Plane of Motion

Coronal

Muscle Focus

Hip Abductors

Gluteus Medius, Gluteus Minimus, Tensor Fascia Latae

Objectives
  • Increase outer hip flexibility while in the supine position, allowing the leg to cross without disturbing overall alignment.

  • Use the co‐contraction of the abdominal and back extensor muscles to maintain proper torso organization as the stretch occurs.

  • Engage the deep abdominals to stabilize the torso, keeping the pelvis steady and preventing compensatory movement.

  • Focus on breathing to synchronize the movement.
