Videos of Highly Effective
Myofascial Release Strokes

Video Directory

1. Romboids and Trapezius Press very firmly and you will also do cross fiber work on the Posterior, Superior Serratus and the erectors muscles, Longissimus and Iliocostalis. » return to directory

2. Carpal Decompression This stroke is useful as a finish to working on carpal tunnel syndrome and for post surgical rehab when the wrist or the forearm has been casted. » return to directory

3. Forearm Interosseous This stroke is useful for carpal tunnel syndrome and for post surgical rehab when the forearm or the wrist has been casted. » return to directory

4. Tibialis Posterior Stroke I've found this stroke surprisingly useful for working with troublesome knees. » return to directory

5. Terres Minor Insertion Stroke #1 This stroke is a must for working on frozen shoulder. » return to directory

6. Anterior Hip Capsule Release A great stroke, learned in an Erik Dalton class, helping to righten posture and increase range and ease of motion in the hips. » return to directory

7. Levator Scapulae Insertion Stroke Once you've pushed the scapulae down to the end of the levator scapulae's full extension you can do a cross fiber stroke on the insertion. » return to directory

8. Terres Minor Insertion Stroke #2# The trigger points on the terres minor are unavoidably painful. You may want to warn your client. There is another example of a terres minor stroke with the client side-lying on this website that you might want to view as well. » return to directory

9. Trapezius and Latissimus Although the client in this video didn't feel any difference, this is a good stroke for getting the scapulae unstuck from the lattissimus dorsi and trapezius. » return to directory

10. Supraspinatus Insertion Stroke The supraspinatus and its insertion are usually the referral source of pain felt in the distal end of the deltoid. » return to directory

11. Glenohumeral Joint De-compression This is a good finishing stroke to other strokes done to relieve stiff or frozen shoulders. It opens up the joint itself in a way the other strokes can't. » return to directory

12. Anterior Longitudinal Ligament Stretch The anterior longitudinal ligament is always involved in an exaggerated kiphosis and this is a great way to treat it. You can also give this stretch to clients to do on their own. » return to directory

13. Pleural Glide Stroke This is a very effective way to help clients increase their inspiration capacity but it is contraindicated for the elderly with osteoporosis. » return to directory

14. Forearm Interosseus Membrane This is a good stroke to use when the client’s wrist or forearm has been broken and ROM and/or ease of motion is compromised. » return to directory

15. Clavicle Decompression This stroke can be painful so I use it when other strokes to relieve pain, numbness, and tingling down the arm don't work. It lifts the clavicle off the brachial plexus. » return to directory
