Most people who experience chronic back pain have episodes that seem to come out of nowhere. How many times have you said or heard: “I think I just slept wrong,” or “I threw out my back when I bent over to pick up my shoes.”
You might be surprised to learn that the #1 cause for “bad backs” starts with the daily act of sitting. Sitting causes our pelvis to tilt backward. Under our body weight, our discs, ligaments, muscles and tendons become OVERSTRETCHED. This overstretching gets worse over time, and will ultimately expose you to back injury.
Take the initiative, and actually prevent back injury!

The MECA™ Protocol
Daily:
Pigeon pose, down
(right and left sides)
1 minute
Pigeon pose, up
(right and left sides)
20 seconds
Daily for 6 months - then 2x/week thereafter:
Lay on the MECA back wedge
at the end of the day
10 minutes*
Half bridge to get off wedge
hold for 10 seconds
* For excessively stiff spines, laying on the wedge may be initially uncomfortable. If you experience this, bridge off the wedge every minute (holding for 3 seconds each time) during the 10 minute duration. As your spine becomes more flexible, laying on the wedge becomes increasingly more comfortable
