Legs Up the Wall: Relaxation and Mobility for Tight Hips
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- Legs up the wall has so many benefits for tight hips and an over-stressed nervous system. And the best part? You can get the benefits by simply lying down. In this short sequence, you'll enjoy some gentle and supportive hip mobility work to unwind tension in your hips and lower back. You'll also feel more relaxed and calm afterwards!
If you don't have a lot of available wall space, you can close a door and use the back of the door or even lying in bed (my favourite place for legs up the wall).
Enjoy and make sure you share and leave a comment if you liked this class!

And when you do this your cat sits on your chest and purrs. So there's that benefit also. :-)
Aww how cute!
For the kitty, yes
My dog licks me in the face😂😂😂
I’d sooner not tbh … 🐈👎
@@atis9061. REALLY ???? 🙀
Grazie Prof, una splendida posizione
It’s better to use a cushion (rolled towel) under our back or close to the hip area to get closer to the wall
Should you do this on an empty stomach or is that not necessary?
at 78, I do this daily for 20 minutes! thanks!

After meal?
Wow. Like❤️. Done this exercise only for three days in the evening. Already paying off. First time felt terrible, my legs and lower back so stiff muscles . But tonight already so much better. Even my feet/ancles are better. Thank you.
I was getting swelling in one foot/leg and after only 2 10min/day sessions it is almost totally gone!! And the dog loves it--thinks I'm getting ready to play lol
Nice ex. Sure it will be en overall beneficial.
My cat hops on my chest as soon as I lie down. The purring is a nice bonus, as someone already mentioned.
This idea cured a persistent back pain I'd had all day, in about 5 minutes of just lying there with my legs up the wall. The effect was nothing short of miraculous.
That's amazing!
Best solution for varicose viens patients.
Firstimer. Thanks. Will be coming back
Awesome. Helped lesson my back pain immediately 👋👋
Excellent video. In our yoga class, legs up the wall is one of the ways of relaxing the body, after a physically invigorating vinyasa session.
A couple of additional drills that can be included (based on what we practice).
1. Before widening both the legs along the wall, one leg can be on the wall, and the other leg can be brought down along the wall to the floor to be perpendicular to the leg on the wall. Stay in this position for a few breaths, and slowly take the leg back along the wall to join the other leg. Repeat on the other side.
2. Bend the knees to come to bound angle pose (badhdha konasana) and gently do a few rounds of butterfly flaps.
My hip pain is lessened with this exercise. I try to aim for 30 minutes daily! glad it's good for me.
Your sit side ways to the wall suggestion has enabled me to getmyfeet higher up the wall😊
This feel incredible. I will spread the word 🤙🏾
I am not well at the moment 🤧😮💨when I feel a bit stronger I will trying the wall exercise to help with hips pain 😖 Can you do the side of the bed 🛌 or sofa 🛋️?
I love legs up the wall but never done it with any movement, I am stiff in my lower back & hips, right side in particular, Getting discomfort in buttock - piriformis? in figure 4 pose, any tips, thank you for all your information. Kathrine
Grt video 👍👍 Thank u I will definitely try
I have undergone Total knee Replacement of both the knees.
So can I do it?
I’m in fairly good shape and the “4’s” were easy for me but I was astonished at how taxing the rotations were, esp when my feet were closer together and then when they were at their widest. Thank you so very very much for this, I’ll continue these
Very useful.
This exercise is reducing pain unexpectedly.
Thanks.

This is exactly what I need! Sharing it with my besties too!
That was a great hip stretch. Whew!
Some clean socks might be beneficial for these exercises.
So nice x my right hip has a lot of tightness ..feel this helping x😮
I like that I can change the way my body feels in a few short minutes! Thanks so much Brea! 😃
I like to wear headphones, listening to chakra or binaural recordings.
Hi there
I just ran across your videos love love love this!!
So gentle so powerful
thank you!!
I'm subscribing 🫂👍💕
I love doing this while I play some of my favorite music - letting myself dance...move.... on my back! It just keeps me grinning!

This was legit while studying for finals!!! My hip pain is gnarly and this helped so much!! 💪🏼
Jst do it and your body will love it! Thanks so much❣️
Σάς Ευχαριστούμε !!!
Thank you, very helpful information.
Fabulous ‼️🥰🎶🙌
Hello.can i do this if i have problem with the lower back?
Thank you so much
Bree Johnson!!!
Just what I need it and didn't even know it 😃👍🏻
I can't even thank you enough for explaining how to get yourself in that position to begin with. I am 63, still work and am active but I am not flexible. Never was. Also bad knees. So, thank you again. Also, I have varicose veins with bad valves. I wear compression Stockings everyday and they are a life saver. I think that this will also help me immensely with that. Thank you so much again. P.S. I was so excited about you explaining how to get in the position to start that I subscribed to your channel. ❤
Thank you so much for sharing that with me! Happy that this is helpful for you and yes, so many people don't actually explain how to get your legs up the wall :)
❤❤❤❤❤ Biết ơn bạn.
Biết ơn về tất cả ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Mam i repeatedly get sacroillitis and have sciatica.... Can i do these exercises....any facility where we can take consultation from you...
Nice video. There are millions of yoga videos on UA-cam. Your explanations stand out. I’m a 72 yo guy and have knee pain walking up and down stairs. Watched that video which was great and I will do that. Looking for something about bursitis in hips. Didn’t see anything. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for that wonderful feedback, I'm glad my explanations stand out! I don't have any videos for hip bursitis however.
Have you ever watched Bob and Brad physical therapists on the internet? This is one, but there are several if you do a search.

Will. That posture ,
😊 help early waking
Love this! Thank you!
I used to call that The Obscene Stretch in ballet, as a joke. It is the perfect exercise though. vThanks for the modified refresher.
Is it good for the Psoas muscle?
Love this! I do the plain legs on the wall but I really like this variation!! Did it with you and will def keep doing it ❤ 🙏
How's it going?
I have ciatica problem. So, can i do this exercise
I had both hip replacement,wonder if rotation is good for me ?? Someone knows?
PT taught me to do this! Both hips replaced!😊
This seems ( she says, hopefully) that this is helping with a very sore psoas muscle. This has been a chronic condition with me, right side only. I've wondered if it is related to my spine curvature, which has caused one hip to be higher.
Thank you for this session. Frank
You look like a princess.😮
I do these upside down on the recliner. The backup and the leg extension out and my legs up on the back of the recliner. The ability to move the back of the recliner up and down also facilitates in the intensity of the exercises. Good stuff especially when you don't have a wall to utilise or you don't want to be on the floor.
What causes tingling down my leg when it is over my head?😮
I needed to roll up a towel for under my neck, fyi if you have neck shoulder issues it helps. ❤thank you this is very gentle and comforting.m
Video did not show, would have liked to see the demonstration of each movement . 😢Audio was good .
Pl repost video with above correction . Thx
These stretches are really amazing !! I have done them before and do them atleast thrice a week which gives a good relaxation to the whole legs and good sleep .. love it ❤
Thanks for your video
Thank you for sharing this short & sweet sequence to open the hip.
Will visit this one again. 👍
I don't feel deeply condemned, even while sleeping, many things play on my mind. There is a way to do that. Thanks for the help
Thank you. It's a great one to do and the benifits. Regards. God bless❤
I do this when.i wake up
This was great, thanks :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
Yes I make subscribes in I well do this everyday I do before a fees days I feel good
Out of site man ✌️
Thank you!
My leg was hurting I tried this thanks its helped a bit so will try it a few more times
My ankles were so painful in those internal and external rotations, it wasn't easy. 😢
WOW. The pose with the legs in a 4 position, then bent the other leg - that pose fired a trigger point in my glutes on both sides. I stayed at that a long spell. All the positions challenged me. I need this daily. My first time here and I'll be a regular.
Does doing all the movement stretch the hamstrings less?
Will this help me after being sick i has some crazy swelling in my right leg way more then my left??
Lol. I thought it was just me! I do the same. Except I fall asleep breathing so I have learned to do the legs up in bed. Just sent prop your bum a little.
I hope this does not sound judgemental. I like that you are built like a normal woman, are wearing modest clothing, and speak in a relaxed way, unlike some who look like they are training to be pole dancers.
Doesn't doing all those movements counteract the original purpose of doing legs up the wall? Just started doing this activity and I'm sure it will be good in the long run.
My tightness is in my groin, the left is worse. And it hurts.
Is this safe if you've had a hip replacement.... I'm 6 weeks post op .... My surgeon said I can do exercise like Pilates etc but I'm a bit weary about dislocation so if anyone can "advise" please and I accept it's not medical advice
Your physical therapist would have the answer… also show the therapist this video
Is it okay to not use a wall? Is it more beneficial to use wall? Thanks for your helpful video!
If you can do without wall that's great.. To hold for 20 mins we need abdominal muscles to be strong, so we take support of wall.
I dont like abs excersises, but do this excersise withou wall my belly fat dissapeared and much stronger core
Thank you!
Thank you, great video
Can you do this with replacement hips?
Very nice
Hi. Is this activity safe for a 71 year old
I keep getting pushed away from the wall. Any suggestions?
If you start with your body a foot or so away from the wall, that would help. Tight hamstrings and then placing yourself too close to the wall tends to make it feel like you're being pushed away from the wall.
I was so lazy to do this 😔 little did I know. Thanks my dear sister it was so awesome, I enjoyed it because of your support so we do this together.
Great info. Thank you.
Thank you ❤️
After dinner after how many hours should u do these exercises?
Excillent 👍❤
Thank you
For how many minutes do we need to do this for
Lovely feel great
I will definitely try this thank you!
I don’t have a wall nor a floor.😄
Can these wall on leg exercise be done by people who have undergone total hip replacement surgery after two from the gate of surgery.
You need to ask your own doctor these questions - People on UA-cam vids can't give you that kind of advice.
You talk too much. What a waste of my precious time
How about instead of criticizing and blaming you just move on and find a video that suits you? It is so simple to do that. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it is inherently bad and it doesn't mean no one else likes it.
Good .. i did n tore my pant😂
Brillant😊
From experience, be aware of those spring door stops.
😘😘
I guess this would be okay to do for your hip flexor?
I been stretching been trying
No mention of how many repeats to do.
Looks good can a person with osteoporosis do these activities
