Bodywork Techniques for Lower Back Pain Piriformis syndrome should not be treated as an isolated situation, even if tests such as the Pace, Freiberg, and Beatty are positive. A stable pelvis, derived through proper upper and lower quadrant balance, is vital for long-term correction of sciatic nerve conditions. All ligaments and muscles attaching to the pelvis from above and below should be observed and balanced.Keywords:

The past few decades have witnessed the development of two diverse schools of thought, each with their own biomechanical explanations detailing the seemingly simple act of walking. In this article, Dr. Erik Dalton delivers a detailed analysis of both, through the Myoskeletal lens.Keywords:

The 'arched back' model is usually the most problematic. In an endeavor to level the eyes, the rider must hyperextend occiput on atlas. The cervicothoracic junction is also forced to hyperextend (neck-on-shoulders) resulting in chronically locked intervertebral joints and rib jamming.Keywords:

But when a woman wears high heels, a new dynamic equilibrium occurs. If even one body part becomes fixed, the whole system must compensate with altered movement patterns, resulting in kinetic 'chain' kinks.Keywords:

Jeff Thomson, Edinburgh, Physiotherapy, Sports, Injuries, Massage, Deep Tissue, E-Physiotherapy, Back, Neck, Strain Injury, Headaches Tight Muscles and Joint Dysfunction Tight muscles create asymmetry and weak muscles allow for asymmetry in both the myofascial and skeletal systems. Deep, intrinsic muscles and the bony frame of the body are inseparable: What affects one always affects the other. Until the therapist devises a basic understanding of how deep tissue techniques affect mobility/stability in the bony framework, random deep tissue work is contraindicated. Massage and bodyworkers who study chronic pain and postural problems profit by studying spinal biomechanics and learning to focus therapeutic intent on both myofascial and spine-related (articular)Keywords:
