Coccyx (tailbone) pain is more than a 'pain in the butt'. Treatment often focusses on the coccyx itself, but many things affect how well the coccyx moves.
Here are some of our favourite stretches for coccyx pain.
For such a tiny bone, the coccyx can be a difficult area to treat. A wide range of things can affect it, including pelvic floor tension, constipation and pressure dynamics (how you use your core), how you sit and how you move from sitting to standing.
If you find that you need more than stretches for your coccyx pain, you might find that hands-on treatment helps. Come see us in clinic. We take a whole person approach to coccyx pain and we've helped many people sit a bit more comfortably.
