In this video I demonstrate the ELDOA for T6-T7. This ELDOA is wonderful for those experiencing mid back pain or for anyone who wishes to take a preventive approach to maintaining the health of their spine.
Steps to do the ELDOA for T6-7 are:
1.Make sure you are well hydrated before you begin an ELDOA practice.
2.Sitting with your legs crossed on the floor, equally distributed your weight between both sit bones.
3.Bring your hands in front of your chest and press your finger tips into each other and raise your hands overhead.
4.Maintain axial extension, a straight spine, from your tailbone to the crown of your head.
5.Press your arms away from your body and towards the sky very strongly.
6.Keep your hands pressed together.
7.Push your feet and knees to the ground.
8.Maintain the tension you have created and hold for 10 deep, slow breathes which works out to be around 60 seconds.
9.Come out of the position slowly releasing the upper body, followed by lower body, then relax your chin, and spine.
