5 Simple Exercises to Ease Lower Back Pain
Lower back pain is one of the most common complaints we see at SPC Physiotherapy — and for most people it is closely linked to long hours of sitting and weak core muscles. The good news is that a few simple, consistent exercises can make a real difference.
Why your back gets stiff
When you sit for long periods, the muscles that support your spine become tight and deconditioned. Gentle movement restores mobility and rebuilds the strength your spine needs.
Five exercises to try
- Pelvic tilts
- Knee-to-chest stretch
- Cat-camel
- Bird-dog
- Glute bridges
Start slowly and stop if anything feels sharp. If your pain is severe or persistent, book an assessment so we can design a plan tailored to you.
