How to do this exercise:

Stand with enough distance at a wall, doorframe or next to a stable chair and apply careful pressure directly beside the spinous processes of the lumbar spine with the thumb of one hand while the other hand is holding onto the wall, doorframe or chair.

Apply the force directed towards the center of the spine (= to the opposite side) while one leg is swinging front-back. You can also change the side you stand on and the leg that is swinging.

Start on the upper most reachable vertebra of the lumbar area (if possible L1) and step by step move downwards to cover the complete lumbar spine.

You may also repeat this with a sliding motion of the pressing hand downwards.

Always re-balance both sides of the spine.

Breathe normal and stay relaxed.

Time required: Approx. 1 Minute on each side.

Adjust exercise (pressure force, speed etc.) if necessary, in case of too much discomfort ot pain during the action.

Alternatively you can also pull the spinous processes towards the center using the fingers of one hand in case pressing with the thumb is not possible.
