Thank you for this! I actually was doing this today - without knowing if it was a good thing. It just felt good. My hip felt sooo tight and so I took a ball and just did the same move you did. It's crazy how if you listen to your body, it will often tell you what it needs. Thanks for validating that I'm doing the right things! I'll do it again tomorrow!
This was so helpful for me. I tore my hip flexor a few months back, and as a retired dancer, I was completely aghast at the recovery time. This massage has definitely helped with easing the pain.
You train hard, you eat well…it should be enough to keep you in good health and physically and emotionally strong. Yet, there is a danger lurking in our bodies that's not only hidden from us… but which even doctors are failing to identify. It affects nearly everybody, no matter how active or sedentary you are, or how old or young you are. This problem affects not only our body but our whole well-being. nd when I tell you what it is, you'll be shocked, because it's tight hip flexors. In a moment, I'll reveal to you the 10 Key Moves you need to loosen your hip flexors and unlock the hidden power in your body. for more information, tinyurl.com/yyqsjmnh >
Wow I walk a lot so my psoas has been so tight it was driving me crazy I did this massage and absolutely 💯 feel soo much better! Thank you! Your video is the only one I could find like this
I miss being young and in shape. I’m 36 and 6ft 215. I am trying my ass off to get back to 185 after going through a lot of medical problems the last 5 years. My body is so tight, and my plantar fasciitis is hurting my ability to work out as hard. I’m going to try this and hip flexor stretches to help.
Thanks .. these deep hard to exercise properly muscles can cause debilitating pain for older people who worked sitting down behind a desk all their life .. thanks for these visuals that are finally helping me relieve some of my pain
Great demo! Serious cyclist who drives for a living here... after seeing this Im sure this is the root of my back pain and pelvic tilt that ive had to get corrective surgery for. I recently decided that I can't bike anymore. ll be getting a lacrosse ball asap! Since my last ride my back has been killing me and my hip has been popping when I turn around our change directions walking. Its been excruciating for the past 3 weeks now! other good tips?
I love your videos. Hard to find good videos like this. Just dont forget to mention any main arteries (pulsation) around hip flexor/asis for people who dont know 🤗 Keep making videos!
After months and months and therapist visits of really bad lower back pain, I did this once and the pain went down like 70%, still slight pain though, which I seem to have plateu'd. Anything else I could try?
Patrick Guerrisi Thanks Peter I'm so happy that this helped you share it to anyone that needs help. Try the hip flexor stretch. In this video. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CMJyuKylO2w.html
Thank you for this demonstrative video. I've been a runner for over 47 years. My injury resulted after running a half marathon road race 10 years ago (2012) and am having difficulty with complete recovery. I've been dealing with a painful right flexor for quite a while. Sometimes, I can't lift my right leg for walking due to right quad pain or right hip flexor pain. I've seen a physiatrist and have gone through a lot of physical therapy, but the injury returns. At the moment, I'm suffering with excruciating pain with my right hip flexor. The right quad doesn't hurt, but I'm unable to walk properly. I own a tennis ball and a larger rubber ball with sand inside. I'll attempt to incorporate your exercises using them.
Hi! Are there other stretch videos you can share for this? I find it difficult as I have polycystic ovaries, so leaning weight in that area is very painful. Thank you!
I know the muscle is there but the part where you describe where to place the ball is rushed through and not clear and I've tried with a ball but I'm not sure I'm even getting the right spot
You have the right idea. But it can also be a region of muscles causing the hip to tilt. I see this all the time w/my clients. It's common to have slightly tilted hips if your not stretching regularly or receiving therapeutic treatment. There is just always other factors like past sports injuries, lifestyle, work, etc
How many times a day would you recommend doing the hip massage with the ball? I don't want to over do it but I need some serious hardcore massage on my tight hips from years of a lower back problem and it's improved already! Many thanks
12 day post op for l5s1 microdiscectomy. I'm having an issue with upper thigh pain and do find the hips are tight,really tight since this surgery!(came out of OR with this) I have a hunch it's due to the positioning during procedure! Any suggestions on how to stretch the whole hip muscle group without using stress on the low back?
@@Activchiro okay....i fell while playing sports five years ago. Which lead to me having pains and reduce my movement around my hip. It really affected my sports, so i went to the hospital was given medication (cant remeber them) with anti - inflammation gel or so. My pain stoped but my sports is affected. If try dragging my knee to my chest i feel a pain and itch around my hip flexors. If i try lifting the thigh up it heavy and very difficult compared to my right leg. And also if play soccer i feel discomfort around that region. As at last 2yrs or so I started having muscle spasm at my left spine. Xrays have been done buh nothing visible at the hip.
I must be pretty lucky with the amount of work my hip flexors and psoas get from kicking and weight training they are never tight and always have full ROM. Cant say the same for tfl squatting makes that thing tight as!
Taner BEYAZGÜL try acupuncture! ive tried everything even nerve blocks and nothing has helped but acupuncture and i also get myfascia release cupping done at the same time. been suffering severely for 3 years now, been a game changer for me
The only exercise that works for any of your above listed issues is TRE tension/trauma release exercise which allows for involuntary tensions to flow out of the body. Very easy and powerful releases. It’s not going to be fixed w stretching, sorry.
Funny fact I get spasm in stomach after laughing so much 🤣🤣and it's more fun when me and my mom both end up having but still can't stop laughing wallah 😂
+Aidan Boyko It is not wise to put anything like this directly on that muscle. You may receive immediate relief, but can do damage. You need to properly find out what is the root of the pain and start there. Where the pain is is not always the problem.
Can this cause sciatica pain radiating through the hip and down the outer thigh? i find when my sciatica flares up, my inner thigh starts spasming. I also have very very tight hip flexorson that side
There are several things for ways to exercise back muscles Slowly build up to walking 3 miles daily Begin an anti-inflammatory diet Consider starting yoga lessons Lookup some online guides (I read these and the reasons they work from Fergs Pain Ease site )
I have spent months investigating relieving hip flexors pain naturally and found an awesome website at Fergs pain ease (google it if you're interested)
