This is an easy one that takes about 1 minute and will make a difference after a few days typically.

 

1. On all fours, hands over shoulder, knees over hips.

 

2.  First motion, you are going to straighten your leg behind you and then imagining your knee has a marker on it,you are going to draw a circle by raising your knee up and around until you return the knee back down to the start postion.

 

3. You will do that 5 times on each leg.

 

4. Second motion, same start position and you are now laterally raising your knee up to your side until it is either parallel to the floor or you cannot raise it any higher. (There is no need to go above parallel to the floor) You will do 5 reps each leg.

 

*1-2 times per day will make a large improvement in your hip motion and prevent stiffening and tightening of the hips.

I instantly felt better and Dr. Boelk kept encouraging me to trust the process and understand it will take time to feel 100%.  I am now pain free and honestly feel stronger, even a little taller.   I highly recommend you visit Dr. Boelk." - Ming T.   "I highly recommend Dr.Boelk to everyone who has issues with their back and neck. After 2 months of treatment I am feeling a considerable difference. Dr. Boelk's skills and experience are incredible. Especially I appreciate his "very cautious and attentive " approach to health: no unnecessary adjustment and procedures. I am very grateful to Dr.Boelk for his knowledgeable and professional treatment." - Olga M.   "Dr. Boelk & his staff are by far the BEST at spinal decompression. I walked into his office unable to sit to do my job, where I was having to lay each day & within a couple of weeks he helped me with being able to sit again. His attention to you & the way he will make you feel is unparalleled. First of all, he has suffered from some severe back issues, so his empathy is very high. Secondly, he is extremely caring & genuinely wants to help people. I've never worked with a doctor who has cared as much and made me feel like I was his only patient before. There would be 4 people there at the same time, and he still made me feel this way. I guess I just cannot thank him enough & cannot recommend him enough. He is an angel on earth. If you visit him, please listen to him & follow his instructions. He knows what's best for you. " - Erin T   We are 5 star rated on over 200 reviews.
