Coccyx pain, also known as coccydynia, refers to pain at the base of the spine in the region of the tailbone. This condition is commonly aggravated by prolonged sitting, leaning back while seated, transitioning from sitting to standing, or after a fall onto the buttocks. In some cases, symptoms may develop gradually without a clear injury.
The coccyx serves as an attachment site for several pelvic floor muscles, ligaments, and gluteal structures. When mobility is restricted, surrounding tissues become irritated, or load tolerance is reduced, pain can persist and interfere with daily activities.
In this video, I’ll walk you through a structured rehab approach for coccyx-related pain. We will focus on:
• Improving hip and pelvic mobility
• Reducing excessive stress on the tailbone during sitting
• Strengthening the gluteal and deep core musculature
• Gradually improving load tolerance
These exercises are designed to help reduce irritation, restore normal movement patterns, and improve your ability to sit and move comfortably again.
As always, if your pain is severe, worsening, associated with neurological symptoms, or related to significant trauma, consult a qualified healthcare professional for an individualized evaluation.
