[@RebelMassage]

Thank you Ian!

[@michaelslay6622]

[@lolareddy5117]

I would like a complete sport massage course on all body parts.im learning so much already

[@brodygoalie]

Very interesting. You use the word pinched. I believe that is my problem. My Left greater trocantor is irritated/ inflamed. Lower back L5/ s1 I believe is also inflamed. Shooting pain. Hopefully a massage therapist near me will be able to help me. I am doing everything I can I can. Thank you

[@ismailibrahim1354]

Is this therapeutic massage?

[@johnnalandes2576]

Would love a body mechanics video. I have been a massage therapist for 15 years and its so very important to remember our bodies need to stay focused and not get lazy. Really appreciate you and your videos. Thank you.

[@catherinemann4814]

I've been one for 25 and I feel your pain lolol😅

[@caswellbecker1959]

90% of my clients have sciatica. I’m a sports massage therapist . I love your videos and I learn so Much from you

[@miguelgutierrez5525]

You have an Instagram page?

You are by far one of the best Massage/manual therapy educators out here.

[@florinelombard5673]

Thank you! You are doing amazing work by helping massage therapists all over the world! 🎉

[@kenlek869]

This is real therapy! She has great strength in her arms and hands, and fantastic understanding of anatomy. Thanks for this wonderful video.

[@drewbeedoobeedooooooo4821]

Most thorough and scientific sciatic video on KZbin

[@Psychoanalytical87]

Wow, you're amazing! I can see exactly where you're pressing and where the sciatic nerve is. This would be such a relief!

[@katmcarthur8288]

Yes! online CEUS. The classes or series I would be interested in include: Functional Anatomy, Neuromuscular Facilitation, Active Engagement Techniques, myofascial release, draping for some of these techniques to incorporate them into a relaxation massage when client may not be clothed. Also, you should come back and visit Colorado and do them in person sometime, such as at the AMTA or AMBP conferences. :)

[@nanceyupshaw7237]

I am the same with the functional anatomy and neuromuscular facilitation . All of this sounds wonderful .

[@mattharrell6880]

You will forever have my gratitude for making these videos. Using technical terms, you still break it down Barney style so the general public can understand not only the what but the WHY.

[@zaidquddus7013]

Hi Allison.... I hope all is well. I want you to know that I appreciate your videos, knowledge and techniques you teach. I definitely benefit from them greatly. With regards to CE classes, etc., I would love to find out more regarding orthopedic massage (assessment/testing and protocols for different common soft tissue dysfunction) as well as massage for things like hospice care, etc. Thank you again for all your effort with providing a platform for practitioners, students and general public to benefit from! Your work is amazing! May you have blessings in all you do! :)

[@mememe2223]

Amazing voice, music and together with the wonderful demonstration, as always.

[@pingboucher4767]

Ijust found your channel as an answer to years of prayers for pain relief. I was able to locate the impingements with precision and now know where to focus my attention. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and confident spirit. 🦅

[@erincastello5435]

as a new therapist i just want you to know how much i love your videos, and how grateful i am for you! i reference your channel ALL. THE. TIME. and i always get excited when i see something and think, “hey, i do that too!” haha. thanks for being! :)

[@boxsui4833]

any tips for starting massage school

[@KrisT12890]

I LOVE doing pin and stetch on pirformis and my clients do as well. Love these techniques

[@Clearwaters100]

Superb content. Your techniques and explanation of anatomy, combined with working collaboratively with the client is exemplary. Thank you so much.

[@tragerbarrie]

CEU classes would be great. This sciatica video is awesome and I would love a series that focused on assessing and treating other nerve pain patterns clients present. How to know when it's nerve pain, common nerve pain pathway/patterns, massage techniques, etc.

[@AJ-hi6kt]

Thank you awesome video. I’d love something (course/skill set) that puts all these techniques such as PNF, AET, MET, reciprocal inhibition together into a cohesive framework to use more effectively with clients 💜

[@mattharrell6880]

Then create one....;)

[@roainiabdjamal7533]

Where can get tis treatment massage?

Would love neck specific work and if you do it, reflexology. A series would amazing.

oh my goddess deeper anatomy and physiology stuff would be amazing love it

[@Muzikluvr724]

Great video. I’d love for you to work on my sciatic nerve. I can remember when I finally figured out what the problem was. That same year I went to The Body Human exhibit and looked for the model with all the nerves exposed. When I saw the size of it I was not surprised. It looked like a huge cable cord. No wonder it’s so hard to wrestle into submission.

[@ibritmelody]

Thank you so much for your tutorials, I’m going through a sciatica thing, it has been so painful and a therapist helped me out watching some spots of some tutorials once and even I’m thankful for the help in the main crisis of her by now I’m doing it myself and I feel so much comfort doing what your tutorials said with my daughters help and it’s helping a lot. Thank you so much!!! I would like to learn more!!!

[@taoist32]

You can get a correct diagnosis first. You may not have sciatica. But if you do, you can do some self massage as well. Use a a tennis ball or racquetball. You can lie down on your back. Place the ball right under the hip. Gently move around your hip area. You will feel pressure, pain, and/or soreness. Try this several times until you feel it releasing. Then move down the leg into the hamstrings, calf, then the bottom of the foot.

Hi and thank you for this and other videos. I tried some of these techniques on a new client and he said he got more relief than with any other therapist! Your videos are very helpful!

Thank u for sharing this video its really a great help for my husband. He was suffering pain from his hips down to his leg for almost two years and used to go for message but it doesn't help much. Will try this thanks.

[@fahimaferoz4226]

I never seen a therapist give a message like you. Well done

[@lornabartlett2744]

Excellent ( talk in a series about chronic pain).. exactly what i need, is this type of massage. QQQ QUESTION : I HAVE CHRONIC HIP BURSITIS (5years) IN THE LEFT HIP JOINT. The pain is continious throbbing if i do too much. Also associated with the feeling of Sciatica nerve pain down through to the foot which limits physical activity. I use the elastic band to stretch to strenghten. I wish this massage would be the cure the cause & effect on-going pain. I use a tennis ball also

[@oambitiousone7100]

Learned side lying in Thai Massage 9 years ago, and it's my favorite, too. So helpful for neck, shoulders, QL, glutes, stretching, and depth on interior leg line.

[@Cordial_Lump]

thank you! I learned the piriformis pin-and-stretch technique in school, but that was the only practical thing we learned about sciatica. It's nice to see you elaborate on my education.

[@vr4dani]

Another stellar video!! Will need to watch it a few times at least. CEU wish list- prenatal series!!! I want to badly to offer this more to clients but don’t have the confidence. Would love to learn this from you!

[@12willett]

Your work is some of the best I have seen along with massage sloth.

[@L-mo]

[@razvand.4844]

Connective tissue does not melt, maybe just adhesions, it gets loosen and release the tissues. It appears after an injury or because of weakness. It disappears in time with massage. Great work :D

Hi Allison. I love to watch and learn. Ive been motivated to become a better therapist because of you. I would love to learn more smart work and myofascial release, detailed trigger point therapy as CEU courses. Barbara here from ACC. One change. Changes everything. 😁

[@laylamamii]

Omg, I love your work but I'm never using my thumbs again. There's tools for that 💯

[@taoist32]

I use the flat part of my fist when doing flutes and hips. Thumb work in that area is too much pressure on the joints.

I would love a video on how to inhibit/eliminate guarding responses in clients. I work with mostly with people who have been in car accidents, most of whom have never had any kind of massage before. So, they are guarded not only because of the physical trauma of the car accident, but also because they are nervous about getting a massage. How do you educate clients who have very little or no awareness of what’s happening in their body?

[@randomuser1105]

Great suggestion. I second this.

I’m a dancer and am going in a circles for the last 2 years from osteopaths to chiropractors, to PT and I know there is a way to address my back issue , but just can’t find a right specialist. Can you recommend someone who does the same technique in tri - state area? I’ll highly appreciate that!

[@kovviebishop8131]

I need a session with you! I have excruciating pain in this area! I haven’t found anyone who can relieve it! I am a LMT as well and the director of a massage school! Very interested in taking a CEU class from you on this and possibly having you teach a CEU in the future.
