One of the best educative videos I could find. Thank you John. My 14 years old son has increased tone of the calf muscles. He’s basically walking on his toes. Do you think this massage will help? I wouldn’t like to go for the surgery, advices by our orthopedist. Thanks in advance.
@@svetlana1328 My pleasure :) I've been using that approach for my patients here in South Korea too. It's been working fine for them. I hope your son gets better soon ^-^
Oh wow Thank you so much for showing and explaining this . This explains why my legs and feet don't work right . You explained the way my legs feel. Blessing to you.
I do this exercise from 1 month this can help me and now I'm stand on my foot fingers but not on heel now I have too much pain in my left leg and ankle
If you cannot lift your foot through nerve damage from the lumbar spine (disc) or direct trauma to the peroneal nerve near the knee, it all depends on the injury you might have to wait for the nerve to regenerate, good luck, regards jG
I always felt soreness getting my calves massaged, always had a problem with my legs growing up, skinny legs no real muscle on the calf to the outside and looking at my shoes they wear away at an almost 45 degree angle as if I walk on the outside edges of my feet, bizarre. I'm short for a male as well, my father is 5ft7/8in yet I'm only 5ft3in, as a kid my Doctor said I will be same height as my father but never got there, don't know if it was diet or lack of nutrients or the way I walked but yeah I could hardly walk some years with growth pains, had to crawl to the toilet as a kid it was that sore and getting my legs massaged like I said I was squeamish about getting my calves done as it hurt. My upper half never really had a problem, seems normal to me, but yeah legs very skinny. Anyway being 5ft 3in isn't too bad until you start to get the knock back from the women lol aw look at you you're sweet...Hell no I'M A MAN! Hahaha yeah hard at first but now as I got older got used to it, made me a better person and realised things quicker as things never came as easy to me being half a foot shorter than most guys, overlooked, most times, but on the dancefloor 🕺🏻 that all changed, maybe thats what the light skinny legs were meant for...or a ballerina! lol 😂 All the best, what you do and show is good stuff. ✌🏽
@@JohnGibbons lol thanks JG 🕺🏻 Keep up the good videos, always good to see proper massage techniques done well. I wish I had you doing this 30 years ago, I might actually have grown that extra expected 5/6 inches taller lol All the best, take care. 🤝🏽👍🏽
Can i get this done to me a day before my 100 meter sprint coming- because I’m not sure if this massage will make me too relaxed and weak 🤔. No idea 🤷♂️
If it is a nerve damage and you have a foot drop then you will be under medical care so they should be advising you what is the best type of treatment, regards JG
Please John make a video of techniques for scoliosis. I'm always in doubt about what muscles/joint to focus and also what aproach is better. If you could also to explain what happens to the areas that are involved would also be amazing. Thank you
I had ACL and MCL injuries. I had an operation . ACL injury was repaired. But they didn't repair my MCL injury with surgery. They said that if I strengthened my upper, anterior and hind leg muscles, my MCL injury would pass. I am 5 months after the operation. I continue my strength training but still my MCL injury has not healed. How long should I work? When will this injury go away? Is MCL surgery harmful? Will this situation pass? What do you suggest me? Should I use collagen?
Depends on the severity of the MCL as minor tears will heal naturally - sounds like your tear was more sever as they wont truly heal the way they were before the injury and you might end up needing surgery to help, regards jG
It's like you playing with him time to get in the muscles 💪 the black man can do it better let's have a challenge bring the beautiful ladies out 😘😘😘2022.. Yum
Thank you for this info! I personally get tight, sore, calf muscles from dancing ballet so this will help me a lot!
Happy to help! Thanks! Regards JG

Do you recommend this massage techniques after an intense workout? Esp boxing and basketball
Would be great, especially after exercise as the muscles are warmer, regards JG
@@JohnGibbons thank you.
Great video John
Glad you enjoyed it, regards JG
Excellent demonstration, John. Thanks for that. I wonder if you have shown anything on Heel Spur treatment?
Not at the moment but have done a video last week on that, just waiting to get it edited, regards JG
Thank you John / Great Video!!
Glad you enjoyed it, regards JG
Do you have a practice in cardiff
No as based in Oxford, regards JG
So, I can't do this to myself but would a stretching foam roll help? I can't twist my body to do that 😅
Not really as soft tissue massage is better, regards JG
Hi john is this safe to do when you have a tear in this ankle muscle
depends on what muscle and the severity of the tear, regards JG
Peroneal brevous tear
Awesome upload! Relaxation is very important in our life. Keep it up!
Thank you, I will, regards JG
Bravo!
When would you massage the tricep surr?
This video includes the treatment of the triceps surae muscles, regards jG
I wonder if wearing steel toe shoes are the reason for my calf pains...since I can't bend my toes so my foot is stiff when I bend and stuff.
No idea if honest, try taking them off and see if the calf pain reduces, regards JG
Can i get this done to me a day before my 100 meter sprint coming- because I’m not sure if this massage will make me too relaxed and weak 🤔. No idea 🤷♂️
It will be fine as long as not to much pressure, regards JG
Its great... i love massage
We all do, thanks for the message, regards JG
plz guid me how I treat myself
I answered just now, regards jG
plz guide me I have peroneal nerve damage due to which my anterior muscle can't work properly and I have foot drop what can I do
If it is a nerve damage and you have a foot drop then you will be under medical care so they should be advising you what is the best type of treatment, regards JG
Increase wax/cream amount for hairy legs? May not get the grip but will also avoid pulling.
Thanks for the message and comments, regards JG
This is a soft tissue technique?
How would this work if their legs are very hairy? Would it hurt?
Use an oil rather than a wax, regards JG
Hello I'm new here 😁
you can use? but how am I gonna do this myself?
Easier to have someone who is trained to do these techniques, regards JG
sir tell me please mesaage cream 🤗
It is a fascial wax from a company called Songbird, regards JG
Could do with one, I keep pulling calf muscles in sport.
Thanks for the message, hope things improve for you regards JG
this guy is a pro
Thats very kind and thanks for the message, regards JG
Все понятно спасибо
Gorgeous model.
We agree! Regards jG

Difficult to truly treat scoliosis as if structural then soft tissue therapy only helps a little, regards JG
Watch the Mackenzie Method
