The Vital Psoas Muscle
The Vital Psoas Muscle: Connecting Physical, Emotional, and Spiritual Well-Being
Book Overview:
The roles of the psoas major as both a lumbar spine and hip stabilizer and a connector to the lower extremity appear more important mechanically and warrant its significance, yet its stabilizing functions are still in question depending on the movement. Information on the psoas’s relation with the nervous system is mind-boggling, yet very real. And spiritually, knowledge has been mostly examined through ancient texts and the science of Kundalini yoga and meditation, which appear thorough and relevant even now.
This beautifully illustrated book also shows the reader how to alleviate lower back pain, strengthen the core, correct posture, reduce trauma, and open energy channels. Includes complete sections on the psoas and Pilates, and the psoas and yoga.
