Nerve Glides

These nerve glides will mobilize and stretch the nerves in your lower body to reduce tension or irritation and improve range of motion.

  • Level 1: Lie on your back and hold the back of your thigh on the unaffected side. Extend the leg up towards the ceiling with a relaxed foot to feel a stretch in the back of your leg. Complete 10-20 times before switching to the irritated side.
  • Level 2: Setup the same as level 1. Flex your foot and bring the toes towards you to get deeper into the stretch. Complete 10-20 times before switching to the other side.
  • Level 3: Setup the same as level 1. Extend the leg, flex your foot and lift your head. Complete 10-20 times before switching to the irritated side.
