Adho Mukha Svanasana (Downward Facing Dog)
The Downward Facing Dog is designed to target the hamstrings which are often affected by low back pain. For this pose, you also start with the tabletop position. Then, tuck your toes and raise your hips while keeping your legs straight. Your body should form a triangle shape with the floor. If you do not feel comfortable, move your hands slightly forward. If your back hurts, you can bend your knees a little bit. Hold your position for 10 breaths, then move on the next move.
Pigeon Pose
If your low back pain is caused by tight hips, the Pigeon pose may greatly help because it targets the hip flexors, iliopsoas muscles, and hip rotators. For this pose, start with the Downward Facing Dog, then pull your knee behind your right wrist. Your right foot can either touch your right hip flexor or placed slightly forward. Stretch your left leg backward. The top of your foot, shin, and thigh should touch the floor. Lift your torso and use your hands to support your weight. If you want to stretch yourself even more, you can put your hands in front of you and drop your torso lower to the floor. Hold your position for 15 breaths, then get back to the starting position and switch sides.
