LFK in muscular-tonic syndrome

A complex of exercises for the spine has proved quite successful.

Initial position. You should take the most comfortable position while sitting on the floor. You should relax, feel all the muscles. Eyes are better covered. You should feel how the muscles of the buttocks come in contact with the floor, while relaxing even more. Then, align the spine, and sit in such a way that the load is maximally evenly distributed on both buttocks. The spine should be aligned as much as possible.

Then slowly raise your arms over your head, so that they act as a "continuation" of the spine. We continue to stretch as far as possible to the top. We connect hands over the head. Repeat the exercise 5-10 times. Then we lower our hands to our knees, contemplate the state, listen to our sensations.

Smoothly move on to the next exercise. Slowly we start the hands behind our backs. We press hands to the back tightly. We bend our head down. In this case, smoothly bend the spine, starting with the cervical region, then - the thoracic region, then - the lumbar, if possible, bend and the sacrum, the sacrum. We try to relax, in this situation we try to feel every part of the body. In this position, it is recommended to stay at least 5 minutes.

Put your feet on your knees, palms down. We try to tighten the lumbar spine as much as possible forward, then we bend (sternum forward, lower back, cicle - back). We sit in such a bend for at least 5 minutes. We try to relax and feel every part of the body. Returns to the home position.

Proceed to the next exercise. Put the hands on your knees. The right hand is placed on the left knee. Place your left hand in front of you in an upright position. Gradually we start to move the left arm up, and the backbone is bent to the right side, lowered downward. The hand follows the spine. If it turns out, we fall so low that the hand touches the floor. We stay in this position for 5-6 minutes. Then slowly go back to the starting position.

Repeat the exercise in the same sequence, only in the mirror image.

Then put your hands on your knees, sit in a comfortable position. Try to relax as much as possible to feel all the changes that have occurred in the body. Sit for about 5-10 minutes with your eyes closed, in a state of maximum relaxation. At the same time, keep attention to the changes that are taking place, contemplate the sensations.
