LIKE your Low Back & DE-FRIEND Pain and Dysfunction
The tissues are only going to get worse the longer you take to mobilze them and overlook the "cause" of the problem. It may be caused by a functional leg length discrepency because of fallen arches in the foot, short rectus femoris/psoas or even poor muscle activation in the gluteals, all of which will lead to unbalanced lumbopelvic musculature...most likely a tight and pissed off quadratus lumborum:
Try this jumpstretch band mobility technique to treat the low back SYMPTOM and then find a soft-tissue therapist to evaluate, identify and then develop a treatment plan to address the CAUSE.

IASTM treatment for pain and muscle tightness in crossfit athlete
Here is a great example of how Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization can address a pain or dysfunction for an athlete and have them back in action in a matter of minutes. Pretty remarkable if you ask me. Scar tissue, adhesions and lesions are not our friends... don't let them slow you down! Visit your performance based soft tissue therapist, who truly understands your sport, to get you healthy and back in the game.

ROCKTAPE...live pain free and go stronger, longer
Maybe you are living with persistent pain or discomfort. Maybe you are having trouble just moving. Or maybe you have an athletic event, race or competition approaching and fear that you may lack the strength, endurance or power to have your best performance and avoid injury. When fatigue sets in, body mechanics in any sporting event or even life will diminish quickly. This makes you more susceptible to decreased power, performance and even injury. ROCKTAPE can help with this problem but offering kinesthetic awareness to taped muscles and fascia allowing an athlete or patient increase contractile potential by the taped structure.
ROCKTAPE offers the therapist a new option for injury rehab for a patient. Best used in conjunction with soft tissue and massage manipulations, the patient can get the benefit of fascial support and stretch for up to 5 days because the tape can stay on that long even under clothes and after showers. ROCKTAPE differs from traditional Kinesiotaping in that they train their certified RocDocs to tape not only muscles but movements as well. Understanding human movements and addressing the fascial lines is important for the practitioner when applying the tape.
Fascia can be described by using and orange as an example. The rind represents the human skin...and the wedges represent the muscle...the white film surrounding the wedges and the rest of the center represents the fascia. Fascia surrounds every muscle, bone, organ, nerve and vessel in the body from head to toe. ROCKTAPE has the ability to change the fascia by providing a consistent, light stretch and lift to the skin and the underlying tissue and fascia. This stretching and lifting can have a profound effect on the body's ability to reduce fatigue, inflammation and swelling as well as provide support and increase blood flow to the tissues to aid in rehabilitation.
Overall ROCKTAPE is effectively backed by scientific research for rehabilitation and performance. It should be considered as a treatment option for any competitive athlete, weekend warrior, CrossFitter, triathlete/runner/cyclist, golfer etc.. or average joe living with pain or discomfort. ROCKTAPE is not a miracle but it's darn close!
