Psoas

Hi :)

You know I'm always constantly whinging about my body hating me and trying to get a better understand of why. This article explained it pretty well though and even explains how the same muscle group might be responsible for different symptoms in other people I know.

So anyway just in case it helps clarify reasons for anyone elses niggling pain or tightness (seems to effect most body parts) - here's the link:


The Psoas Muscle and Back Pain on Squidoo

I can't believe it's taken me this long to find this - I've been googling topics related to back pain etc for centuries now!

Funny that Sharla just finnished a machine that stretches it .

Let me know when it's for sale - or if you need any guinea pigs :)

So Scrap when are you going to sell me one of your Psoas stretching thingys?

A friend of mine now also blames her Psoas for some chronic hip pain, sciatica and long term plantar fascia issues she has.

We're on a Psoas stretching mission now! :) (I know that sounded geeky)

Im putting a stretch up for you. Dont laugth at the dust were doubling the size of our House the biulders are in and very good to I might add. The kitchen is that big were thinking of putting Dinner shows on in it ;D The kid demonstrating is a footballer Irish under 19 captain fucking useless only kidding. He wanted to do it just for you Sharla.

Just for the info, that I learnt while being a Fitness Instructor, is that you can strengthen the Psoas muscle significantly by doing straight-leg raises.

Thanks Scrap! :) That'll be Excellent of you and the Irish footballer :)

I wouldn't laugh at dust - I spend a good part of the wheat season covered in dirt ;D

Am looking foreward to it :)

Thanks for the tip too Lucky :)

Trying to figure how to get it on Im certainly not putting this on You Tube..

All good. I'd love to say I know how to do that but I don't - I'm sure someone like Chris maybe would know?
