Welcome to the family, Carmen! 🖤✨

Let’s talk about the abdominal muscles.

Our abdominal muscles help with:
✨ Supporting the spine
✨ Breathing (especially forceful exhalation)
✨ Rotating and bending
✨ Core stability during everyday movement

When they’re overloaded, we might notice:
• A band of pain across our back
• Feeling “stuck” when standing up right up
• Soreness after a coughing fit, vomiting, heavy lifting, or a tough workout
• The classic Pepto-Bismol commercial symptoms 😭 (nausea, heartburn, indigestion, upset stomach….)

Gentle myofascial work and stretching may help reduce tension, improve tissue mobility, and make movement feel a little more comfortable.

⚠️Disclaimer: This is general educational information, not medical advice. Persistent abdominal pain, severe digestive symptoms, fever, unexplained swelling, or other concerning symptoms should always be evaluated by a qualified healthcare professional.

👇 Be honest… when was the last time you gave your abs any attention?

Let’s talk glutes. 🍑

They help stabilize our pelvis, support our lower back, and play a big role in walking, running, climbing stairs, and maintaining balance.

Foam rolling the glutes may help:
✨ Reduce muscle tension
✨ Improve hip mobility
✨ Increase blood flow
✨ Prepare your body for movement or aid in recovery after activity

The key is to move slowly, pause on tender spots, and remember that more pressure isn’t always better.

Have you foam rolled your glutes before? 🍑

Ever heard of the TFL (tensor fasciae latae)?

It’s a small muscle on the outside of our hip that helps stabilize the pelvis & assists with lifting and rotating our leg.

When it’s overloaded, we might notice tightness on the outside of our hip, discomfort after walking or running, or that nagging feeling deep in the hip joint that just won’t loosen up.

This is one stretch that can help encourage comfortable movement through the area.

Remember: stretching is just one piece of the puzzle. Strength, movement habits, and how your body compensates all play a role, too.

👇 Have you ever noticed tightness on the outside of your hip?

Hip mobility depends on more than muscle length.

Joint motion, strength, coordination, breathing, and your nervous system all play a role.

That’s why an assisted stretching session isn’t just a series of stretches. It’s a chance to assess how your body moves and choose techniques that support ✨better ✨ movement.. not just more movement. 🤸🏻‍♀️

The goal is to help everyday activities feel easier.

Leg traction is a gentle technique that creates space through the hip and lower back while encouraging the surrounding muscles to relax. Many people find it feels incredibly relieving, especially after long days on their feet or sitting for hours.

While it’s not appropriate for everyone, it’s definitely a fan favorite. 🖤

Have you ever had traction before?

👇 Where do you feel this stretch the most? Chest, shoulders, or upper back?

My actual nightmares 😭😭

Let’s talk about the lats and teres major 😌

These muscles do a LOT when it comes to shoulder movement and stability, and when they get tight or overloaded, our body usually lets us know.

The lats help extend and internally rotate the shoulder, while teres major assists with similar movement and helps support the shoulder.

When these muscles are overworked, we may notice:

• pulling through the sides of the ribs
• tightness through the back of the shoulders
• restricted overhead movement
• upper back stiffness
• that “my shoulders feel glued down” feeling 😭

That’s where mobility work like stretching and gentle foam rolling can be really helpful. The goal isn’t to aggressively smash tissue into submission. It’s to gently improve movement, give the shoulders and thoracic spine some space to breathe, and help the nervous system relax a little.

Especially if you sit a lot, lift, drive, or generally exist like a shrimp 🦐 for 8+ hours a day 👀

⚠️ Disclaimer: This is general educational information, not medical advice. If you’re experiencing sharp pain, numbness, instability, or persistent symptoms, check in with a qualified healthcare professional.

Where do you feel shoulder tension the most: neck, upper back, or deep in the back of the shoulder? 👀

When’s the last time you actually slowed down?

Not scrolling.
Not zoning out.
Not doing five things at once.

I mean intentionally pausing and letting your body relax.

A lot of us are so used to being “on” all the time that we don’t even realize how much tension we’re holding.

✨ Shoulders up
✨ jaw clenched
✨ mind racing
✨ breathing shallow

Slowing down isn’t lazy. It’s how our nervous system resets.

Sometimes that looks like bodywork.
Sometimes it’s just taking a breath and letting ourselves soften for a minute.

Either way… the body notices.

Quick check… when was the last time you felt actually relaxed? 👀
