Shoulder Blade Release and Stretching During a Bodywork Session

With your jacket on, I'll touch your hand.

Nooo! It feels a bit painful. Ah, it hurts a little.

It's stiff here. I know, right? The area right behind here must be stiff.

The lower back. Crunchy. Like this? Oh, you're right.

That's right. That means your diaphragm is also stiff.

Nooo! Are you okay? I'm totally fine. Are you okay?

I see, because everyone holds it like this.

I'll press on your stomach a little too.

Nooo! I'll adjust it a little. It hurts just a little.

Nooo! It might hurt a little. It's not just "a little," is it? I'm sorry.

It hurts and tickles. I know, right? With this, I think it will probably protect it.

Huh? Huh? You're right, why? Yes, right here.

You can tell, right? I'm going to pull this.

Whoa! The resistance. That's right. It lifts up like this, right?

Your shoulder blades... I really like this kind of thing where the shoulder blades lift up.

I'm glad. But they're in great shape. They go in so beautifully.

I'm happy. Let's do some breathing stretches.

Okay, lie on your back. Now, let's do that painful one from earlier.

A lot of clients absolutely hate this. Is it going to hurt?

It hurts, doesn't it? I'm sorry. This rotates, see?

You're right, that's interesting. This side is more... this, you see.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! This side too, the right side.

Oh, you're right. That means this will also affect it.

It's amazing, isn't it? Whoa! Whoa! When this happens, you make funny noises, don't you?
