Bilateral Knees to Chest

Bilateral Knees to Chest

To stretch an ERS and/or tight erector spinae to increase lumbar flexion:

  • Have the patient lying on their back and ask them to bring both knees up to the chest with their hands.
  • Instruct them to hold the stretch for 5 to 10 seconds and repeat 10 times to mobilize the lumbar spine into further flexion.
