Going through my own back pain issue in the last few years and I've learnt a lot. You've got fantastic knowledge and you explain it well. Really appreciate it mate, thank you
Thank you soo much for your videos! I have implemented these techniques on clients with great results! Learning more in depth about the muscles too! thank you!
John, could you make a video on Treatment Protocol for Iliosacral Dysfunctions ( from your book Pelvis and SI joint) and Symphysis Pubis treatment from the book as well.
Sir, I have a 63 yr/old male in a normal gait, his right knee raises quickly and abruptly. When I inquired. It's a problem my doctors haven't diagnosed. With unknown etiology, denial of injury, denial of any known cause. I'm a licensed nurse and my guess would be hip flexor? In this video you've address if a condition exists while working through your assessment of the gentleman's left hip. A comment made was might be "arthritic hip joint"? I would like to guide my friend back to his orthopedic physician with a "possible cause"? Please. Yes I realize it's similar to me asking you to asses with fragmented symptom of a man's gait. It reminded me as a young boy I'd have a propeller controlled by a rubber band. If the rubber band it too tight? Is the hip flexor that or other etiology that takes place to move right leg forward in his gait, it has been three years since first symptoms. Retired bus driver. However he used to ride bicycle for very long distances in his 30's, 40's and 50's he is 63. Thank you if you can or can't help. Thank you for your videos! You've helped me! Thank you!
John - as a Myotherapist I am struggling to find a soft tissue technique to treat extremely tight mid upper Tx due to so many people sitting at laptops during covid lockdown here (Victoria Australia). Do you have any videos to help with this? 🙌🙌🙌
Try treating the Pec's they often create a tug of war between the upper traps. This allows the scapulas to naturally retract and you will often find hypertonicity in the traps naturally decreases.
@@chadfriel2068 Amen brother! 100% true! + Subscap+Biceps actually +anything that crosses, passes or attaches to the scapula at some point. Scapula causes upper traps to tense up. Release all that I mentioned. You will be blown! I guarantee!!!
This was very informative. Last December my piriformis muscle bothered me. The pain was so unbearable I couldn’t even walk and I thought I would never walk again. I was only 39 years old and spent a month in a rehabilitation hospital. I never cried so much in life thinking that I would be in a wheelchair or walker for the rest of my life. Thankfully months later it “healed”. I put quotation marks because I can still feel it but no pain. It scares me that it will happen again. I wish I had this while I was in the hospital. I never received treatment like this.
Hey John, you may not offer this in your course or videos, in your practice if you’re dealing with an F.A.I hip pathology, have you used the hip decompaction maneuver to centralize the joint and inhibit the piriformis in this way? I have a 70 year old female, who’ve I’ve been treating this condition in a maintenance mode for about 5 years! I’d like to apply your technique ( and I have) but it doesn’t seem to change gait? She is challenged by not being able to walk past 10 minutes for the past 6 months. She expresses pain emanating from her right gluteal area, and the left hip has the FAI? I’d like to take your course with the hip/ pelvis if it will give me the discernment of what to keep regulated? Before, my hip decompactions did the trick, before the 6 month mark, now not so much? Should we get another MRI,on both hips to see if the arthritic changes have progressed? Or if the right hip has any degenerative changes? Sorry for the long message, but if you recommend that If I take your course, and it will help my patient, then I will! Cheers Mate, Much obliged, Jean LaFleur- Rkin, CAT(c), CSCS
Sorry for the delay as only check messages from time to time...try my online hip course as no doubt will help your patient and future patients, regards JG
Dr, I get tremendous pain when I stand up from laying position, in my right hip, to buttock, the sensation reachs tell leg. It jus cant bear weight, like something is squeezing, grinding or stabbing inside. It subsides if I sit or lay down, but i cant put weight on that right hip/ leg. It starts sometimes i feel from right illiac crest, and upper buttock, hips and down buttocks. This pain is not when I sleep for 8 hours or 2 house and wake up. It's always after I finish chores and lay down, and have to get up in 5 mins or half an hour. Also I get radiating pain in hip and side buttocks when i sleep on my both side. Could u please help me and advise me what to do or what this can be. Orthopedics jus give Nsaids and physiotherapy. Past 2 years I am sufferring
@@JohnGibbons I'm from India.😊. Staying in UAE. However would you hve an idea on what it could be. I do have disc buldge wih mild impingement at l4 / l5 level as per MRI. Do u think that could be the reason
Tried these techniques today on a client and most definitely helped after some thorough warming masage, as was new client. As always, John (Yannakis, Yann, Yannis) is a pleasure and always referring to your 📚 .
When I try to bend back my leg especially while I am laying on my chest.... I feel a very bad pain at the backside of my thighs ( may be on the hamstring), it cause a pain and prevent me from walking for about 3 to 5 minuteseachtime. Any advice please? Thanks Thanks

Amezing
Inhibited by tight psoas. See it all the time. All the sitting. Release the psoas and the glute will strengthen immediately.
Not always but a good plan, regards JG
I strongly recomend his curses and books to massage therapists.
