Beat SI Joint Pain: Strengthen & Protect Your Lower Back (Part 2)

Tight legs and hips may seem par for the course as you age, especially for those of us who find ourselves sitting at desks or in the car day in and day out.

Many of us assume there is nothing to be done and it’s just a part of life, but with proper movement and care, we don’t have to live with this chronic pain at all!

A Tight SI Joint:

In our last vlog, we discussed what to do if you are experiencing issues with a loose SI joint. What happens when our SI joint is too tight?

Tight glutes, hips, core, and back muscles can all be signs of a tight SI joint, and relaxing this joint can help reduce chronic pain and help alleviate the tightness in these areas of the body.

Here are some stretches to incorporate into your daily routine in order to stretch the SI joint, move better, and get out of pain!
