Kneads for Health Massage Therapy

Tight back?! This is by far one of the most beastly and effective ways to stretch the Quadratus Lumborum (QL) in the lower back. This QL stretch can be held for... 2 minutes per side. You will get a stretch in numerous places, but the goal here is to feel a stretch deep in the side of the low back. Depending on the orientation of your hips and the position of your arms/legs, you may feel a stretch in these muscles as well: latismus dorsi, intercostal muscles between the ribs, external and internal obliques, tensor fascia latae/ileotibial band on the side of the hip/thigh, glutes, and peroneals on the side of the leg. Just about everyone can do this stretch to some degree. If you are very tight, don’t worry about getting as low as I do in the video. We have had hundreds of people, including myself, do this stretch with a disc injury and it definitely helps to relieve disc and sciatica symptoms. This QL stretch can also help to relieve joint (SI and Facet) and muscle pain in the low back. Like we always say, stretches are great and all, but to address the root cause of your pain and tightness, you must relearn your movement patterns. We will be talking about how to reduce your QL tightness in the next couple of weeks LOTS of QL videos. Artwork by Ashley Kay Written by Andrew Dettelbach Want more help from us?
