UGH I need this so bad!
It's soooo good
VERY informational! I've been dealing with IT band/hip issues for 11 months now. My Dr. thought it might be bursitis and injected the hip, which provide relief. I've been using chiropractic, acupuncture and massage therapy which gives temporary relief. I have my first appt with an orthopedic surgeon today to try to get to the bottom of the problem. I had to give up running and hiking hills with my dogs and my hope is to get back to normal activities!
Did your condition improve??
I need this!
✨️🫶🏼💯
people often forget about the IT band, I used to tell all my decathlon peeps that you need to stretch the IT band. They never listened.
TheCmoney84 YES! and it's attachment to the TFL muscle!
Pro Chiropractic exactly, it's like taking your car out and flooring it without letting the engine warm up.
+Pro Chiropractic how do you stretch them?
+TheCmoney84 how do you stretch them?
Mordough Johnson there are a few good videos on the net. Just do a google search.
I am not sure about the practitioners in tanzania. You could visit the graston technique website for more info. And for more great info please like Pro Chiropractic of Facebook!
this is exactly what I need! physical therapy ain't cutting for my itb. Been like this since Dec 2014 can't even go cycling more then 10miles without it hurt!... used to be able to do 50+ with no problem. Do all chiropractic do this? & bummer your not in CA Thanks
+Abraxas Hernandez just had this done with a local massage therapist who was into Graston technique or instrument assisted massage therapy. Wow. Made a huge difference in my knee pain. The next day it was mostly not there and has been improving. Night and day difference. If your ITB is tight like this from overuse you have to get this done. It hurt like hell but it was worth it. Incredible release, greater mobility, less pain, and can start exercising soon again. Find someone local by searching for these terms and good luck.
Look for a sports chiropractor certified in the technique! Your best choice!
There is similar technique that has been already common in Traditional Chinese Medicine for many years, in Chinese, (刮痧 Gua Sha, scraping along the meridian channels).
Correct! Similar, not the same. The differences lie in the materials used to make the instruments, and in the level of training needed to practice the techniques.
Great video. I’ve been using Graston tools on my body along with the hyper volt and it’s great. Also helped femoral nerve impinging. My squat is so much deeper to complete squat now with more strength
We love using our Hypervolt Tools as well! Thanks for the great feedback.
"All you gotta do is bend the knee..."
Jon Snow is not gonna like this...
Great comment :)
Is it OK to strength train, (squats and weighted hip trust), while my knee hurts because of ITBS? And would strength training the hips cause the hip flexors to be even more tight hence reversing the benefits of stretching?
Training through pain is not a good idea. Pain is your body's way of telling you that there is some sort of imbalance in the system causing tissues to break down. Most likely you have an issue with flexibility or motor control, not strength. A qualified sports chiropractor can help point you in the right direction. Look for someone in your area with CCSP or DACBSP credentials.
VERY GOOD VIDEO GOOD WORK, WHERE CAN I BUY ONE OF THOSE METAL HAND BAR? IT BE VERY USEFUL THANK YOU
Go to GrastonTechnique.com
I got a patient with severe OA & very tender ITB.. How much time shall the treatment be? Currently passive release & foam rolling os helping.
Typically they will notice a difference in 4 sessions, with treatment usually not extending longer than 12 sessions
Is IT band caused by muscular imbalances or tightness in the hip, and if so how long can a muscle be tight for?
Yes, those are some of the causes of IT band syndrome. These imbalances can become chronic and may last for years.
Your videos have been very informative. Thank you. I am confused about the first adjustment you made. Your hands were below her tibia and it looked as if the force was being applied posteriorly, when you mentioned the tibia had shifted posteriorly. Were you focusing on the hip / SI joint or the knee or a combination when you applied the forces?
On the knee at the tibial plateau, to move the tibia anterior.
So are these tools I've been coming across on youtube (Astym, the one you're using) just a more aggressive massage? I've seen some where they break up scar tissue using this too.
The tools we are using in this video are Graston Technique IASTM instruments. Please view our other videos for more info! Thanks for the question.
Had this done in the same spot and I almost rose up off the table in pain. Also had it done on my back and it didn't hurt at all.
functional tests - never heard of it. How do I find a chiropractor that does this? I have a bunch of issues from hips, IT bands, quad, knees, calfs and achilles tendonitis (surgery scheduled June 8th). I keep changing chiropractors and PT to try to find the right one. HELP!! I live in Bufffalo, NY. I want to work with a team to get me better and better than ever.
Hi Marcia, please find a certified sports chiropractor (CCSP) in your area who has also been certified in Graston Technique. Best of luck!

Well done
thank you!!
is foam rolling the same as this? would it still help as well as this?
Similar, but not the same. When foam rolling fails, you should seek out a qualified practitioner to employ this treatment. Like us for some more great info!

I went to therapy for 7 months for knee pain Andes they concluded that it was ITBS. I stopped running in October and have just started running again. Throughout this whole period my it band has not gotten much better. I have been working on strengthening my quads and hamstrings as well as my ab and adductors. Tell me, is it normal to feel a tendon move around on the lateral anterior side of your knee? It's only on my left knee that I feel this so I know it is not normal. It feels as if it is inflamed but my PT didn't seem too worried about it. Again, I have just started running again, but I don't want to increase mileage too much until this is completely better.
It is not normal, and you should be further evaluated. Thanks for watching and commenting 🙂
i'm a vball player and i rarely ever stretch. have had problems with my knee for the past couple months until some guy told me it could be my it band. Brought it up to a friend of mine who said he knows a deep tissue massage for it. I don't think i've experienced anything quite as painful
Many therapists beat up the IT band trying to get it to release, when it is much easier and more effective to treat the TFL muscle which attaches to the IT band. Try this, you may be much happier! Best, DrJ
I recently had this done by my PT and it was level 10 pain--like literally felt as bad as being cut---near the knee on the right side and she said she was not pressing hard--what does this mean--on my left there was a huge bump near the knee way more than the rest of the leg--seriously this is the worst pain I've ever felt--I sweat through my clothes and couldn't speak--do I have some sort of condition?
This is hard to tell without an evaluation. Please feel free to book with us! :)
I have an IT Band syndrome and my physiotherapist gave me exercise to do which I have been doing and ice religiously but I went for a long run after 8mile my Knee started to hurt again and I walked the rest of the mile.i have a marathon coming in less than 7days,what do you think I should do please?
Manaul therapies and stability training.
that shit looks brutal.
It is actually quite comfortable in the hands of an experienced professional.
I like the cow tape
:) Thanks, it is kind of fun!
Can you come to Savannah GA and repeat that on me leg? I'm in the military and can't get that treatment. Thanks!
Still working on the cloning! ✨️🫶🏼
My PT stopped scraping my IT band and now I still have pain. I'm not sure why they stopped scraping but I really wish they still scraped my knee because everytime after scrapping the pain went away. Any reason why they would stop scrapping?
Maybe your PT is inexperience with the application of the technique and the frequency needed for full results.
With this syndrome when someone starts to run does their leg swell and or have discoloration???
Typically not. This would likely indicate another condition.

if I have runners knee Will this help my issue?
Yes, quite likely.

whats the name of this instruments dr?
Graston Technique Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM)
Hello ! I wonder where I can buy this instrument..
Thanks..
Now you can find them everywhere online. For the originals, Google Graston Technique
The handlebars for the IT band? That's such a "sensitive area" Direct massage to the area would definitely work, but I'm sure chiropractors learn different methods
The key is in the communication and training of the provider :)
I have been dealing with this problem for a year and a half now. It started from playing basketball. I have done lots of foam rolling, stretching, strengthening and no improvements. I cant even do leg press without pain in the knee. Is there any hope for me or is this just permanent at this point?
alright so basically and usually its all in the HIPS baby. You gotta hit the hip flexors to fix the issue. This means you need to strengthen the core muscle such as psoas muscles deep inside your abdomen and fix other muscle imbalances. Imbalances such as the abductors not the ADDUCTORS but the inside of your thigh this will pull the outside muscles and stretch them also. Next you want to do the main problem most likely that is causing your tight IT band. That would be the FTL or tensor fascae latae or w/e. This muscle and also your gluteus medius are responsible for the IT band. You need to do two streches for this. One is the PIDGEON yoga stretch for the piriformis muscle. The other one is the cross leg stretch to stretch out that outer quad/IT band/FTL muscle. The cross leg stretch is the most effective one. Keep those trying and don't do too much on the actual tendon itself as the IT band is SUPPOSED to be TIGHT. But the muscle around it are too tight and cause little "leg" room for the IT band to move about. Usually the FTL and Gluteus medius are the culprits for IT band. Strengthen hip muscle and core muscles and stretch them all and eventually you will CURE the IT band. Hope this helps.
There is hope! Thanks for watching 🫶🏼✨️
are you in orange county
+orlando perez We are located in Montana.
I have the same problem and it go away with foam roller
Sometimes self myofascial release an be effective as well. Thanks for sharing!

Hi Doctor. I had pain in my knee 4-5 weeks back but couldn't locate it and considered it as a fatigue because of football but after 2 more matches it felt like i had injured my meniscus again of the same knee which healed 3 months back. but after 4 weeks i still feel the pain when i sit down or twist my leg at the lateral side of my knee. Is it possible that i have injured my meniscus because of IT band injury?
Yes, it's possible. A proper and thorough evaluation is necessary.
Isn't that traumatic for the tendon? I strongly believe that this causes muscle cell necrosis. It's true that it's a fast way to release the pain and the tendon but what about the loss of the muscle tissue? Anyway, stretching the TFL shows good results as well, even though it may take a bit longer to return to your active sport's routine, you should do stretching instead of foam rolling or other aggresive pressure tecnics.
Hi Sara, great question, BUT actually what we are seeing in the published research is this type of manual therapy causes cell proliferation and not death. This is far more effective than static stretching! Cheers
Pro Chiropractic that's correct! in a way this technique reminds me of the intratissue percutaneous electrolysis, that it may look that damages tissue but the truth is that makes a neovascular effect and provides great results to the tendinosis or other chronics injuries. Btw, awesome job with this new way to treat this problem ✌💪
Actually that's NOT correct! Your claim that this damage causes some kind of beneficial effect is unfounded. It's pretty much like saying that banging your head against a wall will somehow make you smarter.
That is, unless you can find high-quality peer-reviewed scientific research that says otherwise.
requemao there's plenty of research about the IPE, I invite you to take a look. It comes from the invasive physical therapy in Spain so...
Almost every manual therapy modality depends on controlled irritation stimulus to stimulate a healing cascade.
Hmmm, would Duct tape work just as good. maybe electrical tape :P
Just kidding. The Moo cow tape looks quite humorous.
But other than that, this is a very helpful and professional presentation, well worth listening and learning from, especially when picking up the details along the way

Are any chiropractors covered by health insurance?
+Espionage Snail There are at least 3 within a few miles of my house covered by my free insurance in Michigan. I'm going to one soon.
+Espionage Snail P.S. You can call your insurance and ask for names of covered chiro practices in your area. That's what I did.
Espionage Snail my insurance covers 20 chiropractic visits a year. my old insurance covered it at 100% after initial deductible for regular health care.
For certain! Most are
I suffering the same pain but I am in Tanzania
Same problem in Greece...Hard to find a docter and money...
Thanks for watching!
I thought it band syndrome is in the knee
It is connected to the knee
Hip to knee
where can you get this zebra tape??
+Charles Min Rocktape.com
This scares the shit our of me? Way too aggressive especially with a chronic injury.
I understand it can look aggressive, and if you have a chronic injury, THIS may be just what you need!

Pro Chiropractic What if I don't have the knee pain associated with IT band syndrome but its painful to put pressure on the outer thigh? Would this help?
Thanks for the video. My friend aggravated his left knee ITB doing a walking squat. He was trying to get stronger but ended up hurt.
Because he's a crook.
Quite possibly. But, as usual I'm going to recommend a thorough evaluation with a licensed practitioner. I would recommend a Certified Sports Chiropractor.
It was good all the way up until the stupid cow colored tape. Which does absolutely nothing that it claims to "PROMOTE HEALING" its just Tape!!! Weve had athletic tape for years and years and years. Its never magically healed anyone b4? What's so Super duper amazing about this new wonder tape???
Its TAPE!!!!!
Please check out the most recent research on the neurofeedback effects of kinesiology tape. Just think what could happen if you could provide an efferent feedback to the brain from our largest sensory organ....the skin. WOW! Just might blow your mind. (and it comes in tattoo if you'd like that better Bryan.)
