hi guys I wanted to shoot a video on a

great simple test for a knee pain okay

so we have our victim I’m sorry our

patient here that has knee pain and

you’ve had knee pain for I think you

tummy like about three weeks so it’s

been bothering her so I’m gonna show you

what to do okay you might be able to do

this on yourself or you might be able to

find someone to do it on you but I’m

just going to show you how it works so

the first thing is go ahead and stand up

okay and kind of squat down until that

knee hurts okay good okay so have a seat

so I guess it wasn’t quite at a 45

degree but it was when she comes down

this is weak okay so what we want to do

is we want to check the flexors on the

leg so there’s there’s these couple

muscles you have the quadricep femoris

right on both side and then you have a

muscle inside into the hip called the

psoas they’re hip flexors they allow the

leg to come up right so first thing I’m

gonna bring this knee as high as you can

okay resist me okay so this one’s really

strong okay let’s do the same thing

resist me as strong as you can okay it’s

weak so this leg is really weak this is

really strong what’s gonna happen it’s

gonna create a an imbalance it’s not

going to be symmetrical so when she

walks this leg is gonna drag a little

bit creating wear and tear on this knee

joint okay so this could have happened

from a fall who knows I mean we’re not

going to get into that but I’m just

gonna show you a quick thing to make it

strong and improve the pain okay so if

it’s weak on this side we’re gonna work

on the opposite side and we’re gonna

stimulate this muscle now it’s gonna be

really tender in here so just let me

know if it’s too much now you could

probably do this with the massage tool

and really get in there and work on the

quadricep on the out don’t work on this

side work on the opposite side right

into the hip okay

there’s there’s about four it’s quad

means four you have this muscle here you

got an inside muscle you got the outside

muscle right through in here and you’re

just going to massage and really work

out the knots through here it’s going to

be very tender

and you can go on the outside to come

right through in here right up into the

hip so this muscle this muscle and this

muscle okay so you work on that so I

just did a tiny little bit make sure you

go all the way up to the hip okay so now

what we’re gonna do is we’re gonna

recheck this right here bring it up

resist me that’s strong okay so now you

might be saying oh I’m not pressing hard

enough well you just do it on yourself

and or have someone do it on you and

you’ll see that it will get strong like

that

okay so now I’m gonna have her stand up

and just bend down and see if it’s any

better cool great so have a seat here so

that was less pain awesome so it’s a

really simple test in quick fix that you

can do on the quadricep always work on

the opposite side so the reason why it

works is both of these are connected on

a circuit the thigh bones connected to

the hip bone right and neurologically

you can work on this side to affect this

side go ahead and try it out and put
