<p>I've recently compiled a brief article on my approach to interosseous membrane of the forearm for people with arm pain. I am wondering if anyone else has treatment approaches to the IOM?</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thanks</p>

Eventually I will gather all the responses to the polls I have added for discussion for current and future massage therapists to view. I think it's aways a good idea to know someone's opinion, to offer a different (or similar) point of view.<br />

I have a few, but I really enjoy skin rolling, either when doing a strictly myofascial massage or when I incorporate it in my swedish massage. I usually perform it towards the end of the session or body part that is being addressed. Personally I feel it helps remove any remaining restrictions or adhesions. I have also asked my clients how this technique feels and have gotten a good response.<br />

Thanks and have a great week! Someone posted a question about foot pain last week and a few of our staff, alumni and CE providers responded.tag:massageprofessionals.com,2009-08-05:2887274:Topic:113212009-08-05T19:44:39.294ZASIS Massage Educationhttps://massageprofessionals.com/profile/ASISMassageEducation
The question, now deleted by the original person that asked the question, was <i>“What is the best modality for foot pain? Foot pain can exist in many areas, plantar surface, dorsal surface, deep, superficial, and can be caused by multiple factors. Which modality would you use to alleviate conditions of the feet?”</i><br />

Here are a few responses...<br />

To alleviate general conditions of the feet I would first asses the condition through postural & movement assessment to see the stress and strains through out the foot and accompanying structures. Then I would utilize myofascial techniques to lengthen tissues, and general rehabilitation massage techniques including range of motion to free up the many joints of the foot, deep tissue to the thigh, calf and foot for increased circulation and general mobility of the surrounding tissues, and isolate and stretch. When applying many of these techniques I would enhance the efficiency of the tissue manipulation by having the client become an active participant in their session with specific range of motion to help open the tissues. I would then educate the client through my alignment awareness exercises, yoga therapy and other strengthening and stretching techniques which areas of their leg, foot, and other areas need strengthening and which need specific stretching to maintain a more efficient alignment and provide a long term change. I would then suggest other self care that would include cryo therapy, and self massage with tools such as tennis balls depending on the main area of pain. Other modalities that would be useful may include shiatsu, neuromuscular techniques and craniosacral therapy.
