Helps With
A grounding hip-opening stretch that helps relieve tightness, support posture and ease pressure through the pelvis and lower back as your bump shifts your alignment.
Instructions
-
1
Sit Tall
Sit tall on your birthing ball with shoulders relaxed and back pulled in line with your spine.
-
2
Extend Right Leg
Slide your right leg behind the ball until it is fully straight.
-
3
Align Posture
Make sure your back and shoulders are pulled back in line with your spine.
-
4
Lean Back
Lean back slightly, maintaining balance, until you feel a stretch at the top of your thigh.
-
5
Deepen & Switch
Push gently forward on your left knee to deepen the stretch, hold comfortably, then switch sides.
Tip
Keep most of your weight on the ball, not on the back leg — the goal is to lengthen the front of the hip, not to lunge.
