Standing Inferior Hip Mobilization - Band
Is this for yourself or for a patient?
- HOW: Loop a strong band around a kettlebell. From here place one foot on top of an elevated surface and loop the band around your hip with the weight hanging down in the air pulling down on your hip. You can stay stationary and allow gravity to pull the weight down on your hip. Or, you can lunge downward to allow even more of a pull on the hip.
- FEEL: You should feel a downward stretch on your hip from the band pulling downward.
- COMPENSATION: Make sure the band is looped high on your thigh/hip. Make sure the weight is heavy enough to create a stretch in your hip.
