Lie on your back on an exercise mat. Rest your calves on a physioball (medium or large) so your legs are elevated. Doing this protects your lower back and helps flatten your lower back on the mat. Your arms are gently crossed across your chest. Using your abdominal muscles, curl up off the mat and twist to the right, feeling a muscular contraction on your right side. Make sure you're not using your neck muscles to assist. Your neck should be relaxed. Lower your torso to the mat and relax. Repeat on the other side, curling up off the mat and twisting to the left, feeling a muscular contraction on your left side. Lower your torso to the mat and relax.

Testimonial

  • "When I first came to Dr. Taylor, I had been having lower back troubles for a few months on and off. I am a lacrosse player and I was playing in a game when I received a very nasty body check which caused me very serious back pain for a couple weeks. Finally, I went to Dr. Taylor's office in mid June and met with her once a week until mid August. Over that time my back pain disappeared entirely and my (unknown to me at the time) uneven legs went from being an inch different in length to less than 1/8 of an inch. My posture also noticeably improved and I am finding new strength and flexibility in my game that I had never seen before. I look forward to working with her more when I return home on college break."
