Ever notice a zing in your lower back while picking your baby up from the crib?
Maybe you’ve noticed low back discomfort after a long walk out with friends?
Or, if you’re like most people, you might have an achy low back while sitting on the couch watching your favorite movie.
Life is busy and filled with all types of movements and postures that can flare your lower back pain. Instead of “pushing through” your pain and discomfort this fall, or avoiding movement out of fear, why not befriend your back with simple, pleasurable movements drawn from yoga and physical therapy?
Dana Podell, a physical therapist and yoga therapist, has created this workshop to help you live with a healthy and happy low back, regardless of your age or fitness level.
What you’ll learn in this workshop:
Basic low back anatomy so that you finally understand where your pain is coming from and how to prevent future pain
Simple tools to address acute (sudden) and intense lower back pain so that the next time your back pain flares you feel confident in knowing how to alleviate your pain
Therapeutic yoga based movements to strengthen the lower abdominal muscles to support lower back alignment so that you can sustain a healthy low back in any yoga or movement practice
Accessible therapeutic yoga movements to ease your nagging sciatica pain and helpful lifestyle tips to prevent future sciatica flares
Comfortable resting positions to ease your low back pain with restorative yoga and meditation
After the workshop you will be sent a recording of the workshop that will be accessible for 6 months and a handout that summarizes all of the information covered in the workshop.
