After treatment and bed rest, the condition is relieved and the acute period is over, and then comes the rehabilitation period to restore the lumbar function. The right amount of lumbar exercise in this period will receive twice the result with half the effort. There are many methods of lumbar exercise, but the following method is suitable for the rehabilitation period, which is easy to implement and effective. This waist exercise method can be summarized as waist exercise “10 words through”. First, hanging: the use of door frames or bars and other things to drape exercise. Suspension to relax the waist and lower limbs, so that the weight of the natural sag, in order to achieve the purpose of pulling. Dangling movements must be slow and light, to avoid jumping up and down to operate the lumbar spine. Hanging exercise should gradually increase the amount of exercise, and persistent. Note: The action should be gentle, slow up and slow down, try to let family members on the side to help protect. The second is propping: that is, propping exercise, not suitable for draping exercise can do propping exercise. Feet crossed and shoulder-width apart, the whole body relaxed.

Statistics show that the lumbar spine daily forward flexion up to 3,000 to 5,000 times, but after the extension of the action is very little, at the same time, modern people are often in a forward-flexed sitting position at work, this position makes the lumbar spine in a long-term flexion position, in the long run, will cause an imbalance in the lumbar disc stress, lumbar ligament overstretching, thus causing back pain. Arms placed on the waist, feet crossed and shoulder width, the whole body relaxed, in the waist up straight stretch at the same time the waist back stretch 36 times, twice a day. In addition, supine method can also do backward stretching exercises, arms will try to support the upper body, the lower body against the bed, so that the waist as far back as possible, repeatedly do this action 36 times.

Massage method: there are several points on both sides of the spine, can be along both sides of the spine from top to bottom, gently snap back. Nine is warm: that is, the waist warmth. Suffering from “lumbar synostosis” or lumbar pain people, in the change of seasons, the weather becomes colder than normal to add clothes, cold season to wear wool, cotton undershirt, summer to do a good job to prevent the waist moisture cold work, because these are the cause of lumbar disease.
