- Strengthening of buttocks is helpful: Shalabhasana (locust) http://my.yoga-vidya.org/video/back-strength-with-yoga-asana, inclined plane on elbows: http://my.yoga-vidya.org/video/inclined-plane-on-elbows, cat pose http://my.yoga-vidya.org/video/cat-pose-dynamic-variations, side inclined plane http://my.yoga-vidya.org/video/side-inclined-plane-on-lower
- Small pelvic movements, several times a day, are very good: http://my.yoga-vidya.org/video/relax-your-back-yoga-pelvic

One has to be careful with the following asanas, which should be modified:
