Sorry to hear of your injury! That sounds scary. Hope you're doing better now and glad these work! 🤘

Thanks Doc. This may sound weird but can I ask you where did you get that rug from? That's a good model for us as we have a grey sofa and a dark blue armchair.

I like how #5 looks. Do you think #5 would be helpful for my sciatic and spondylolisthesis?

It can be helpful for some with spondylo, but best to try it gently and see how it feels...thanks for watching!

Yes! #4 and # 5are new to me and absolutely brilliant! My back feels that stretch. The stretches revealed some knots mid back too, that was deep. Doc, how do tight glutes and psoas figure into these stretches? Say, if my psoas is tight, will these stretches help alleviate tight psoas?

@drjonsaunders

These decompression stretches likely won't help with tight glutes/psoas muscles...it is hard to isolate one muscle in a stretch and the benefits of trying is questionable at best...that being said some people can tolerate/benefit from some stretching...see if any of these feel good for you: kzread.info/dash/bejne/iIWh0Luxgc--hdY.html

Afternoon Doc. Can i ask would these be safe aand effective for thoracolumbar Fascia and muscle joints strain and sciatica? Thnks 🤘

Best to try and see how it feels. Only go to your tolerance.

Are these safe to do if you have hernited disc and back.pain?

@drjonsaunders

Only certain ones - but your spinal health care provider will have to tell you which ones are best for your specific case.

Are these exercises safe if you have partial sacralisation of L5?

Yes they should be as long as they don't cause pain...but, I always recommend you check with your doctor...best wishes.

I find that in the 2nd stretch, if I'm not feeling it, I just inch my hands higher up so that the palms are closer to the crease in the groin, and then I sit into the locked arms.

How come prolonger sitting can compress the spine while prolonged standing will not, yet, all of our weight is on our spine when we stand.

@drjonsaunders

Standing upright engages muscles and when sitting we tend to get lazy, transferring the forces to the discs rather than the facet joints. Best wishes.

Hmm I had no problem hearing you. I thought you spoke loud enough and quite clear.

All poses are really God for decompression except cobra pose, which made me feel pain in lower back. But I believe its only about my own back posture.

Glad you enjoyed my video.

I’m curious, anyone else experienced real discomfort right at the base of the spine/tailbone area right after doing the fifth exercise? It feels so ginger and painful that i fear if I tried to bend down or twist I would experience shooting pain but if I laid down flat immediately afterwards for 20 minutes or so, it feels better. I know I should probably just see a medical professional but was just curious if anyone else experienced this.
