You don’t like the pretty pictures.. Alright, here’s the full unfiltered rundown. Kicked off my trip from Calgary to Chiang Mai for this massage therapy mission, and right out the gate, they sent my luggage off without a tag. Then my flight’s delayed, and I’m sprinting through the airport like a maniac, sweating like crazy just to make the next connection. Made it to Taipei, realized I forgot my sandals, so no shower for me. Finally get to Chiang Mai, grab a local SIM card at the airport because you gotta stay connected. Then I head to the Airbnb, pick up a scooter, hit the local market for veggies and some replacement sandals. Get back and find my bag soaked, laptop case sticky, gotta wash all my gear. And to top it off, I grabbed a yogurt that knocked me out sick, probably the cherry on top of a wild start. But hey, that’s the raw grind. Let’s get to the education next.

Thank you to those who reached out I am doing a lot better Day 2 next 🫶🏼

Your hips don’t lie like Shakira…
but they do compensate👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

When I lift the lower leg and anchor my elbow into the glute compressing along that greater trochanter area + externally and internally rotating the hip. This is an Origin Insertion massage therapy technique with passive movements. Simple and super effective therapeutic massage therapy technique.

You missed this in massage school 🫠?

Advanced Hip Flexor Release • Therapeutic Body Monk Stretch Method

This is not a beginner stretch massage technique .
This is precision work.

Used to release deep hip flexor tension while integrating strength and control of the therapist. In this technique both individuals have to be in balance. Such technique should only be done by a certified therapist.

Hits:
• Hip flexors
• SI joint
• Erectors
• Hamstrings

Good for:
• Lower back pain
• Tight hips
• Tight quads
• Hip Flx restriction

That’s the difference between just stretching…
and therapeutic integration, that’s why understanding what you are doing is key.

Thanks for so much love our Elements family is growing let’s keep pushing knowledge 🧠🫶🏼
