I sometimes do gentle proprioceptive stretches to help the joint pain in my left hip, pelvis, gluts and groin (injury from falling on ice a few years ago). I am also interested in bones and joint-related pain and injuries and support clients who present with these. Breathing elasticity into each stretch engages the muscles, tendons, ligaments, soft tissue and cells.
I am also familiar with isometric stretches but never thought to do them to help my hip and the exercises shown on this Best Pain Relief Techniques course by Saul Goodman, Shin Tai International have helped a lot.
After following the whole sequence of exercises (for the neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, ankles, and lower back) in this series, my cells are feeling more invigorated. I had been feeling a bit sluggish and I now feel enlivened, enthusiastic and engaged.
[NB: From Saul: The techniques shown on this course are for joint pain. If you have radiating pain, abdominal pain, or suspect the pain is from an organ (like a kidney stone), you must consult with a physician]
It also feels apt to be doing these exercises as Spring approaches. The energy of Spring is emergence, and a movement upwards and outwards, new shoots, ideas and creativity. Movement includes stretching and supporting joint movement too. Movement helps to shift any kind of atrophy, stagnancy and sense of stuckness that we may be feeling by encouraging flow and more ease in the system.
