words wont describe how thankful I am for finding your channel couple years ago and being able to address some of my long-term problems with all the knowledge and exercises you share. gods work James!
Dr. James! You're truly a blessing! Every single video of yours has been super-informative and has personally helped me find answers for various issues I've faced while working out. Thanks a million and keep this going! The best fitness channel on RU-vid
This is the best resource for QL pain and recovery. Great explanation and I love the modest stretching approach and reathing exercises! Great rehab plan! Thank you Dr James !
I love the AI of RU-vid. It always reads my mind and gives me what I need. Thank you for these exercises. They really help James. I hope they can help me with my reflux too.
Been to a lot of sites but none worked as well as what you had me follow along with you today. Thank you James, thank you very much. My lower back feels better than it has for a very long time.
I love the exercises provided here! They worked really good compared to other exercises I've tried! I did feel a burning sensation after the routine but it definitely feels less achy and less stuck than before. Thank you James.
You can prevent quadratus lumborum pain by keeping your body as fit as possible. Stay in shape and consider seeing some type of movement therapist to keep your body aligned. Treat pain as soon as it begins so that it doesn’t get any worse.
Thus video us utterly phenomenal.. this is the best rehab channel on all of RU-vid. I’ve learned so much in the last few days. My QL has been jacked up for a year and this is what I’ve been looking for. James, you are incredible!!
This is incredible! I’ve had ongoing pain in my left QL for months and nothing has worked…..until now! After only three days of these stretches the pain has disappeared. Thank you so much!!
You are simply superb James. I have been suffering with left sided back pain all the way from my lower rib to foot because I fell down by twisting my left ankle in a ditch . I have been going through this pain since 3 years and no doctors could fix it unfortunately .. but now I got so much relief from these stretches . I got hope that I can get my life back … pain free life … thanks tons
Thank you! Merci! Gracias! Your video with follow along was the solution to my QL issue, which your explanation confirmed is the area of tightness and pain I’ve had. I’ve only tried this once now and already I feel a major improvement with the muscles in that entire region, but also as you mentioned, my nervous system feels more calm (I felt tense before this, it was a guitar string back there). RU-vid’s AI suggested this video. I will repeat this video for days to come and even create a short document about the steps within … and subscribe to your channel for more that I may need. This has saved me time from seeing a physiotherapist or chiropractor. (Thank you very much).
Pain in the quadratus lumborum can be due to overuse, stress, and strain. Sometimes muscles cause pain and stiffness when they’re weak or too tight. Activities such as sitting for long periods of time can reduce blood flow to an area, especially in the QL and surrounding areas. Pain can also result from repetitive motions and weak back muscles, which lead to poor posture. All of these factors can make you twist, bend, or lift improperly, which creates more tension. It can also lead to your QL becoming too tight if it has to overcompensate to stabilize your spine and pelvis. Pain in this area can also be due to accidents and unequal leg lengths.
For the past 3 years I've been going to my physio therapist every year for a few months so she could fix my QL again. Thanks to this video I can now fix my QL by myself and hopefully keep it healthy. Thank you SO much.
Thank you Doctor for your video exercise. I have pain at my back and side on my left. I thought it was lower back pain. I tried several lower back exercise it does not work. so I visited a Sports Masseur. I have been diagnosed to have problem with muscle at the quadratus lumborum at the insertion (to the ribs) and muscle erector spine is swollen and tight. I found your exercise, and want to try it out. Making today as day 1 of your exercise. Thanks James
