Essential Steps for Healthy Hips

For strong hips that move freely, you first need to stretch tight muscles that limit your range of motion. These techniques can be practiced daily and offer a gentle approach to help you release tension and free up your hip joints in preparation for more challenging poses.

If your hips have been restricted for some time, the increased movement in these poses and sessions will improve circulation and energy flow to the entire pelvic area. Practiced regularly, these stretches will soon increase your hip flexibility.

Most of us sit for long hours every day. This often leads to weak, shortened hip muscles that can pull the pelvis out of alignment. These courses will build upon the increased range of motion you developed in the first two steps. By strengthening and stabilizing your hips, you'll help maintain optimal alignment, which can prevent and reduce discomfort in the hips and lower back.
