Standing Hamstring Stretch
Is this for yourself or for a patient?
- HOW: In a standing position, bring your feet in at about shoulder width apart. Keeping your knees straight, bend forward at the hips and attempt to touch your toes or the ground in front of your toes. Go as far as you can comfortably stretch with no pain. Hold that for the prescribed amount of time.
- FEEL: You should feel a stretch in the back of your thigh.
- COMPENSATION: Don’t bend your knees, keep them straight.
