Psoftening the Psoas

Use an overball that is initially under inflated
Place ball in the abdomen directly under the navel.

Step 1

Lay on prone over the ball with your hands folded under your forehead and legs out straight with the hips rolled in.
Relax over the ball and breathe through the rib cage and back.

Step 2

Start with 30-60 seconds as tolerated

Progress by increasing time to 2 minutes and later by inflating the ball to increase firmness
