The psoas gets worked so seldom on most people that slow is usually the best way to go. I’ve worked with some really sensitive ones and they never complained. It really doesn’t have to suck.

Some practitioners can get away with this, I’ve known a few. But, I’m more the gentle type and have found that working slowly and without pain works, so I don’t need to go deep like that, even if I’m sure it would work in a particular case. That’s great that it works so well for you.

It took several years for me to realize that the psoas can affect back an hip pain. Now I try it early with most clients that have this kind of pain. Really glad it worked for you.

While in massage …
While in massage school, my teacher noticed i was walking funny. he asked me if i was in pain. i told him i was about to die. right there in class, he put me on the table, put his thumb on my psoas and pushed. brought tears to my eyes. but DAMN! when he was done, the pain was GONE and i was CURED! I have since had clients with the same problem in my own massage practice and performed this maneuver on them. they left pain free.

That happens with youtube sometimes. It worked for me, try it again. If it still doesn’t work try with a different browser. If it still doesn’t work for you, post here again and I’ll give you an alternate site.

Hello,
When you have Anthony lift his right leg slightly to locate the psoas, is his leg straight or are his knees bent (as in the hook-lying position). It would be helpful to see his lower body position too.
Thanks!
Tamara

Thank you SO much …
Thank you SO much for this helpful demonstration! Tight psoas on my right side is contributing to very mild scoliosis. I was able to do this technique on myself just now, and felt immediate release AND relief! As a distance runner and a busy mom, this is invaluable – thanks again.

This is a trigger point technique, it goes beyond the fascia. One guy (there’s a comment above) was able to work his own.
I have a couple of great stretches for the psoas, and one that is assisted, but they aren’t in the book. I’ll see about making a video of the assisted one soon.

Are you “releasing” trigger points or fascia? Do you have any active or passive stretching included in the book?

Glad to be of help. It’s amazing how many lower back issues can be helped with a psoas release. Keep up the good work, good massage therapists are often hard to find.

Thank you so much for this video. I am a massage therapy student (in my clinical internship now) and just worked on my mom’s iliopsoas. She was amazed that I “fixed” her after only ten minutes. As an afterthought I decided to look up some stretching and exercise techniques for her and found your video.
