Massage Tutorial: THE HAMMIES!!

The hamstrings are some of the TIGHTEST, and therefore MOST DIFFICULT, muscles to work. In this video I offer new and effective techniques to help LENGTHEN and FREE UP the hamstrings and the ropey tendons that accompany them!

Hi Allison. Just a note of gratitude. I've been working with a client bi-monthly for two years and today she remarked: 'I'm not sure what you did but it was unexpectedly fantastic and unlike any other session.' I utilized your healing balms 'Sore Loser' and 'For the Smell of it' which directed phenomenal results! !! Soooooo grateful for you! Keep elevating because we need more therapists of your caliber in the field.

[@RebelMassage]

I love this!! Thanks for the shout out. And keep being amazing at what you do!

Thank you so much! I am currently in massage school, and THIS is deeply beneficial. I LOVE watching the painting anatomy + then the following video. We speak a similar language and you have a true gift at teaching. WITH GRATITUDE!!!

@Alan Barlow me too😊😊

[@cadenzachambermusic7065]

I tried it and it worked like magic. No.4 position for the win!!! thank you for this, I knew there has to be an easy way to reach the origin. this saves a lot of effort for me and less pain for the patient.

[@clevernickname8095]

Ugh these videos are life for me - I'm an athlete so I'm sore a lot and I love watching these videos on rougher days. It's weird, I get this sense of relief even though I'm just watching

[@casons.170]

Let me help you if you need a great massage

[@pizanluv4ufranky]

I get it!! I was thinking the same thing!!

[@gchulack]

Totally get it. There are many times I feel so relaxed after massaging someone it's as if they worked on me.

I have thick, muscular & tight hamstrings and it's *so hard* find a massage therapist who properly manipulates these muscles People are very basic when it comes to the lower body & it is very frustrating I love your technique & how you take your time I'm a licensed massage therapist myself ❤❤❤❤💆🏾‍♀️💆🏾‍♀️💆🏾‍♀️💆🏾‍♀️

[@jpamarilis]

I total understand! My husband always telling me the same problem cause of his muscular body. .

[@user-id9qh6yl5s]

As a new therapist you are a gold mine of knowledge. Thank you so much for sharing. You are awesome!

[@dianav5717]

Wow! I’m amazed at the variety of techniques and tools we have to make our clients bodies better, you are the BOMB 💣!!! Thanks for sharing your gift!!! I can watch you all day …this is the 3rd video I watched in a row!!!❤❤❤

[@shabanaashraf4693]

Thank you so much you explain what you are doing in detail and your voice is also so calm and collected. Very much appreciated this video as someone who is in a lot of pain in this area. Bless you 👍🏽

[@jaelgueryan7936]

J'adore .... Je suis française et je ne comprends pas les commentaires de la vidéo, mais vraiment ce n'est pas nécessaire car la vidéo et vos techniques sont claires et efficaces. Je suis massothérapeute professionnelle et vos vidéos sont sensationnelles. Merci beaucoup ! Je me suis abonnée . Encore Bravo !

[@bodyworksdwnyc]

Love how you are showing ways to get into the hamstrings in supine position....which is one of my favorite ways to get into them as you can really relate the release of the muscle to various positions of the femur in the hip socket. We just put out a new video showing myofascial release techniques in prone position which makes a great follow up to this one!

[@juanperdomo5730]

As a therapist I value your videos so much, keep up the good work.

[@marcellawijnhoff7431]

Thank you, you are so inspiring to me, I'm learning and adapting techniques from your video into my own massage power of touch, keep up the good work! Love from Berlin !

[@LindyKing]

I love your leg work! Sometime could you share your draping techniques to keep our clients safe when practicing work on the hamstrings, around ischial tuberosities and glutes? Many thanks for sharing with us!

[@steelcrazy23]

This is such an in depth video full of amazing techniques!

[@mbecmassage7632]

I have been doing body work for 18 years. I am loving your videos. They are very informative, refreshing, and easy to follow.

[@olgaliza]

Awesome techniques, I can't wait to start using them at my practice. I will definitely share with my colleagues. Thank you🤗🤗

[@zavioncarter2468]

[@chantalthibodeau16]

i love your videos. Love learning new techniques to introduce in my practice. Keep them coming!

[@alohaleslie9407]

Aloha Allison, I'm revisiting your tutorials. After 30 years of massage, it's always good to be reminded of basics and add new techniques. What I love about your videos is your precise explanations as to not only what you are doing, but your intentions and how you want the tissues to respond. So powerful! Thanks again!! :)

[@LondonKLuv]

I am a LMT and can't wait to incorporate some your techniques.

[@tylerjones4812]

Awesome professional video, you clearly know what you're talking about. I'm not expert in the field of massage therapy but as an athlete I would LOVE to have this done to me. I got pleasure just by watching this!

[@מעייןאשד]

Thank you Allison, for your Hollywood-Grade videos (: ! Informative, relevan, visual and sound minimal, clean, and absolutely pleasant so no distractions but only teaching happens. From the first minute, the quality and value were obvious to me and you went straight in my watch list. Also put a minute to look for your name to thank you with it (: In our profession, the certificate and knowledge are just some of the factors, but you cannot buy the finest factors of it, because they are who WE actually are. You can, however, develop and be inspired by those who share, get more confidence in what you do etc. So thank you for sharing your talent and inspiring me and all the others. thank you for releasing the videos free. Like people here wrote, they not only teach, but also bring confidence between therapist and patient, which is so important, specifically in working on areas discussed in this video. I am certain this contributes to promoting health around the world. Thank you from Israel for making those great videos. תודה על הסרטונים המלמדים ומעוררי ההשראה. מלמדים על מתח בהאמסטרינגס ושאר שרירי הירך, איך לטפל בהם ואיך הם עשויים ליצור מתח גם בברך, ועוד. סרטון מצויין תודה Maayan.

[@rolfhymiguel4580]

Awesome! I like your videos & your voice.it's very clear..It's an additional knowledge for us who love to watch massage techniques just like me.been working for 5 years here in Phil as an LMT and still wants to learn more and more since there's a lot to learn about massage. Thank you so much! Thumbs up for you. :)

[@LauraVictor-w9b]

Please say that you have on line CE classes, or that you are considering touring different regions with courses. Ive spent far too much time and money for classes that offer nothing new. You are a brilliant therapist and educator. My clients all know your website and have benefitted greatly from your techniques which I have introduced them too!
