I T-Band Issues

10/23/2013

0 Comments

 
I have seen clients since our recent Chicago Marathon.  What I have noticed is the damage done to their ITBands (Iliotibio-band).  This is a thick band of fascia running from your hip to just below your knee.  Underneath it lies very large muscles. When the ITBand gets extremely tight it can start pulling on those muscles.  One major side effect can be excruciating knee pain.  This is where many times shots can be prescribed to decrease the pain and inflammation.  The symptoms are being address as opposed to the problem!!!  I am still running the $20 discount of a massage for anyone who ran the marathon.  Bring in your bib number or medal.  To get in on the discount regardless if you were at the marathon or not send me a message on this website or on my facebook acct listed above!
