Get Started With Muscle Activation Techniques® To Keep Your Muscles Strong & Functioning Well: http://vagaro.com/muscleactivationschaumburg/services

Have you been told you have a tight psoas?

Maybe you’ve been to some type of therapist who told you you have a tight psoas. Or maybe you have done some internet searches and landed on a tight psoas as the self-diagnosed cause of your issues.

While your psoas may feel tight, the truth is that it actually isn’t the thing that is causing your symptoms, whether they be in your back, hips, knees, or elsewhere.

So what is the real issue if a tight psoas isn’t to blame?

On this week’s episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, that is exactly what we are exploring.

We lay out all the different reasons why your psoas may be tight and why only focusing on the psoas won’t get you the long-term changes you desire, even if your symptoms change temporarily.

If you have ever been led to believe that a tight psoas was the underlying cause of your symptoms, listen up!

This discussion sheds light on information you need to implement to make changes that last.

Check out all the details in this week’s episode!
