For the side, laying levator scapula/supraspinatus, soft tissue release, when Dr. Anthony says to “lock your thumb or fingertips at the root of the spine of the scapula” is he referring to where I have my finger in the first picture or the second picture? I’m not really sure what “root of the scapula means”. I always thought that was in the neighborhood of SI 13 to BL 36/37. Thanks so much!

January’s webinar is here! This one is a favorite of mine because it includes the fascial lens when teaching the movement of the foot and ankle. It cover anatomy, fascia, and accessory motion of the foot and ankle. Definitely worth checking out.

@Exstoreman 62 year old female with Left Lateral Leg Pain. Constant pain radiating down lateral left thigh and calf into foot with numbness and cold feeling primarily in big toe and pins-and-needles sensation throughout upper foot. Whole foot is very sensitive. Leg feels heavy.
Began 2 years ago with sudden severe low back pain. Toes in L foot suddenly went numb and went up side of leg.
See attached MRI report.
She's otherwise very healthy and has NO LBP whatsoever. Walks 4-5 miles/day. Skis (and notices it’s harder to turn with left leg).
Have treated her 5 times so far (weekly), treating MPs and doing renovation with no improvement in symptoms except for after the 3rd visit her leg felt a bit lighter, but just for a few hours. Also, SLR is improved.
Wondering if there's anything else I can try? MRI mentioned drop foot (no symptoms now) - should I treat the peroneal nerve (as discussed in recent LIVE)? Other ideas?
1st EXSTORE Scan:
ROM:
SLR: L-50 / R-60 (limited by hamstring tightness)
Inhibition:
