Video 1 of 4 - "Sports Ball" Release of Upper Right Back Pain
(muscle groups: erector spinae, trapezius, rhomboid, infraspinatus)

Here's what we are going to do:

A. Upper Inner Back -

The tennis-ball-press technique and the press-hold-move technique are the main tools we use in this area.

We're mainly after a muscle group called the erector spinae muscles. They are like a rope that runs up each side of your spine. When they are tight these muscles can yank on the vertebrae and the nerves that come out of them and cause pain.

I've also found these muscles to play a big role in the pain people experience from having a rib head out of position. The rib heads fit between your vertebrae, so anything that can torque them out of position can be a causative element.

Press the ball into any tight tissue you find and then move your arm to get it too release.

Notice how much pain in upper right back relief this one technique produces.

B. Upper Middle Back -

Using the same techniques as in Step A, find all the tight tissue you can in your upper middle back and release it.

There is a lot of muscle tissue in your upper back, so you'll be dealing with many layers of muscle tissue. When you release your trapezius and think you might be done, you'll run into the layer that makes up your rhombhoid muscles, so there may be more work to do. Stick with it. Releasing this area of your upper back can make all the work you do elsewhere that much easier.

C. Upper Outer Back -

And one more time for the muscle that sits on the back of your scapula, use the same techniques to release any tight tissue you find.

The main muscle we are trying to release here is called your infraspinatus muscle. It coats the outer surface of your scapula.

Modern living is tough on this muscle, so it tends to get tight. We were not meant to sit at computers all day, or sit behind the steering wheel of a car for hours on end. Both of these activities wreak havoc on your poor infraspinatus muscles.

So, for any activity that involves keeping your arms held up out in front of you for extended periods of time, make sure the steering wheel or keyboard, etc. are comfortably close and your infraspinatus will thank you for it.

Repeat this entire Step 1 one more time to get as much release as you can.

Video 2 of 4 - Front of Chest Release
(muscle groups: pectorals major, pectorals minor, subclavius)

Here's what we're going to do:

A.Underside of Collarbone -

The hand-on-hand technique. and the press-pull-release technique are the primary techniques I use on the tissue in this area.

This is an area that very few professionals seem to work on with much intensity. It's a shame because there can be profound benefits from releasing all the tissue under your collarbone. It can actually be the main cause of your problem in many cases. As I stated earlier, modern living is pretty hard on a body, and this area can get very tight and be causing your upper back problems.

The press-hold-move technique can also prove useful here.

B.Pectoralis Major and Edge of Sternum -

Use the same techniques in Step A above to release the tissue in this area.

Take the time to give this some good work. This muscle grabs a little bone on the front side of your scapala called your coracoid process. It's like a little finger that reaches through to the front of your ribcage. If your pectoralis minor is tight, it can pull on your coracoid process and yank on your upper back from the front of your chest.
