How to Do a Supine Pelvic Lateral Tilting | MedBridge

The Supine Pelvic Lateral Tilting exercise targets the muscles responsible for lateral pelvic movement, improving flexibility and stability in the lower back. This exercise is beneficial for those recovering from lumbar compression fractures.
Steps
1. Setup:
Begin by lying on your back with your legs bent and feet resting on the ground.
2. Starting Position:
Position your pelvis in a neutral position.
3. Execution:
Lift one side of your pelvis a few inches towards the ceiling. Lower it back down and repeat on your other side.
4. Return:
Return to the neutral position and repeat the lateral tilting movements for the desired number of repetitions.
Key Points
• Proper Alignment: Maintain a neutral spine throughout the exercise.
• Controlled Movement: Move your pelvis slowly and with control to ensure effective muscle engagement.
• Focus on Muscle Activation: Concentrate on engaging the muscles responsible for lateral pelvic movement.
• Breathing: Exhale during the lift and inhale when returning to the starting position.
• Avoid Excessive Movement: Ensure equal movement on both sides of the pelvis.
Benefits
The Supine Pelvic Lateral Tilting exercise enhances lateral pelvic mobility, core stability, and lower back flexibility. Regular practice can help alleviate lower back pain, improve posture, and support recovery from lumbar compression fractures. Strengthening the core muscles contributes to overall spinal health and function.
