Inhibited rhomboids from upper cross syndrome (from sitting forward all day at a desk) can create weak muscles full of adhesions. Sometimes you might feel like you have a knot under your shoulder blade that’s hard to reach. Grab a ball and try this release out against the wall or floor! Getting adjusted, improving muscle imbalances and correcting posture are also helpful. To book: @evolvechiro Model: @kennedyoungg

Upper back muscle work. . Trigger points, or "knots," are sensitive spots in the soft tissue that can refer pain to other areas of the body. They are local contractions of smaller muscle fibers within a larger muscle. These can occur from a number of factors including acute or chronic muscle load, trauma, or stress to name a few. . I prefer to use a lacrosse ball against a wall to control how much pressure to place on the trigger point compared to doing it on the ground. Using a lacrosse ball is more specific in the local areas worked on as compared to a foam roller. . Wrapping your arms in front of you while performing this muscle work in the upper back will help move the shoulder blades out of the way so that you can work the soft tissue more. Of course, everything should be worked on to individual tolerance. . Tag a friend below who can use this!❤️ @cftrainingyard

Repost @docjenfit ✨LOW BACK MOBILITY FLOW✨ Here’s the thing about low back typically the pain is NOT the problem!! The lower back is either taking on extra load or mobility due to a lack of strength or mobility in the areas above or below!! . What does this mean? A low back massage will probably help for about 1 hour (maybe 2) A low back directed exercise might exacerbate the issue (or just not help at all - at least not in the beginning) Traction and adjustments will work just about as good as the massage - maybe last throughout the day or 2 Icy Hot or any other patches and electrical stimulation will help for the hour - maybe the night Stretching directly at the low back might also alleviate some temporary pain for that moment . So, again... what does all this mean?! Attempts to relieve temporary pain is HELPFUL and good. None of those options are BAD. But again... temporary relief only MASKS symptoms. . If you want to actually address the cause and relieve the pain from possibly coming back, you must address your body as a whole. Find out where restrictions are along your body Find out where weaknesses are within the body Do you have a lot of stress currently in your life? What kind of foods are you putting in your system? . . Note: videos are SPED UP! ⚡️Thoracic Rotation: squeeze a ball (or pillow) between the knees to keep the hips stacked and low back in minimal to no rotation. BREATHE into the belly & low ribcage slowly as you rotate and hold. ⚡️Hip Mobility Flow: Hold each exercise for 1-2 minutes & BREATHE. . . . #backpain #lowbackpain #chiropractors #backpainrelief #kneepain #headaches #sportsinjury #chiropractic #chiropractor #jointpain #sciatica #shoulderpain #lowerbackpain #neckpain #painrelief #musclepain #physicaltherapy #physio #prehab #spinehealth #getadjusted #spinalhealth #acupuncturist #triggerpointtherapy #musclerecovery #neckpainrelief #injuryrehab #movebetter #footpain #plank

Tightness in your front hip or outer part of your knee? Your Tensor Fasciae Latae (TFL) joins the upper part of the ITB to your pelvis. Any gluteal weakness will cause compensation of your TFL. Your TFL is responsible for hip flexion, abduction and internal rotation. To find it, go below your pelvic bones. It might be tender to touch. Try releasing it with a ball! Start with light, tolerable pressure.

➡️ Upper back pain ⬅️. ⏹⏹⏹⏹⏹⏹⏹⏹⏹⏹⏹⏹⏹⏹ Use a Tennis Ball or Lacrosse Ball to help lengthen this area. Lay on your back on a firm service and place the ball In-between Scapula and Spine. Take care not to push on spine with ball as you can bruise tissue easy. Cross arm over body and allowing ball to glide over Tissues. Hold sensitive areas 3-10 seconds. . www.perfitfitness.com @paintherapy. . . . . . #muscle #musclepain #crossfit #triggerpoint #strengthtraining #mobility #gymmotivation #fitnesstrainer #fitness #massage #fitfam #muscles #personaltraining #physicaltherapy #exercise #exercisephysiology #bodybuilding #triggerpointtherapy #crossfitgirls #massagetherapy #chiro #posture #traps #shoulders #backpain #stevemurpheyupperback #selfmyofascialrelease #scapula #headache

Your Latissimus Dorsi is a large, broad muscle that brings your arm down and back. When trigger points are present, you can feel referred pain below your shoulder blade. Repetitive motions, such as with throwing, golfing, and swimming can lead to overuse. Pain but no numbness into your 4th and 5th finger? Might be your lats! Use a ball against the wall to help release knots.

WEEKEND RECOVERY ‍♀️ Why #foamrolling ? 1 - it’s like an inexpensive deep tissue massage 2- breaks up scar tissue which leads to healing and faster recovery 3- Allows for more ROM which aids in injury prevention and overall better performance 4- promotes better circulation and can also be used as a preworkout warmup Foam rolling has made my training performance better and it will for you too. I would recommend at least an hour a week. . How many of you roll out? . FYI- I’ve included #foamrolling follow-along videos in my workout program!

Overactive, tight upper traps? You and everyone else! Some may benefit from using a ball against a wall corner to address upper trap trigger points! Only use a tolerable amount of pressure and remember to BREATHE. To book your treatment: @evolvechiro or call 403-474-7792
