The Deep Squat About 4,900 years ago, the Egyptians invented chairs, and the human spine has never been the same.1 Before humans had chairs, they squatted. Archeologists know this from markings on the bones of Neanderthal, Paleolithic, and Neolithic remains.2 Regular squatting can counter many of the muscle imbalances that come from our modern seated lifestyles. A squatting position strengthens typically weak, inhibited muscles, including the tibialis anterior, the peroneals, the gluteus maximus, and the hamstrings. As gravity pulls the buttocks down between the legs, the erectors and lumbar fascia stretch. A significant stretch occurs in the knee extensors. Massage therapists and bodyworkers enjoy the deep squat as self-care and recommend it when appropriate as home care for clients.

So very true and so rare to get this advice. Thank you 🙏

This post has little direct relationship to Movement and Back Pain but fundamentally it's vitally important to understanding our role as Functional Movement Therapist's. Remember Movement Proficiency along with Quality Nutrition are two critical Pillars of Health.

It's ironic that when educating about managing metabolic syndrome, Prediabetes, Type 2 Diabetes and Obesity patients commonly say "I couldn't possibly go low carb" (or keto or carnivore), but they have zero hesitation to pop countless kinds of chemicals, tablets and injections into their body if provided with a doctors prescription. 🙄

When you go to your doctor do you get a prescription or education? 🤔. Our job is NOT to write prescriptions or perform surgery. Our job is to educate people how to NOT need prescriptions and how to NOT need surgery. Find a doctor who follows this paradigm.
