🥩 Pain docs must intimately get to know the “filet mignon”.
Aka the PSOAS muscle in the cow.
But you’re not a cow, you’re human.
Ya know how you have low back muscles on the BACK of your spine?
You also have low back muscles on the FRONT of your spine.
It’s called the PSOAS.
When it’s glued up by ADHESION, chronic low back and hip pain relief will stay chronic and annoying.
👉This is how we find, feel, and remove adhesion from the PSOAS.
Before we treat any muscle, we typically:
1️⃣ Confirm with a patient’s symptom presentation and testing (usually with kneeling hip extension) that there’s likely adhesion in this muscle.
2️⃣ Then we define our borders so we know where we are looking and use landmarks Ie. the umbilicus in this case
PSOAS lives about 2” lateral to the umbilicus
3️⃣ The adhesion specialist must sink in so he isn’t pulling any skin and generate tension IN THE MUSCLE, again, not pulling any skin.
Finally the assistant can move the leg so the specialist can feel the tension building and apply tension in the other direction to tear the adhesion.
After 2-3 passes, we recheck the test to see if we got it!
👉 Pain docs & therapists - want to learn how to fix adhesion in the PSOAS and help your patients or clients get permanent low back & hip pain relief?
