What Is Internal Hip Rotation & Why It Matters

Limited internal hip rotation has been associated with lower back pain as the lumbar spine is subjected to rotational motions it is not designed for.  It has been clearly identified in the research that limited internal hip rotation is correlated with lower back pain*. 

Lack of internal hip rotation increases the rotational stress on the lumbar spine as the body seeks to “find” the necessary movement farther up the chain.Using Core-Tex in a functionally loaded position, can produce immediate results in internal hip rotation range of motion and restoring function.  

Any rotational athlete (golf, tennis, baseball, etc.) wants adequate internal hip rotation to both remove stress from the lower back and enhance power through the hips. Hip mobility with your Core-Tex is quick, convenient and effective.
