SI Joint pain (or sacroiliac joint pain) is often felt in the low back, and it’s usually on one side or the other. Sometimes it’s called a pelvic rotation. Here are some SI Joint pain exercises to help provide relief.
Therapeutic Yoga is a great way to help relieve hip pain by incorporating physical therapy and yoga. Trudy, a fellow PT and registered yoga teacher from HEAL Wellness and Therapy, stopped by to guide me through some stretches and exercises for the hip.
Hip pain can be a daily challenge, whether it occurs in the morning after waking up or at the end of a long day. This guided, real-time hip stretching routine is designed to help relieve hip pain, hip stiffness, improve hip flexibility, and support hip joint health, whether you are starting or ending your day (or anywhere in between).
Tight hips can be a real pain! The hip muscles can get tight for many reasons, and it's often painful to stretch and/or strengthen them. Isometric exercises can be a great way to help relax tight hip muscles and help strengthen them at the same time.
Greater trochanteric bursitis, or hip bursitis, can be very painful and debilitating. These stretches and exercises can help relieve hip bursitis pain.
Stiff and tight hips can be caused by many things including arthritis, an injury & overuse. When the hips tighten up, it can also lead to low back pain and/or knee pain. These stiff hip stretches may provide relief.
These hip exercises are great for strengthening your hips to help relieve hip pain. They go from lying down to sitting down to standing up and range from pretty easy to hard depending on your injury.
These Pelvic Floor Exercises are some of my favorites. Since the pelvic floor muscles are small, it doesn’t take a lot of movement to work them, so it's best to start with a little and slowly work up.
These hip pain relief stretches & exercises don’t necessarily need to be done in bed, but they may help relieve hip pain in the morning before getting up, and/or when going to bed at night.
