Massage Tutorial: Posterior Leg and Hip Routine
This is just a quick refresher on how to massage the back of the leg and hip, first with explanation, and then in real time.
0:36 Undraping the leg and hip
1:25 Applying oil or lotion
2:15 Body mechanics for leg massage
3:30 Working with the entire leg
4:20 Massaging the hamstrings and hips
7:18 Incorporating passive range of motion
8:30 Massaging the calf
11:18 Working with the calf and hip with a bent knee
12:30 Entire posterior leg and hip routine in real time
I start my leg massage routine by using techniques that encompass as much of the limb as possible. This warms the area and gives information about the interconnectedness of the body. Next I'll focus on the hamstring and hip, working with them as one unit, allowing my techniques to contact the ischial tuberosity and lateral pelvis muscles. I don't have a set number of repetitions, instead making sure to be comprehensive and giving a variety of stimuli.
When working with the calves, come around to the sides to contact the medial and lateral portions of the soleus and gastrocnemius. Pay attention to each head of the gastroc, and follow them to the posterior knee. Be careful not to apply too much downward pressure to the back of the knee, but don't feel like you need to completely interrupt your flow by avoiding it.
I also include gentle movement while working with the posterior leg and hip, drawing up the ankle so that I can rotate the femur during gliding and compression. I finish by placing downward pressure on the ankle while gently compressing the low back superiorly, creating some pleasant distraction at the hip.
