Place one hand under the forward curvature of the spine. (see pic)
Tilt the pelvis anteriorly (upwards) till you flatten the anterior curvature.
This is basically done to
reduce the Lumbar Lordosis, because a tilted down pelvis allows the baby to use the
abdominal muscles like a hammock causing them to be stretched. This causes excessive
loading of the back muscles which are strained causing the typical backache of pregnancy.
Step 2
A-02
Same position as before
Lift right leg off the bed straight at the knee to a count of 5.
The other leg should be in hip knee flexion
Step 3
A-03
Same exercise. Repeat with left leg
Step 4
The first 2 steps are the same (Rt leg lifted
straight)
Next lift the other (left) leg with your hand at the back of your thigh and tilt the
pelvis anteriorly on your hand kept under your lumbar spine.
