Which Area Feels the Tightest: Shoulders, Hips, or Low Back?
Everyone has that one area that always feels tight — no matter how much they stretch it.
For most people, it’s one of these:
• Shoulders
• Hips
• Low back
Each of these areas plays a major role in how your body moves. When one is restricted, everything else has to compensate.
Question for you:
Which one is your trouble spot: shoulders, hips, or low back?

If you want help improving mobility in that area, I’d be happy to take a look.

Inside My Movement Assessment Process
Before I work on any client, I start with a movement assessment.
Why?
Because pain rarely comes from the area where you feel it.
A shoulder issue might start in the thoracic spine.
Hip tightness might come from weak glutes.
Low-back pain might be a mobility problem in disguise.
During an assessment, I look at:
• Joint mobility
• Muscle tension patterns
• Movement quality
• Compensation habits
• Functional strength
This helps me identify the root cause of your pain so we can create a plan that actually works — not just a temporary fix.
Question for you:
Have you ever had a movement assessment before?

If you’re curious about what’s limiting your movement, let’s schedule an assessment.

Why Mobility Matters More Than Stretching
Most people think tight muscles mean they need more stretching.
But here’s the truth: stretching alone doesn’t fix mobility problems.
Mobility is about how well a joint moves through its full range — not just how far a muscle can stretch. When mobility is limited, your body compensates, and that’s when pain, stiffness, and overuse injuries show up.
At Health Performance Plus, I focus on improving mobility through a combination of orthopedic massage, joint-specific work, and movement-based therapy. When you restore mobility, everything else improves — strength, flexibility, and overall performance.

Question for you:
What area of your body feels the most restricted right now?

If mobility is holding you back, I can help you move better with a personalized mobility plan.

Why Orthopedic Massage Is Different From Spa Massage

A lot of people hear “massage” and think relaxation, dim lights, and soft music.
But orthopedic massage is a completely different approach.
It’s clinical.
It’s targeted.
It’s designed to solve problems — not just help you unwind.
At Health Performance Plus, I assess movement patterns, identify restrictions, and work directly with the tissues contributing to pain or limited mobility. Every session has a purpose: reduce pain, restore function, and help you move better in your daily life or sport.
If you’ve tried traditional massage and didn’t get long‑term results, it’s not your fault — you simply needed a different approach.
Question for you:
Have you ever tried a clinical or therapeutic style of massage?

If you want results that go beyond relaxation, let’s talk about what orthopedic massage can do for you.

Why Your Low Back Stays Tight (And What Actually Helps)
If your low back feels tight every morning — or every time you stand up — you’re not alone. Most people assume the problem is the low back itself. But in reality, tightness often comes from restricted hips, weak glutes, or limited core stability.
When the hips don’t move well, the low back tries to do the job for them.
And that compensation creates tension, stiffness, and eventually pain.
In my clinical work at Health Performance Plus, I focus on identifying the root cause of low‑back tightness — not just treating the symptoms. Orthopedic massage, targeted mobility work, and movement‑based therapy can dramatically improve how your back feels and functions.

Question for you:
What time of day does your low back feel the tightest?

If low‑back tightness keeps coming back, I can help you get lasting relief. Send me a message to schedule a mobility assessment.
