For another client with some major hip issues, I did some psoas/iliacus work and she said could feel it sooooooooo much in her hips - she said it was wonderful!!! Thanks again for the suggestions, can't wait to try the L5/S1 stuff with my other client!

<p>Sorry, but 'You' got there accidentally. Also it seems that link I tried to create didn't work. Just go to <a href="http://www.scienceofmassage.com" target="_blank">www.scienceofmassage.com</a> and click on March-April 2010 issue of JMS.</p>

<p>Do thorough muscle testing along the quads, TFL, Psoas, Iliacus, Gracilis, Sartorius, Gluteus Medius and even the Adductors. One or more of those are weak, and that's why the client can't balance the standing up movement. My bet is Rectus Femoris, Glute Medius and/or Sartorius.I would also look at testing the Y ligament of Bigalow, one of the internal ligaments holding the head of the femur into the acetabular joint.

<p>Do thorough muscle testing along the quads, TFL, Psoas, Iliacus, Gracilis, Sartorius, Gluteus Medius and even the Adductors. One or more of those are weak, and that's why the client can't balance the standing up movement. My bet is Rectus Femoris, Glute Medius and/or Sartorius.I would also look at testing the Y ligament of Bigalow, one of the internal ligaments holding the head of the femur into the acetabular joint. To test it, first find a strong arm muscle on the supine client. I typically use Deltoid. When muscle testing, remember to first meet the client's arm strength and only then lightly exceed it to test if it can withstand the increased pressure while holding its contraction. Once you've found a strong muscle, use one hand to grasp the anterior thigh and push it firmly up into the acetabulum. This is the joint challenge. Retest the Deltoid muscle to see if it remains strong during the acetabular challange. If the deltoid goes weak, then your client has a twist in the internal connective tissue/ligaments of the hip joint including a probable twist in the original tendon of the Rectus Femoris. Use your massage techniques to work those tissues, and you will need some good distal traction on the femur. Wasleski had a good technique for it. Also a chiropractor can reset that joint. I also teach a self fix "Hip Kick" developed by Camden Clay, DC that often fixes this problem, at least temporarily. The client basically kicks their leg using gravity and a modicum of force to stretch the hip joint. Inflammation in the joint is a contraindication. Take Bromelain tablets on an empty stomach to help inflammation clear.</p>

<p>Hmmm, thanks, Frank! She said her trainer mentioned something about one femur being longer than the other, but I'm not really sure how that would relate. I would imagine she has a pretty strong core with the amount of yoga and training she does, but that was also my first thought as well!</p>

<p>Just looked at some psoas and illiacus stretches...you might be on to something!!!</p>

It sounds as if it may be a neuromuscular miscommunication somewhere. But also on the side that seems to wobble or whatever, her psoas, illiacus or maybe even her core may be weak. It is really hard to tell without actually being there and doing a complete eval
