Journey through the Essentials with a Guide
Got tight neck muscles? Scrape Upper Trapezius
In this video, palpation reveals the source of pain from shoulders to neck as the upper trapezius muscle. The recipient then receives treatment according to neck muscle scraping procedures within the Therapeutic Scraping Essentials illustrative textbook. The upper trap is extremely common for people to experience muscle knots, also called trigger points. As the soft tissue becomes more tense, rigid, and tight, the individual often feels chronic pain.
Got tight hips? This is how you scrape hip flexors.
Anyone suffering from tight hip flexor injury issues never tried muscle scraping the proper way.

This is particularly effective for relieving hernia lumps at the front hip; as well as psoas pain.
