  • You just need to have a good adjustable table and enough strength to be able to move the patient body. I will post another video treating one of my olympic lifter, you will see that it's not that hard. You need to pratice.

  • I've seen ART work, but this girl looks very uncomfortable throughout the entire process.

    I suggest that you work more with the nervous system - first release rectus abdominus, then internal obliques, external obliques, transverse abdominus through quiet, deep compressions. That way you can release the entire area without any pain and get longer lasting results. Make sure you hit the iliacus as well since it's the primary flexor of the hip.

  • Interesting technique, however I agree with bartink's comment that it's easy when it's a tiny body. As a bodyworker & therapist I'm 5'5" and ectomorph so don't always have the advantage for physical manipulations like this one, especially as many clients are taller than me and weigh more, so flinging arms or legs or flexing hips around isn't so straight forward. Have you any advice or comments?

  • Easy when its a tiny gymnast. Some huger clients would be difficult.
