@posturevideos I will make an appointment soon then. Thanks for the advice I really appreciate it.

Wow, it never occurred to me that I could just lean against the wall with the tennis ball, I've been rolling around on the floor with it underneath my back and actually ended up hurting myself because I wasn't being careful enough. This is way better, allows me more flexibility in how much pressure I apply to the trigger points.
Thanks a bunch!

@katja2skov Hello! Well if some of your joints are hypermobile, it is likely many are. This diagnosis is for your health care practitioner. My experience of those with hypermobility is the lax joints may sometimes cause much too much movement-overworking the muscles and joints and possibly thus leading to pain/discomfort. Be sure to see your doctor or chiropractor. Thanks for your questions!

@posturevideos well i do have hypermobility in my elbows, fingers and hips but is it supposed to hurt? because it really feels like my nerves are stuck or something :(
-
@katja2skov A diagnosis can not be made on line but you may be hypermobile. That is that your joints may be overly mobile. Your doctor or chiropractor can diagnose this.

Love your vids!!!!!!!!! Learning tons for myself and clients!

@dazzammm once or twice a day and continue even after your symptoms disappear (at least 3x a week to make sure the knots are not building up again)
-
How often should you do this?
-
I use a lacrosse ball
-
Nice and simple I like a lot!
-
Thank you! Yes I too have used a golf ball but bruising is more common. Tennis ball more friendly. Glad it's helpful!!

Great video. I'm a kick-boxer and with my constant punching of the bag I get a lots of knots throughout the year. I find the tennis ball fantastic for getting rid of knots in my shoulders and it save me loads of money that I used spend going to my physio. For deeper relief I have used a golf ball but the pain threshold is bit more intense but fantastic when that trigger point releases.
I started with a trigger point in my back now its spreading everywhere what can I do. self massage and the tennis ball barely provide temporary relief. I swear I get a new trigger point every few weeks please help!

@MrFrankTheRabbit Ouch that sounds uncomfortable! You need to find out why this is happening. Are you stressed out? Does your PC set up need altering? Are you not taking any breaks at work? Are you doing any stretching or exercise? It amazes me that 'people' (I'm sure not you lol) expect their body to perform as if still 20 years old without any exercise or good nutrition. Doesn't work! Please see a health care practitioner.

@posturevideos yeah it is =( the thing is I am only 18 and I am quite good at tolerating pain but I have seen my GP and he is convinced there is nothing wrong with me. The trigger points feel like wire under my skin and I can count at least 9. Really worried that they are going to continue spreading.

@MrFrankTheRabbit Don't worry trigger points don't spread but stress and poor posture can create more trigger points definitely. See a chiropractor this time. We know how to treat trigger points and help you with appropriate exercises. GPs aren't specialists in musculoskeletal problems. 18 is young. With the right help you will heal well and stay well!

Hello. So pleased you like the exercise. Yes please be careful, you can bruise the muscle if you push too hard. The floor is another great position to use. Thanks for your comment!
