In this video, I demonstrate the Spindle-Stim Test that assesses muscle imbalances in the glutes and shoulders that can lead to much more serious injuries and pain.

In this video, first I test my client's hip extension. Because she has a very low range of motion, I try to wake those glutes up with the Myoskeletal Alignment Technique that tones and activates the glute.
I use soft fist and fast paced movement that is the spindle-stem.
In the next half of the video, I demonstrate how to test for level of activation of her shoulder and then I continue with a technique to give more tone and space in there to increase her range of motion.
Stretching the muscles.
Posterior rotator cuff release will help with lots of shoulder problems we're familiar with as manual therapists.
Be sure to use your boydweight and move in all directions with this technique!

The spindle-stim test was invented by me as part of my Myoskeletal Alignment Techniques.
