Here is a great stretch to target both your lats & your lower back muscles. As we know, the lats blend into our Thoracolumbar fascia (thick connective tissue at lower back region) which is often where a lot of tension is stored. Of course, it is always better to get assessed and know WHY you have tension in the first place. At moov pt we assess pain by doing a full body assessment in order to find the real cause of the pain and not just treat the site of pain. We will guide your rehabilitation to move you out of pain using gentle exercises and techniques. Getting you results you never thought possible.
