This video will show you how to do a Brachialis Release for Arm Pain. The Brachialis muscle is a very strong flexor of the arm. This muscle attaches from the humerus bone to the ulna bone (elbow) and is located underneath the bicep muscle. Muscles can get injured if there is too much use, if it is too weak, or if muscles do not glide or slide properly past each other. In this case of arm and elbow pain, the Brachialis muscle is often affected.
To help release the pain within the arm and elbow you may need to do a few things. First, keep in mind that the pain you have may not actually be the site or cause. This means that just because you are having pain here, it does not mean it is the actual reason why. You must look at the cause of the pain and understand why the pain is occurring in the first place.
If you determine that this muscle needs to be released you will likely have to do a few things. First, since the bicep muscle lays on top, it is important to know that you likely have to release this muscle first before moving forward. The bicep muscle attaches all the way up into the shoulder and shoulder girdle. In addition, both the Bicep and Brachialis attach to the forearm area and thus, it will benefit you to release both areas above and below.
To actually release the Brachialis, be sure to push the Bicep out of the way so that you may get to the Brahcials muscle. In addition, you will want to make sure you work on both the lateral and medial aspects but you may notice that one side of the muscle is more tense, tender, and stiff. Continue to work that area out. To continue releasing this muscle, you need to start in the flexed state, then go to the lengthened state of the muscle by extending it. To add some additional stretch to (fascial stretch) at the end of the movement you will want to extend the wrist. This will draw the tension downward and while you maintain your tension and contact, it will help to release both muscles respectively to each other.
Many people having these issues will be found in those who do a lot of elbow flexion, extension, shoulder movements, and forearm movements. You can and will often find this in someone who does a lot of lifting, elbow flexion, push-ups, etc.
