🔥MUSCLE SCRAPING 101🔥 Full disclosure: this technique might be a little bit painful, BUT very effective and will have your muscles feeling amazing afterwards. Muscle scraping - a deep tissue therapy often utilized by physios, chiropractors or acupuncturists - is a great way to tenderize tight, sore muscles especially post workout, injury, or surgery. It is a massage technique that essentially softens up (scrapes) muscles that have possible scar tissue, adhesions, or are just very tight. For this, particularly in the low back, you’ll need a muscle scraping tool called Gua sha (but even a butter knife can work, too, if you’re careful)😉 and lotion. You can have a partner do this, or just yourself from the comfort of your own home. All you need to do is lay down, place a yoga block or pillow underneath your hips to flatten out your back, apply lotion, and start by slowly working your way from the lower rib all the way down to your hip. Make sure you go as deep as you can handle and breathe 💨throughout the process. That’s it! SO go on and get scraping‼️ Let us know in the comments if you’ve tried this technique👇 #musclescraping #guasha #massage #scraping #tightmuscles #soremuscles #painrelief #lowback #selfmassage #massagetechinque #therapy #moveu - @moveu
