Description

With your client lying on their side and their arm
draped over your forearm, press your fingertips in to
the rhomboids near their origin which is on the spinous
processes of C7 to T5.

Bring your client’s arm down toward the floor as they
reach toward the floor. Stroke deeply with your fingertips
toward the insertion of the rhomboids along the medial
border of the scapula.

everybody needs stress relief and this is the cat's meow for getting to the levator scapulae as well as the rotatores/multifidus, and levator musculature of the spine. the release of compression on the vertebrae also reduces peripheral nerve compression.

I work at a rehab clinic for auto injury and slip and falls and all I have is 12 minutes to treat the patient. I've been looking for dvd's to train me on soft tissue injuries and this seems like the best one. Thank you for the demos and great idea of the monthly.
