Flagstaff Massage

So in the video posted here, notice the general improvement that occurs after applying Myoskeletal Muscle Spindle techniques.

First test, this runner has limited range of motion, second test better, and third all the way!

I feel that the limited ROM is initiated by a tight line, psoas and rectus femoris, potentially hip capsule adhesions as well. So we stretch it to defeat Davis's Law. Then a quick few minutes of manual muscle spindle stim work.....Enjoy!

Back Pain in the Shower

When experiencing acute low back pain be cautious in the shower! Try this simple technique while rinsing your hair.

Stand facing the shower head rather than hyper extending your low back to let the water run down the back side. This may lead to a bit more work if you have long hair, but it will save you back!

Anthony Famiglietti

Beijing Baby!!

With his dark beard and long hair, Anthony Famiglietti looked as if he'd stumbled into the 3,000-meter steeplechase at the Olympic trials from the great north woods.

Really, he's just a 29-year-old guy from Medford, L.I., with indefatigable legs, a spiritual bent and some ethical uncertainty about the Olympic Games.

"The Olympics is not what it used to be," Famiglietti said Saturday, minutes after he won the trials with a wire-to-wire victory in 8 minutes, 20.24 seconds, a feat he celebrated by traipsing bare-footed through the Hayward Field stands, seemingly hugging half of Eugene. "It doesn't have that power anymore. A lot of people get caught up in the winning of the gold medal, the silver medal, the bronze medal, the money behind it, the fame behind it, and they lose sight of the competition. There's too much commercialism behind the whole thing."
Full story

Yes Sir!

Fam came out strong, looked great, hips, feet, legs and back.......the Myoskeletal Engine at work. Anthony Famiglietti, who has the fastest time in the U.S. this year, also posted the best time in the semifinals (8:25.27).

GO GET EM FAM!!!

Anthony Famiglietti races the 3000m steeple chase
tonight at 9:10 pm pacific. I have to say, Fam is one of
the most genuine professional athletes I work with while he is
here in Flagstaff, AZ doing Altitude Training.
Race well Bro...
