Tired of back exercises that promise results for herniated disc pain but deliver the opposite? Listen in as Mike Santamaria, a licensed physical therapist from JAG Physical Therapy, demonstrates the ONE herniated disc exercise that consistently helps resolve his patients posterior herniated disc pain.
Whether your disc herniation is at L4/L5, or a L5/S1, understanding the correct form and why this exercise works, is the first step toward finding real back pain relief. This movement focuses on controlled spinal extension and rotation instead of generic stretching which has been shown to aggravate disc alignment. A step our PT’s look to avoid! All you need is a TheraBand and some floor space and you’ll be able to manage herniated disc symptoms safely at home.
If you’re dealing with lower back discomfort, this targeted physical therapy technique provides a practical way to support your recovery process. Try this routine daily and let us know how your back feels in the comments.
