Sit Smart: Invest in a cushion designed for tailbone relief. It works wonders, especially if you spend long hours sitting!
Warmth Therapy: A hot water bottle or warm compress can be your best friend. Apply it to the affected area for 15-20 minutes to soothe discomfort.
Gentle Stretches: Incorporate simple stretches into your routine. Try knee-to-chest stretches, figure 4 and/or child’s pose to relieve tension in the lower back and the back of your hips.
Posture Check: Maintain good posture, whether sitting or standing. It takes the pressure off your tailbone and promotes overall spine health.
Move Regularly: Don’t be a couch potato! Regular movement helps prevent stiffness and improves blood flow to the affected area.
Pelvic Floor PT: Seriously, don’t underestimate the power of Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy! A skilled therapist can guide you through exercises to strengthen and relax specific troublesome muscles while addressing the root of your pain.
