The lunge stretch involved the patient stepping forward with 1 foot while the opposite foot remained flat on the ground. Keeping the torso erect and not bending over the front leg, the patient leaned forward until he could feel the stretch in the iliopsoas muscle in his back leg. Home exercises were used as treatment in addition to office sessions of osteopathic manipulative treatment. Date of download: 11/15/2017 Copyright © 2015 by the American Osteopathic Association.
