worked on multiple occasions. That's exactly what this video reminded me of. Sorry for the risque response; it probably wasn't what you were expecting. But, you know, sometimes when you're desperate for relief you're willing to try anything, so just putting it out there. Not trying to make any assumptions about anyone's gender or sex life, but if it's an option for you, it may be worth a shot.
@@heatherbryant4197 Not sure how that would help OP's wrists (and mine, coincidentally), but now I'm picturing my 5'1" wife trying to lift up my 6'3" self with a strapon and I'm dying lol
@@makeitthrough_ because if her partner holds her up, she wouldn't need to put the strain of her own body weight on her wrists (particularly hyper-extended wrists, like in this video). I took a guess that OP "Angela" was likely female, based on the name. Don't know if she's married or straight, etc., but maybe she at least knows someone strong enough to lift her up. I figured it was worth mentioning. And I suppose it doesn't have to involve sex, but there's something about the movement, physiological effects, and duration of time that seem to help more than just someone lifting you up.
The picture you paint is hilarious though. Hey, if you ever wanted to try it, now you have an excuse! 😅
Remember not to do this if you plan to do any heavy lifting afterwards because this makes your back more vulnerable to injury
Do you mean decompressing the spine is bad before a heavy workout? Why?
@@donmoez6289 it's better to do any kind of stretch that isn't active stretching after a workout instead of before because it actually tires out the muscles even if it doesn't feel like it
But active mobility stretches can help warm you up before a workout
@@donmoez6289 picture your vertebrae like a slinky. When you stretch and expand it, the gaps between each joint open up and there’s more room for each vertebrae to wiggle around and cause injury. If the slinky is compressed you can’t wiggle the joints. It’s like stacking blocks being more stable than stacking spheres.
@@danieljoyce9982 Great explanation thanks!
Been doing this for more than 10 years. But what I do is usually like “drop” my body and my hands stay in position so that it kinda stretch and “crack” my back. Immediate relief each time.
I was expecting to be Rick Rolled
i like how he talks…he actually sounds like he is trying to help people
😂
I do this all the time. I was wondering if it was safe to do, now I know. thanks!!!
Just as long as you have something that can safely support your body weight. A dip bar works great too!
@@DrRowe on a dip bar, is there any Benbrook to doing a little jump so that the back cracks? I do this every couple hours working at a factory on some railings and it feels amazing. Just not sure if it's a bad thing to be doing...
Double bonus: Lift yourself up enough that you can swing your legs side to side a bit.
I can’t put all my weight on my wrists unfortunately but I’ll remember this for when I get the mobility again
Be careful not to go into this one too quickly and stay on your toes. I’ve thrown my back out completely doing the following
You must have exceptionally tight back muscles. Do unweighted deep squats/deadlifts frequently to get some elasticity back into that back.
@@grumpyguss thank you for the tip, if I stop this exercise too fast my back becomes excruciatingly painful!
You’re the perfect spokesperson lol. Didn’t even miss a breathe. Well done
I just love you Dr Decompression!❤️
Thanks so much for watching!
This worked a treat for my back but now I've got bursitis in my shoulders
If you have appropriate space and upper body strength you can suspend yourself between two surfaces (I use the handrails on my stairs) and then add some small swing through your legs, the additional force can help stretch out the lower lumbar, I personally have issues with my hips too that I find this can relieve. Just be careful not to swing too hard or you might end up making the problem worse. I also do dips in this position with my legs extended in front of me for a good general upper body workout
Yes!! This is great also!
P.S.: Just make sure to lower down slowly and carefully. When I had a major disc issue (complete L5/S1 disc had been squished into the spinal canal), I used to hold on to stairs/handle bars and let myself fully dangle in the air, which was AWESOME until the moment I had to come down again. Please just take your time doing things when you're having back issues. All things. Always.
What happened when came down?
@@tsemiu Shooting pain straight outta hell
@@Mini3389 pressure put back on the squished disc?
@@tsemiu Yes
Did you have surgery to keep the disc in place? I hope it got sorted for you.
After I decompress. I get a pinching sensation in my lower back. And then it spasms and locks up if I move too fast. Any idea what the problem is?
You have to be so careful on the way down. Go super slow and easy. I threw mine out one time when I went down too fast from decompression
He def has a good back
The instant relief is insane. Feels like I regained an inch or two of height just from trying it for the first time this morning. Wow. 👀
Glad you're getting relief!
You are taller in the morning..
I’ll be doing this on the counter everyday ! Not on a table, it will flip over 😅
Depends how heavy you are in relation to the table.
I started working from home and didn't have a good chair for a few weeks and ruined my lower back. Ever since I started following your video, my back pain is virtually GONE! You are a blessing. Thank you for all that you do.
Glad you're getting a lot of relief!
That looks like it’ll just transfer the pain to my wrists from holding myself up like that
Awesome! I do dead hangs everytime i go to the gym, I’ve been looking for a way that I could do it at work or outside the gym
129 views in 6 minutes on a sat morning! Good work Doc!
Yuuuuge
Give it some time :)
Lol
i used to do this when i worked at panera, i guess it was a natural instinct
I like to do it backwards, leaning over and letting the weight of my legs pull on my lower back decompress the spine. I typically feel a thudding crack with relief to my lower back
Ya, that is horrible to do. I know this after a back and neck injury from work and I have had 6 back surgeries and a neck surgery. So this guy is actually correct.
Thank you so much, I really needed to know this, I'm going to try it if my body will let me.❤
I flip my hands around and get nice mid thoracic pops - sometimes a lumbar will move and it’s pitched like 4 octaves lower 😂
I used to do this when I was a cashier, best feeling in the world
I am disabled & use a walker. I have 4 failed SI Joint surgeries. I would do this very thing on my walker- I would just “hang” there or I would use my counters. The Dr’s that messed up my SI’s TOLD ME it was all in my head. I stood up to them & made one of them try it. He could feel the decompression & never told me it was in my head again.
Dude, you have the best videos on how people can improve day to day mobility and reduce pain using their everyday environment. Keep up the great work as a physical therapy educator!
Will do, and thanks for watching!
Congratulations, Dr. Rowe. Your verbal presentation contained no unnecessary rising inflections, ie question marks. A solid sign that you trust your listeners to pay attention so they can understand on their own, without you constantly coddling that they ARE listening by constant use of rising inflection ie question marks. Also shows that you have a sure grip and confidence in what you are talking about. Bravo. A pleasure to listen to and soo much easier to understand.
Well said.
Was this a test?
Have you been reading Vanessa Van Edwards?
All your videos are very helpful and informative.... keep up the great work please....mixing your knowledge with yoga would work wonders for many viewers
What you’ve done for my back in minutes no one has beeen able to do for years I appreciate you sir thank you!
Glad to help, and thanks for watching!
Ohhhh my god, I love doing this!! I have scoliosis and figured this out on my own. I didn’t realize I was decompressing my back though!
I do that all day at work, forwards and backwards, nothing touching the floor, nothing touching the table but my two hands. Thank you.
Something’s it’s better to have your body flush against the surface. I pull a little traction forward and up while my hips stay locked at the counter- causing me to gently and with full control, decompress and stretch out your lower back.
This guys the man
My counter is now pregnant
Wtf
This dude is awesome! Helpful, straight to the point and a great communicator.
Thank you, and thanks for watching!
Great tip. The only sad thing is that those that need this the most may not have the strength or mobility to do so.
yeah this would hurt my hEDS joints in so many ways haha. gotta be careful. but it's cool it's helpful to so many other people
i did that as a child and my parents told me to stop it
I’ll give it a try! Thank you for the share!
Hope it helps!
