Trigger Point Release - Gluteus Medius

This video class shows how massage and manual therapists find and release trigger points in the gluteus medius muscle.
The gluteus medius is mostly deep and is therefore obscured by the gluteus maximus, but appears on the surface between the gluteus maximus and the TFL. During walking, this muscle, along with the gluteus minimus, prevents the pelvis from dropping toward the non-weight-bearing leg.
The gluteus medius abducts the hip joint. The anterior fibers medially rotate and may assist in flexion, whilst the posterior fibers slightly laterally rotate the hip joint.
As with the gluteus maximus, trigger points in the gluteus medius may refer pain locally to the buttocks and hips, but are more commonly associated with lower back pain where they likely form part of the same wider holding pattern.

99% of everyone would have much happier lives if they had a healthy gluteus medius. I strongly believe that.

[@brettshapiro6289]

only took about 30 years to realize this was the source of most of my lower back pain. Your videos are awesome. Thank you.

[@azeemali7102]

Too funny, it took me 4 years of exhausting stretching but like wise 30yrs of nagging pain.

[@tanuow]

And how did you fix it? I have really tight glute meds and almost every physio doesn’t want to hear it and do their own “analysis”.

[@samifehu530]

You helped get out of restricted breathing this thing was so tight for 4 years from a freak little accident and it tightened like crazy. Then over a year or two of not addressing it, I began to throw my left low back out 5-6 times and the muscles were so tight and my hip was way up in air, diaphragm so tight too from all the other triggers around my hip that got turned on over time towards the front that then I couldn’t even breath. And nobody could help me until you when I saw this video and then had my PT and Accupuncturist get on it to make it begin loosening, then I did low heat for a couple days to loosen more and more until it began to really let go of tension and now it’s almost fully relaxed the leg and buttocks. Amen, thank you sooooo much! God bless!

[@tanuow]

[@mariatorres630]

I’ve been having lower back pain for a while now . I was pretty certain it wasn’t a disc issue but I felt like it could be. Yesterday morning I was feeling stiff and I just randomly started to massage the upper glute muscle and kept at most of the day and then using a massage gun. And let me tell you what a relief. It’s still sore and stiff but now I know what to work on.

Great insights, important to note that medial tripper points can refer down into the maximus as well. That is where my trigger points refer. After extensive lateral movement such as tennis, my trigger point pain refers down deep in the maximus portion of the glute. All the same techniques apply to alleviating this pain though, great stuff.

[@tamiressaint5277]

Do you do these techniques by yourself?
