// 2023 CHANNEL UPDATE //

I’ve moved on from Mobility Mastery (self fascia release) in order to focus on teaching Kinetix, a my method of root cause discovery for pain and dis-ease that involves partner fascia release as a “diagnostics” (and regeneration) tool. Kinetix is a complete scientific methodology that I teach to friends, partners and professionals alike inside The Kinetix Academy.

My other primary focus will be the launch and growth of a new podcast and Substack community called The Human Freedom Project.

// NEW CONTENT ON YOUTUBE //

Sometime in 2023 I will return to YouTube with HFP podcast episodes and content created to help you know and understand yourself as a whole organism made of body, soul and spirit. This content will feature the Kinetix methodology, pain science, fascia secrets I’ve learned from 15+ years in private practice, neuroscience and evolving beyond the brain, trauma and the body, and more! I’m excited to go on this new adventure with you.

Low back and hip pain are actually the most common type of pain that humans experience.
Maybe this is an area of vulnerability for you.

You have far more nociceptors in your lower back tissue than anywhere else in your body. Nociceptors are the nerve receptors responsible for detecting threats to your body, aka "pain receptors".

Why are there so many nociceptors in the low back?

My theory: the brain and body’s primary job is to keep you alive, and it can’t do that if the central nervous system (CNS) is compromised.

The CNS is housed within your spinal cord, so anything that compromises your spine also compromises brain-body communication.

If your brain ever lost communication with your body you would die instantly.

For this reason, your brain will prioritize the integrity of your spine above anything else.

Those nociceptors in your low back are able to notify your brain immediately whenever there’s a threat to your spine.

Your brain then notifies YOU: with a pain signal!

However...while your lower back is the site of pain, it is RARELY the cause of it.

Your lower back always responds to what is happening in your hips, which make up part of your pelvis. Your pelvis is made up of both hips, your pubic bone, sacrum and everything in between.

Your spine sits on top of the pelvis, like a tree extending upwards from its roots.

Without pelvic stability, there is no spinal stability.

Those lower back nociceptors are like your body’s national guard, standing watch and always at the ready to announce potential threats.

The real problem, though, is in YOUR LEGS (roots).

Specifically, fascial imbalances in your quads (front thigh), IT Bands (outer thigh), hamstrings (back of thigh) and adductors (inner thigh).

If these imbalances are not taken care of, your brain will do everything it can to protect your spine, which means recruiting other muscles to stabilize you.


This is why I've come to the conclusion, after 12+ years in this field, that pelvic instability is the hidden root cause of most pain.

So let's talk about solutions for low back back of all kinds (including hip pain and SI joint pain).
HOW TO RESOLVE LOW BACK, HIP, GLUTE AND SI JOINT PAIN CAUSED BY PELVIC INSTABILITY:

1️⃣ STOP releasing/massaging your lower back and glute muscles. If they are "tight" it's probably because they are clinging for dear life to your hips and spine in order to protect your CNS and keep you stable.

2️⃣ Find the imbalances in your leg fascia that are causing your hips and pelvis to go out of alignment.

3️⃣ Figure out if your gluteus medius, gluteus maximus and/or lower abdominals have become inhibited as a result of pelvic instability.

4️⃣ Reverse the fascial imbalances that are causing your hips to tilt forward or backward, or hike up on one side (causing one leg to appear "longer" than the other).

5️⃣ Activate the muscles that were inhibited: your gluteus medius, gluteus maximus and/or lower abdominals.

6️⃣ Continue with the fascia release and muscle activations until pelvic stability is your NEW NORMAL.
