Kristen Bos | Doctor of Physical Therapy on Instagram: "Struggling with stubborn tightness in your hip flexors??  I often see people craving a good hip flexor stretch or searching to find a device that gets deep enough into the hip to release the hip flexor.  However, these approaches only tend to offer short term relief as they are releasing a muscle that’s over working without addressing why that muscle started overworking in the first place!   The result? That tightness will most likely come right back.   For longer lasting relief it is much more effective to strengthen the muscles that help support the pelvis and hip that do the opposite movement of the hip flexor.   This will help provide the body with the strength to maintain a posture that keeps the front of the hip in a more length How To Strengthen Hip Muscles, Pulled Hip Flexor Muscle Relief, Yoga For Hip Flexors, Kristen Come Right Back, Hip Flexor Stretch For Pain, Hip Release Stretch, Stretches For Hip Flexors, Hip Stretches For Pain, Roller Stretches

Melissa Koehl on Instagram: "Hip flexor tightness is commonly blamed for posture issues, when in.

The hip flexor muscles (especially psoas major) are often blamed for pain postural “issues” like anterior pelvic tilt. 

This is a VERY outdated way of thinking, but you’ll still see it repeated over and over and over as if it’s a hard fact, when it actually is a much more “it depends situation”. 

If your hip flexors are actually short, stretching may feel good. 

If your nervous system is telling your hip flexors to be tight to protect your joints, some gentle dynamic stretching may also feel good. 

If these dynamic stretches help…..great!  Tight muscles could be playing a role and if that’s the case it’s VERY EASY to fix. 

But most of the time, especially if you’re hypermobile, tight mus Psoas Major, Exercises For Strength, Anterior Pelvic Tilt, Hip Flexor Exercises, Dynamic Stretching, Pelvic Tilt, Hip Flexor Stretch, Tight Hip Flexors, Hip Flexors

Dr. Tom Walters, DPT, OCS on Instagram: "💥𝐏𝐬𝐨𝐚𝐬 𝐀𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐲💥 —— 👉Can you really release the psoas muscle with massage techniques? Probably not. This video from @instituteofhumananatomy highlights just how deeply this muscle is located. - 🔎Psoas major is the deepest core muscle and the only muscle that attaches the trunk to the lower limb. It runs from the vertebrae and discs of the low back (T12-L5) down to the lesser trochanter on the inside of the femur. This unique configuration allows psoas to possess the dual role of spinal stabilizer and hip flexor. - 🧠If you are experiencing pain in the low back, sacroiliac joint region or hip, it is worth your time to determine whether or not addressing your hip flexors may help.
