The shoulders are an area that many people find hard to relax. They attach the arms to the body, and if we stripped all the muscles away, we can see the arms are attached to the body at the collarbone, where it joins to the breast bone. The collarbone feeds back into the shoulder blades, and then down into the arms. To relax the shoulders, the spine has to be relaxed, and then the shoulders can find their way to the correct position. This can take some training as we usually hold our posture incorrectly, and so the shoulder blades rise up and forwards with tight upper trapezius and the muscles at the chest contracting. These postural issues can lead to discomfort and headaches. If you would like to remedy this, contact Chiroposture

The diaphragm is a dome shaped wall of muscle (innervated by cervical nerves C3-5) that lies at the bottom of the ribcage, separating the lungs and heart from the organs underneath ( liver, stomach, pancreas, spleen and intestines) and also providing a sphincter muscle at the top of the stomach (to help control things such as reflux).
It is the primary breathing muscle that contracts to suck air into the lungs, and then relaxes as we exhale. It moves together with the pelvic floor to provide abdominal support. When we control our breathing, we can exercise control over our (parasympathetic) chill out nervous system, and when we breathe long, slow breaths, we create a wave of movement through the viscera, essential for good health and circulation. If this wave is reduced through short shallow breaths, we have less oxygen travelling in our system which leads to fatigue.
So, through the diaphragm we can exercise conscious control over our breathing and nervous system, and then when we sleep, the diaphragm runs on automatic.
Learning to relax this muscle is an essential part of good health.

The pelvic floor is a firm, thick sheet of muscle stretched across the base of the pelvis, front to back from the p***s to the coccyx, and side to side between the SIT bones.

A number of muscles join together to form this important structure that works in with the diaphragm, and the deep core muscles of the back and abdomen. It also offers support to the bowel and bladder (and uterus).

Using this idea of core musculature, the control of the pelvic floor is essential for stability, and it allows other muscles that support our frame an opportunity to relax. The more we relax, the more energy we save and the more comfortable we are. Breathing and movement become easier, and so does concentration.

This forms part of the essence of standing meditation: how to engage the pelvic floor and relax as much as possible during our daily tasks.

Sciatica is an extremely painful condition that can affect the lower back, glutes, and all the way down the back of the leg. There can be a number of causes, including disc herniation, but the more common cause I have seen in clinic is from a tightening of the piriformis muscle which gets overworked and goes into spasm when the larger postural muscles get tired. When in spasm, the piriformis can pinch the sciatic nerve causing extreme pain. To alleviate this requires balancing the pelvis and posture, and then massage and gentle stretching. Understanding good posture and how to activate core muscles is essential to avoid these injuries.

I often treat the quadratus lumborum (QL) muscles which run along each side of the spine in the lower back. These provide stability and movement whilst protecting the lower back. They work in with the hip flexors and can be difficult to relax.
For healthy spinal function we want to have strength, length and relaxation in QL so that all the joints of the lower back can move freely and with good biomechanics.
Correct posture and core stability will help the lower back. Call Chiroposture for more information.

In clinic I am constantly trying to provide spinal stability and flexibility. One of the major muscles involved with this is the hip flexor. When this is tight, from too much sitting or over use, the lower back may get stiff and sore. It's good to lengthen and relax the hip flexor, and allow the lower back to relax. Treatment and exercise, especially standing meditation, can help address these issues. Please call for an appointment to find out more.
