Do you find you are sitting for much of the day? Here's a set of movements to help your posture and avoid hip and pelvis pain.
The full pelvic control routine is made up of nine movements, including:
- Knee roll
- Pelvic tilt while lying and sitting
- Rocking
- Standing knee bends
- Leg lifts
You can try all nine movements, or choose the ones that best match your needs and ability.
In this video, Neurophysiotherapist Jo Pritchard demonstrates a modified hip twist. It is best performed with something to create resistance, such as an exercise band. Remember, do check with a health professional before starting any new form of exercise.
If you found this exercise useful, Jo covers a range of exercises as part of her full Pilates circuit, which has been adapted for people living with MS.
