this video is made possible by our loyal patreon supporters visit patreon.com psychetruth hi guys thank you for joining us today I'm going to be doing a a full anterior leg massage with focus on the quads so I'm going to go ahead and get started and I'm actually going to get started without oil and I'm going to go right in with some lighter compression so I'm going to use boths with my hands and I'm going to start up by the um anterior hip flexors and I'm going to start just working my way down with a lighter touch and I'm going to work my way up the center of the Quad quads [Music] and I might do this you know three times each time just spending a little bit longer and going a little bit deeper especially on the parts that feel more contracted so when I'm going in with these compressions I just gradually increase my pressure I don't just go right in let the muscles get used to more pressure and trying to do these compressions with um you know oil already on the leg would be harder so this time I'm going to you know widen my stance a little bit and start going a little bit deeper than [Music] before yeah have working my way up the [Music] middle you always want to be working with um as straight an arm as possible you don't want an exaggerated Bend in your elbows because you're going to put a lot of pressure on your own shoulders just making sure that you feel comfortable as you work I'm going to go ahead and grab my oil and just starting from the inside and working my way out even as I'm applying this oil I'm working as a whole unit I'm not just working with my hands they're really an extension of my core and whole body [Music] and finally I'm going to go ahead and work my way [Music] in with both hands in a soft fist position and I'm just going to start working my way up with a medium [Music] pressure and working my way out towards the hip and if the hand is in the way you can always just put your hand on your client's hand on their stomach and always just when in doubt if you're feeling discomfort in your own own back just widen your stance so always um just when you're doing you know any type of massage it's really important to work organically and stay tuned into what's what's going on with each body we're all different and I'm going to go ahead and start working my way in with just one hand working a little bit more in a little bit more [Music] detail so instead of just you know doing a broader Glide I'm kind of breaking that up into little little micro movements [Music] and I just find that it's a little bit more difficult to find a comfortable position as the therapist when working on the anterior leg and just a wider stance is kind of what's helped me the most so I'm going to go ahead and go in with a kneading technique that's really straightforward and pretty simple so I'm just going to start to rotate my hand and this is so healthy for these different quadricep mus can do a little bit of cross fiber [Music] work if you're starting to feel like you're not as stable you can always hold on to your wrist when you get to the outer part of that leg and just working my way up I find that this is more effective than um trying to do pet here I just I feel like you are a lot more in one place I think you know Petra size just requires a lot more energy and I'm not sure that it's more [Music] efficient but it feels really good it's a great technique to include as well and I'm going to go in with both hands the quadricep muscles are pretty big so I'm usually hesitant to do very much thumb work when working on them and I'm going to go in with my forearm so to work this top part of the leg I'm just going to go in with my right forearm [Music] and I want to actually work on the IT band a little bit so I'm going to make sure that there's some oil on the outer part of that leg and I'm going to start going in with my opposite for to and nice wide stance here just working my way up if your client is enjoying the deeper work but is feeling like it's a little too much you can use a distraction technique can gently rock your forearm feels really nice especially as you get closer to the IT band [Music] and finally I'm going to just go in starting to work my way into the IT band just slightly not going to do anything super deep and it can feel really nice to just offer a little bit of lengthening to these different muscles so you can just stabilize the muscle with one forearm and then massage with the other and I like to end how I started just to kind of tie it all up and I'm actually going to go ahead and just move to the opposite quad and I'm going to go ahead and start with this opposite side so just starting with these oiless compression so nice wide stance here and I'm just going to start by the hip and work my way down and ta had said that she was the gym and kind of felt some pain in these quadricep muscles so just kind of going in with a little bit of caution and working my way up so this is an opportunity for the muscles to the soft tissue to kind of adjust to the work and for me to get more familiar with what's happening on this side so going just a little bit deeper this time this kind of gives me a sense of what I need to be where I need to be spending most of my time during the session and just one more time down the leg and I'm going to really start to go in with a little bit more pressure just gradually increasing my pressure as I hold this is really healthy for the muscles if you start lighter and work your way in it's not something that you can visually see that well but you can certainly feel it when you're doing it and if you feel the muscle kind of start to fight you you're probably going a little too hard and I'm going to grab my oil and just starting from the inside working my way [Music] out if you try to press firmly on the way down it's just going to feel like a choppy movement so just nice light Glide down and I'm going to go in with my [Music] hands for some reason I find that it's most difficult to like have to practice proper body mechanics doing the anterior leg work so just as much as possible take care of your own posture as you're [Music] working and just try and keep your arms as straight as you can you might need to step away from the table a little bit you know your arms don't need to be like rigidly straight but not super bent either I'm going to start going in with just one hand being a little more detailed in my work so instead of like that long broad stroke I'm starting to do shorter movements with my [Music] hand just breaking up some of [Music] those FAL restrictions and if your client has a sensitive spot Maybe like go back and forth between different different quadricep muscles instead of just lingering on one too long can also kind of broaden the area that you're working with if there's a lot of sensitivity and generally when I'm doing this kneading technique you want to use your hand that's closest to the table so instead of reaching over it would be a lot harder so I'm just going to start to it can feel kind of funny at first when you're using your non-dominant hand and it can actually really help to like guide your hand with your dominant hand this is a really healthy thing to do for the [Music] muscles and again this isn't necessary I just really like how it feels and I feel more stable um and I just want to thank a few of our patrons I like to thank Brandy demit Hannah KY and Heather Carter thank you so much for your um support we really appreciate you guys and just wrapping things up here a nice broad actually need to do that forearm work so I'm going to go ahead and transition right into my left form to start and I I have noticed throughout the session that um ta's quad on the side is fairly sensitive so using a little bit less pressure than the other side and going in facing the table here and just starting to work my way put that office form using my whole body working as one unit as much as I can and I'm just going to make sure there's plenty of oil and working my way into the IT band just slightly and just ending how I started tying it all [Music] together and that is it for today thank you so much for joining us today guys I hope that you enjoyed today's video and I look forward to seeing you next time
