The Secret Easy Tips to Loosen Your Hips In 10 Minutes

Stiff hips can often cause discomfort, and ultimately back pain because of how one thing relies on the other as its seat. However, there are ways to improve it without taking years to get to where you want to be:

One bit at a time

Warm up and massage:

• Massage the front and back of the thighs to loosen tight muscles.
• Use your body weight for effective massaging.
• Relax and breathe slowly while massaging.

Vary your stretches:

• Perform a seated butterfly stretch, but avoid overexertion.
• Move knees gently within a comfortable range of motion.
• Perform stretches like placing one foot on the opposite knee or holding legs to open hips.
• Stretch the hips while lying on the floor with bent knees.

And now for the “magic move”: lie on your stomach, bend one knee, and gently rock to loosen hip stiffness.

Generally speaking, for most stretches one can usually stretch further on one side at once, than both at the same time. So, leverage this in your flexibility training, to get each side of your body accustomed to going that bit further. Then, when your body is comfortable with that, put it together.
