TriggerPoint™ for Movement: Hip and Shoulder Mobility: Can your body move? Unfortunately most people can’t move where it matters the most. The hips and shoulders are designed to be some of the most mobile areas of the human movement system, but they often lock up creating a cycle of improper movement patterns and injuries. Normal functional activities, such as walking, require extension, flexion, and rotation of the hips and shoulders. If this can’t occur, the nervous system will alter the spine or the gait itself. Learn how to quickly identify these patterns and how to properly address these areas with the MB5 Massage Ball and self-myofascial release. This advanced approach is focused on creating the myofascial relationships necessary to optimize movement, preventing injury and prepping the body to perform at its best.
