Upper Back Myofascial Release (Stop Stretching Your Back)

Are you tired of endlessly stretching your back, only to find the pain keeps coming back? It’s time to stop stretching and start addressing the root cause with targeted upper back myofascial release techniques.

Learn The Hidden Cause Of Upper Back Pain

Dr. Joe DeMarco, chiropractor and owner of OcraMed Health, demonstrates effective upper back pain relief exercises that focus on releasing hidden fascial adhesions in the serratus anterior and pectoralis minor—two often-overlooked muscles that contribute to upper back pain.

Chronic upper back pain is frequently caused by tension in the rhomboid minor and major muscles. These muscles work to retract the scapula but can become irritated due to adhesions in the serratus anterior and pec minor, which pull the scapula into protraction. This imbalance leads to persistent discomfort.

In this video, you’ll learn how to perform self myofascial release on the upper back to address these adhesions, reduce stress on the rhomboids, and finally experience lasting relief. If you’ve been searching for effective upper back pain massage techniques and exercises to eliminate your discomfort, this is the solution you’ve been waiting for.
