Psoas muscle: understanding, release and integrate them to the healthy function

To understand your psoas muscles means understanding what they do as well, and the symptoms because they unhealthy (too tight).

Psoas muscle

Whatever your psoas muscles

In normal mode, your psoas muscles keep your sincerity in it, affects the spine and balance while standing, and your movements during bending, twisting, walking and running. Your psoas muscles are core stabilizers.

tight psoas muscles show that pain in the groin, deep pelvic pain, and as a deep pain. orthostatic effects include a butt that sticks in the back and a protruding belly, if your pelvis exchange up-front position. In the movement is limited stride.

hamstrings tight to often develop in order to overcome the resistance of the extra air. Chronic constipation develops in some people, due to the effect of a psoas overactive neighboring nerve plexus regulates intestinal function.

For tight psoas muscles Output

Three basic approaches exist.

scope

massage / manipulation

training movement

First base: Muscle / movement Memory run the show. If your psoas muscles are tight your memory muscle / movement keep them that way. Muscle memory / motion from a deeper level of the nervous system than does any movement; conditioning.

Because muscle / movement develops memory by producing conditioning, stretching and manipulation at best temporary and partial results. You can not stretch or manipulate how conditioning; you can not stretch or manipulate muscle memory / motor. The pattern of motion and tension remembers back quickly. This idea explains your experience with therapy for tight psoas muscles.

Since muscle memory / motor is running the show, an approach that re-condition muscle / motor memory you need - and this is where comes the education movement.

education movement knows how to move or not maintaining good posture or maintain the position of the neutral spine. It is new, automatic climate movement. He lives at a depth where the / movement memory exists - the type of movement of memory involved in cycling, for example.

How have you learned to ride (or swim, for that matter)? Practical: the development of new movement patterns until they become a habit.

To develop a new control, and new movement is not only to release the muscles, but also their integration into the movement patterns with other movers and stabilizers of the body.

formation also includes movement awakening direction of movement and position. The strange thing is, if you do not have such a feeling or distorted, you do not know. There is an absence. When you develop such a feeling, you realize what you're missing.

Without the integration step, you psoas are likely to return to their stretched state. I will say more as we continue.

Understanding how the psoas muscles play in motion simplifies our approach to put things right. After such a statement, I will of course support. But first, I have to a certain base.Psoas Or psoas? The tendon psoas muscle and the common end point of the iliac muscles, which within the basin line so that the combination is mentioned, the iliopsoas muscle. For brevity, I use the term psoas muscle. Der muscles psoas trunk are our deepest core muscle.

When speaking of the core they usually have the muscle of the abdominal wall. But how is the heart? The heart of everything like the Earth or an apple is the middle part. The psoas muscle is a base such as membrane, square loins iliac and other muscles closest to the bone); The abdominal muscles are sleeved outside the core.

HOW main functions

The psoas muscle, is located more in the middle, the deeper muscles in the body to assist in the shape of the spine. By controlling the shape of the spine, they control our balance - how the center of gravity of our main segments - head, thorax (or chest), abdomen and legs - posters.

Tight disturbance psoas of the curvatures of the spine, shortening the spine, pelvis change the balance and cause unsightly (heavy, difficult, awkward thick) movement. To the extent that the curves of the spine are distorted, our coordination is distorted, and to that extent we are out of balance and our movement is non-economic / wasted effort.

MUSCLE COORDINATED / movement MEMORY muscles never work alone; they always work together with other muscles. What every muscle affects our entire balance. Other muscles have to compensate for the effects on the balance sheet by tightening or relaxation. Your brain controls this entire movement patterns and compensation with memories the movement muscle memory / motion. Because you are nervous and muscular system together as a whole, trying to change the movement and behavior of the tension tight psoas muscles without the motive of larger movement of which they are to operate part against the rest of the system memory (our) the way in which the movement will feel. That's why the methods of manipulation of muscles (eg, massage, myofascial release, stretching) modifies temporarily or slow in coming to produce - and why muscle release manipulation is painful: it works on sore, tight muscles directly against the packaging of the entire system movement, wherein the change of state again.

ACVITITY AND REST: coordination and muscle tone

The term "tone" refers to the level of muscle tone: complete rest means zero muscle tone; means complete activation maximum muscle tension. Some people believe that over the field, the better; others believe that complete relaxation is better. As you see, where concerns show, it is not; more better integrated and better integrated means more freedom to precisely adapt to changing circumstances - the freedom and balance.

Your brain coordinate movement and muscle tone; tone change when the position change in the movement. This is what is meant by flexibility. psoas muscles supple feel of the space, support, liberty, and the length of your body core. With golfers using the term open core. When the psoas muscles to do their job to stabilize the spine, they relieve the abdominal muscles some of these functions; your abs feeling of relaxation and breathing free. The Rolfers term use "free handle.Does the experience of healthy functioning of the system musular nuclear free and open sleeve. Open Heart / free bus is feeling the strain / length of the spine, flexibility and stability.

healthy function

Healthy in this direction to achieve the desired result with the least effort.Concerning the movement, the word gracious is applicable. Graceful movement of the market; clumsy movement profitable or awkward movement. Graceful movement maintains the effort; clumsy attempt to lose movement. an integration problem - the conservation movement must be coordinated and balanced.

psoas help regulate our position changes as we move from rest to activity and activity in the peace by changes in tone. They help to maintain balance and stability in these positions. They form the core of the movement of lying to sitting, from sitting to standing and standing for walking and running. If the tone is too high, they interfere with balance and stability if we are in different positions; their tone is almost never too low, and if so, usually indicates either neurological damage or need to learn the basic commands.

Changes in the position, follows the activity change to your muscle group of the muscular system.

Of Lying to sit and stand for walking and running

At rest or at rest, your psoas muscles do not work and have in mind - which means relaxed and comfortable.

Your psoas muscles connect your legs to your trunk. When you exercise you lie, they provide a sufficiently stable base to move to the upright position.

too tight to the psoas muscle pain in the groin or lower back (lumbopelvic) deep pain when changing position from lying to sitting. You can determine the experience of a muscle pull in the groin or end up with supply in your pond.

Sitting - psoas muscles connecting the pelvis and lower back and groin stabilize the balance in the front-rear direction and to some extent in a circular motion; brains match the tone for the exact amount of stability from the front to the back by gravity.

De Assis to Item - If you're sitting in the position should relax and lengthen your psoas muscles move are fully upright.

too tight groin muscles psoas that connect to your back, avoid reaching a balanced and upright.

When you are - you are well organized low enough to help you with your maturity, with a minimum of lumbar curve and high enough to stabilize the balance sheet. Through your psoas muscles, the brain controls the curves of your back (and balance) as you lean forward, sit, move from left to right and twists.

psoas muscle is tight enough when you get up; they pull down groin back, causing back pain or lumbopelvic, position "behind the pubic bone," and the curve of the lower back as well. Your belly sticks and stick your butt.

Standing near the Mar - If you enter the walk, be sure to bring your weight to manifest one foot to the other free leg; the psoas muscle on the side to relax and put on the side of the foot to help you move forward. In walking healthy, varied your psoas muscles, side by side, between your top and bottom as you walk or run.

You can maintain a permanent change in one group of muscles not do without the rest of your circulatory system because your normal brain patterns of movement between muscles (coordination model); a change, you must reorganize the entire structure. This kind of change does not occur "to decide otherwise move"; if you do, you can not easily we have this kind of attention in your movements; you need to do automatically, and there is a process listed below.
