A chiropractor of one of my friends said to take a broom stick, put under your leg and on top of your leg, and then push one of your legs down into the stick with the stick stabilized.
example of what it looks like (done sitting down on a chair): put one of your knees up in the air and keep the other foot on the ground, then lay the stick on top of the leg that is down. stabilize the stick with your hands. Then take your other leg (stick should be under the raised leg) and push on it a few times. Sometimes you may hear a crunching sound and sometimes you will not). Then switch sides and do the same thing.
After that, your legs should feel better. When I feel unbalanced, I do this and I feel much better. Also a good thing for me after I started doing it is that my right leg does not pop as much as it used to (like when I have my legs straight lying on the floor and then I bend the left leg or when I am doing leg raises or leg kicks, etc.)
Try this and see if it will work for you. Make sure that the leg you are pushing down goes straight down like your trying to touch the ground with the foot thats in the air and not to the side. Also make sure the stick is strong enough to support your weight and pressure and that the stick is held on your thigh of the down leg and is pushed into from your hamstring of other leg. (Not the knee or calf).
Have anyone else heard of this technique before?
