5 Stretches To Ease Your Lower-Back Pain

How often do you stretch your back to ease aches and pain?

These exercises will bring you the pain relief you've been craving.

A few tips to keep in mind before you get started

• Try to hold each stretch for at least 10 seconds and preferably 30 seconds or longer. The pain-relieving benefits will increase the longer you hold these stretches.

• Rather than rush through the moves, Costello recommends turning on soothing music and using this stretching time as a chance to relax and renew.

• Don't forget to breathe! It may sound silly, but it will help with any feelings of discomfort
