🙌 Pain/injury treatment for tight erector spinae and limited lumbar flexion & rotation

💥 Tight back? It might be your erector spinae working overtime 💥
These powerful muscles run the full length of your spine — from your lower back (lumbar) all the way up to your upper back (thoracic) — keeping you upright, stable, and supported.

When they tighten up, you might feel:
⚡️ A dull ache or stiffness in the lower or mid-back
⚡️ Tension climbing into the upper back and shoulders
⚡️ Reduced ability to twist or bend comfortable
⚡️ Poor posture — that “arched lower back, rounded shoulders” combo
⚡️ Headaches or neck strain from tension pulling upward

In this session, I’m using:
🔹 Cupping therapy to decompress fascia and increase blood flow
🔹 Deep tissue massage to release stubborn muscular tension
🔹 Fascia scraping (IASTM) for mobility and tissue glide, increase blood flow and loosen fascia
🔹 Targeted stretching + spinal flexion & rotation to restore movement through the full spine

Also assessed his lumbar range of motion before and after the session, to compare the difference and see progress

👉 Movements like lumbar flexion (gentle forward bends) and controlled twists help lengthen the erector spinae and keep the spine moving fluidly. These motions counteract the chronic extension and tightness that build up from sitting, heavy lifting, or poor posture.

💡Other muscles worked 💡
Surrounding muscles such as lower back, upper glutes and hamstrings.
Why?
Because these muscles work together to support the back.

✨ Your spine thrives on movement — keep it mobile, not immobile. 💪
Book your next session to keep your back moving how it should.

🫵YOU should be strength training in between sessions. I will tell you why.

💪 As a sports massage therapist, I don’t just believe in recovery — I believe in building strength too.

Massage helps release tight muscles, improve circulation, and speed up recovery… but what you do between sessions is just as important.

🏋️‍♂️ Weight training keeps your muscles strong, joints supported, and reduces your risk of injury. When paired with regular massage, it’s the perfect balance: recover well, move better, and perform stronger.

👉 Think of massage as hitting the reset button — and strength training as upgrading your system. Together, they keep your body at its best.

Massage therapy holds short term benefits, however you will need to continue your own rehab to gain full function over the long term.

How are you moving today?
Do you workout in between sessions or do you feel massage is enough?

❓What is myofascial/dry cupping?
Small suction cups are placed on the skin, and a vacuum is created inside them to draw the skin and underlying tissue upward. This creates space in between the fascia & the muscles and increases blood flow to the area.

The cups are usually left in place for 5 to 15 minutes, and no incisions are made, so it’s called “dry” cupping. Afterward, you may notice temporary red or purple marks where the cups were
In fact, many celebrities on the red carpet and athletes are seen with these marks on their back. It is a traditional therapy which is currently very popular in the health industry.

❓Is it invasive? Does it hurt?
It is non invasive, unlike wet cupping which draws blood out. It is a safe and effective treatment.. and hurts much less then that manual massage believe it or not ! Most people would say cupping is painless. It looks worse than it feels.

❓What is the purpose?

✅ Pain relief & muscle tension (especially back, shoulder and leg pain)

✅ Maintenance - for optimum health, improved circulation and bodily functions

✅ Restores mobility -as it loosens the tissues, aiding in fascia restrictions

✅ Healing and recovery- after a workout, sporting session, injury management

❓What does a cupping session look like?
We combine cupping with our sports massages at a slightly higher additional value , so you get 2 in 1. The deep massage for compression, and the suction cups for lifting. Therefore resulting as the perfect duo.
However if you opt for our pain specific treatment, cupping is sometimes included as part of the treatment plan, but isn't the main focus.
