Yesterday I did an ongoing De Quervain’s tenosynovitis treatment, muscle stripping through deep forearm extensors, holding a couple of trigger points and taking out the ice cup for some targeted anti inflammation hydrotherapy! Fun for me, relief for client 🤗

QL needs some attention!!!!

According to The Concise Book of Trigger Points, issues with the Quadratus Lumborum (a deep 'core' muscle responsible for side bending) can lead to symptoms such as:

- Renal tubular acidosis (accumulation of acid in the body)
- Scoliosis
- Mechanical low back pain.
- Hip and buttock pain
- Greater trochanteric pain (side of your hip)
- Pain when turning in bed
- Pain when standing upright
- Persistent deep lower backache at rest
- Pain on coughing and sneezing
- Pain on sexual in*******se

Holy moly? Seriously?

Actually I can agree with a number of these especially as it's an area I can have trouble with (if I sit too much or neglect my body/ movement).

Using Tennis balls is a great way to help with Trigger points. Just ask my clients who have a love/ hate relationship with them ;-)

How do we foster health, well-being and healing? Medicine has one approach, primarily using antibiotics, pharmaceuticals, and surgery to cure disease. Traditional types of medicine apply another approach, relying on herbs and other natural remedies to restore balance and activate the body’s own he...
