Trigger Point Massage

"I have pain in my groin, the outside of my hip, and deep in my butt when I hike." So how does that puzzle work? The adductors (groin) and the tensor fascia lat...a (outside of hip) are both synergists (helpers) for hip flexion. The deep butt muscles, like the piriformis,etc, are antagonist helpers for hip flexion. I tested the rectus femoris and found it was completely dysfunctional. The adductors and TFL were overworking to help hip flexion, and the deep butt muscles were overworking to oppose hip flexion. Released those 3 areas, activated the rec fem, and the pain and discomfort was reduced about 80%. She'll have to do a home exercise program, but off to a good start. Everything is connected. It's your job to figure out how. See more

Massage Therapist's Prayer Let me dedicate my life today to the care of those who come my way.... Let me touch each one with healing hands for the gentle art for which I stand. Let the divine force flow from me to you let our energy and spirit renew. And then tonight when day is done let me rest in peace if I helped just one. ~ Author Unknown
