5 Exercises for Lower Back Pain

Staying active is the most important thing you can do to recover from back pain. Try to carry on with your daily activities, as resting too much could cause the pain to get worse. This sheet includes some exercises you can do to reduce your back pain, and they’ll also help improve the strength and flexibility of your back.

Your back pain should start to ease after two weeks and will usually pass after four to six weeks. You may not need to see anyone, but if the pain doesn’t get better in a few weeks, or if you have severe pain while doing the exercises below, make an appointment with your GP or physiotherapist. You can also speak to a pharmacist.

If doing exercises at home by yourself doesn’t help your symptoms, physiotherapy could be a good option, as you can get advice and exercises that are more tailored to you. It’s a good idea to carry on exercising once your back pain has got better, as this can reduce the chances of it coming back. Swimming, walking, yoga and Pilates are helpful exercises for your back. Try to pick an exercise you enjoy doing, as this will help you stick to it.
