Releasing Iliacus

Hip issues? Back pain? Knee problems? You need to release your iliacus muscle. The iliacus is the "ilio" portion of the iliopsoas. It works with the psoas to create hip flexion. It pulls your pelvis forward in a tilt. When it is stuck in tension, it locks the pelvis and affects the low back, the hamstrings, all the hip flexors, the glutes, and puts undue strain on the knee, contributing to knee pain and dysfunction. It can keep you stuck in back pain and limit the mobility of your hips. In this video I teach you about the iliacus, where it lives, what it does, and two ways to release it yourself so you feel more freedom in your whole body.

    I've had mild but chronic low back pain for a long time and I've been working on releasing my psoas, QL, piriformis, lats, glutes, glute med, you name it and I've ruled those out as the cause. I learned to just deal with the pain, but I stumbled across this video and gave it a shot. After a couple minutes I stood up and felt a couple pops in my low back and the pain isn't there any more. Thank you for this!

    I have had S.I. issues for 5 years. Even after doing all the stretching exercises that my P.T. gave me I still had a tight groin. I did this illiacus release, and the pain is gone! I can't believe it!! Thank you so much for this. I am going to incorporate it into my daily routine! ❤

    I went to doctors for 6 years trying to get someone to help me live a better quality of life with scoliosis. It’s wild to be that here I sit having more faith in what’s she’s about to show me than I ever will another doctor. Not one ever mentioned this muscle.
