How to unlock your Hip Flexors?

Sep 5, 2023Hip Pain, Lower Back / Sciatica Pain, Pelvic Health

I wanted to send you a quick video, because if you are like most people, you have VERY tight hip flexors.

Your hip flexors are the engine through which your body moves. They connect your spine to your legs. They control balance, your ability to sit, stand, twist, reach, bend, walk and step.

Everything goes through the hips.

And when your hip flexors tighten, it causes a lot of problems in ordinarily healthy and active people, like you.

Do you have any of these symptoms?
  • nagging pain in your legs, hips, lower back
  • discomfort when walking
  • limited range of motion in the hips and lower back
  • can’t find a comfortable sleeping position

A functioning psoas muscle creates a neutral pelvic alignment, stabilizes the hips, supports the lower spine and abdomen, supports the organs in the pelvic and abdominal cavity and gives you greater mobility and core strength.

When it’s out of balance or if the Psoas tightens, there are serious consequences which affect the whole body.

And there’s one particular activity, that’s the biggest enemy of your hip flexor

It may be the most harmless activity, but it’s also one of the biggest dangers to your health.
SITTING
Weakness, shortening and tightness develops in the muscle through sitting for extended periods of time, poor sleep posture and even stress and tension.
I want you to watch the video below and do it with me. It will give you temporary relief. But I want you to know, opening up your hip flexors requires a number of fascia and soft tissue release, static and dynamic stretching, 3 dimensional core strengthening and mobility exercises. 
I specialize in developing such home programs for people and I’m ready to help you too!
These specific exercises beyond simple static stretching will unlock and loosen your hips, legs and back.
