Pain In The Groin
What is the most common hurt muscles for dancers and athletics? Yup! you guessed it.Hurting the groin or adductors muscles is the most common muscles dancers and athletic usually hurt. Traditionally they will be asked to rest, ice, compress and elevate, but what I would normally do is to work on the pain right away. I believe in working on it right away to break down the tightness and knots. It also help the person who’s hurt to recover faster rather than resting and waiting for a few days to even weeks later to start on therapy.

Hi welcome to another video. In this video I’m going to answer a question from two people, one is my friend who is a dancer and two a Facebook friend who is a rugby player or here in America is a football player have pain in their groin area.
How do you hurt or get pain in your groin area? This happens to mainly to dancers, athletics, football players, people who play a lot of games but it could happen to anyone. You may wake up one day and accidentally move wrong and pull the groin area muscle. Now what do you normally do when you have pain in your groin area or in your inner thigh.
Traditionally, you are ask to rest, ice, compress and then elevate. That’s the traditional but what I do I normally work right away to loosen up the area and take the pain away. Let’s take a look at what I would do.
This is what I would do. I would stretch to figure out here the pain area is and the next thing I would do is I would use moist heat. I have one of this at home and with kids you have to have one at home because they come home with aches and pain. Once you feel that your muscles is nice and loose you can remove it and start massaging the groin area. You can either so this way, the fiber of the groin area is this way, so you rub against the fiber. If this is too painful for you, what you can do is use your palm area to palm down like this, like such. Slowly like such.. one, two, three, one, two, three. Palm the area to loosen up the muscle.
If that’s too much, what you can do is get a tennis ball and roll it or get a rubber ball like such that bounces, roll it down, roll it down or with the tennis ball you can roll. That’s to break down the tightness and loosen up the tissue.
Or the other alternative will be using “Dit Da Jow” which you can just rub it with the “Dit Da Jow” with the “Dit Da Jow” is a Chinese medicinal ointment and just rub it. The other technique will be using myofascial release, basically just holding down this way and glide your hand through that way, glide your hand through the muscle.
You can do it with one hand this way or you can use your forearm just put your hand there and one hand pushing down and then one hand pushing that way… just slightly, slowly. What it does is when you sliding it this way.. it breaks down or iron down the fascia which is a tissue right underneath the skin and loosen up the muscle.
So basically very slowly and if you lean your body forward a little bit and push, your forearm will glide over the skin,of course if you are having a lot of pain then try to ease out the pressure. If this is too much pain for you, what you can do is rubing your hand together. So what you do is just rub, just rub the whole pain area. Just like this just rub the whole pain area. What it does, is simply by rubbing it, it bring circulation to the area and if you look at my palm and if I rub both hands here you can see.So you can see how red this is, how red this is. By rubbing it you bring circulation, when there circulation there’s oxygen and when there’s oxygen you will break down all the tightness and knots in the area. So just lightly rub this and to finish up you just go like this real quick, real quick movement and at the end you can actually feel the heat over the area and the redness shows that there’s circulation and it breaks down the knots and pain.
And to end up just loosen up, shake your leg a little bit and loosen up the area like such. just like jiggling, loosen up the area.
Well! that’s it! Thank you very much for watching and if you have any question or if you do something different other than what I do, let me know we’ll share with others and if you have any question leave it in the comment box below.
