    This is exactly where I feel the tightness in my back from time to time when I deadlift or do back extensions. I will try these stretches. Thank you!

      Yes, give them a try. You may even want to perform some of these stretches between sets of deadlifts. Then when you are done working out, spend time stretching out well.

    Appreciate your videos, especially when you address cause of problem and show anatomy. Keep up good work. And being older runner all sorts of problems with QL, hip flexors and likely iliopsoas. When is best time for fascial work, before or after run?

    • @OcraMedHealth
      @OcraMedHealth  Před 3 lety +1

      Perform most of your deep fascial release work after you run or on an off day.

    Great video, I will give these a try. I am an avid golfer and have been dealing with lower right back and glute pain for 3 years or better. I've tried local PT and chiro with no success. Any further suggestions/tips are greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Hi, great video. Is there a danger of hitting/aggravating the sciatic nerve if the fascial release is done wrong (if I have the ball on the wrong spot)? Thank you

    • @OcraMedHealth
      @OcraMedHealth  Před 4 lety +1

      Not so much with the QL. If you are working on the piriformis you need to be careful. Good luck!

  • @filipmekyska7932

    Hello Joe! I got a question... May the tightness of QL be a main issue that causes anterior pelvic tilt? I tried to strengthen core, glutes, tried to stretch hip flexors but it doesn't work as I thought so...

    • @OcraMedHealth
      @OcraMedHealth  Před 3 lety +3

      It may not be the main reason, but the tightness can definitely be part of the cause.

    I was throwing a ton of kicks at my kickboxing class after i didna bunch of roman char back extensions the night before. I feel supper tight on the right side of my upper butt and lower back. When i lean forward at the waist its super tight and painful on the right side, especially when im sittinv in the car.
    Do you think this is the ql? Or the psoas or glute?
    Its just on the right side

    • @OcraMedHealth
      @OcraMedHealth  Před 4 lety +1

      Hard to say without an actual exam. Give the stretches a try and see if it provides some relief. Good luck my friend!

    Hi, can QL tightness, and issues also cause hips problems and pain higher up?

    • @OcraMedHealth
      @OcraMedHealth  Před 3 lety

      Everything is connected. Tightness in the QL can create changes in our body mechanics leading to other problems.

    this can fake some sciatica simtons? i was doing right with workin in my glute mediun and perfirom, aswell for other excercies, but i felt i little tight in the upper part of this mussle, and started to feel some numbness in my legs when i am seat down in a twist position as well when i am in the bed but just when i sleep in one side, i feel in inthe upper leg in both sides (when i sleep over the other, this doesnt happen all the time)

    • @OcraMedHealth
      @OcraMedHealth  Před 4 lety +2

      Tightness in the QL can often be associated with low back pain. Sometimes a tight piriformis can create sciatica type symptoms.

    When even I do these stretches. O p ly ever feel a stretch in the back of my ribs and not my QL?....

    • @OcraMedHealth
      @OcraMedHealth  Před 3 lety

      The QL is attached to the T12 rib so that might explain it.

  • @omaredgarmaggiolo2072

    Can too much pressure on the HQ muscle with the ball be harmful?

    • @OcraMedHealth
      @OcraMedHealth  Před 3 lety

      Start off with light pressure and slowly build up. Good luck!

    I’ve always considered Chiropractors as the “modern day” snake oil salesmen. Cracking backs,making adjustments, etc. with no real science proving that it helps anything. This information is good and helpful though. Thx!

      Lol. I’ve been a chiropractor for over 27 years. I don’t need to copy anything from anyone. If u watch my videos, I provide a lot of original content that I have developed over the years. However, in regards to stretching a particular muscle, there are only so many ways u can stretch it. I’m sure who ever u are referring to, didn’t invent the stretches that I demonstrate. And I don’t pretend that I invented them either.
