Exercise Instructions
Step One
Seated on a chair or stability ball with feet planted firmly on ground, grasp both ends of the Thera-Band Roller Massager+ so that ridged roller is positioned across low back.
Step Two
Slowly stick bum out toward wall behind you, slightly arching low back.
Step Three
Gently roll the Massager+ up and down along the path of the shortened low back musculature, controlling the depth through controlling the amount of pressure placed on the muscles. In general, shorter strokes and sustained pressure in this shortened position will work deeper muscle tightness and knots. To increase the release of one side of the low back muscles, shift the Roller Massager+ to the side to target that region. Be sure to significantly reduce pressure when passing over the spine.
