Psoas and Iliacus: Claw Placement

Your hip flexors might be the most overworked, underappreciated muscles in your body. And when they're tight, your lower back pays the price 👇

The hip flexors, specifically the psoas and iliacus, are the deepest muscles in your body. The psoas is the only muscle that connects your spine directly to your leg. The iliacus sits inside your pelvis. Together they form the iliopsoas complex, and together they drive almost every movement you make.

Every step. Every squat. Every time you get out of a chair. They're firing.

And because modern life keeps them in a shortened, contracted position for hours at a time, they never fully recover.

Here's what destroys them:
→ Sitting - the hip flexors stay shortened the entire time you're seated. 8 hours at a desk is 8 hours of slow, progressive tightening.
→ Running and cycling - thousands of repetitive hip flexion movements in a single session
→ Stress - the psoas is your body's fight or flight muscle. It physically clenches under stress and never fully lets go
→ Old injuries - a past ankle, knee, or hip issue that quietly changed how you move

When the hip flexors are chronically tight, they pull the front of your pelvis downward creating an anterior pelvic tilt. Your lower back arches excessively to compensate. Your lumbar vertebrae compress. That deep, nagging ache that never fully goes away starts to make a lot more sense.

Here's the part most people miss, you cannot stretch your way out of tight hip flexors. You have to release the trigger points first. Then stretch. Then strengthen.

The QL Claw was built to reach the psoas and iliacus where nothing else can. Targeted, direct pressure into the hip flexor complex, in a way a foam roller or lacrosse ball simply cannot replicate.

5 minutes on the floor. No appointment. No guessing.

You can get out of pain yourself.

The QL(!!!!) Claw was designed specifically to target and release your QL muscle. The QL is an extremely important, and overlooked, muscle when you are dealing with lower back pain. It can wreak havoc on your low back when it gets tight & weak. There are tools and balls out there, but nothing actually made to pinpoint & dig at this deep lower back muscle. So we made one.

The "k**b" or "knuckle" on the Claw mimics a massage therapist's elbow or thumb. The ramp forces bodyweight onto said k**b. Different positions allow you to control the exact amount of pressure you force into your QL's. Spanning from just grazing the QL, to an absolute heat seeking missile releasing years of built up tension and trigger points.

The Claw is the most durable, targeted, and versatile tool when it comes to low back, hip, and glute muscles. The QL's, Glute Med's, Piriformis, Psoas, Iliacus, and TFL can all be targeted and released by the Claw. 5 minutes a day releasing the muscle that causes you pain, you'll be walking around like a new person. Get into a routine with release, stretching, strengthening, and you can kiss that pain goodbye. If it comes back or you tweak something, you now have the knowledge on how to get out of pain YOURSELF. All from a little tool, tutorials, and the best support team out there.

If you ever need help finding out which muscle is your pain culprit, Claw positioning, pressure levels, stretching/strengthening exercises, or any general back pain questions, please reach out. We are always here to assist! Shoot us a DM or email, we love helping people feel better and get back to the activities they love!

Happy muscle releasing! Shoutout Dr. Mike from for the awesome video. Go check out their page, they have awesome videos and programs.

Looking for a tool that targets all of the muscles that cause low back pain? Look no further! The QL Claw was designed to release the 5 major muscles that contribute to lower back pain.

It was designed to mimic the best age-old tool for releasing tight muscles: An elbow of a physical or massage therapist. Because these elbows are expensive and never quite there when you need them, we stuck an elbow to a block, and pointed it at low back, hip, and glute muscles.

The Claw releases the Quadratus Lumborum, Psoas, Iliacus, Glute Medius, Piriformis, TFL, and many more. Each muscle can independently cause severe lower back pain when tight.

Learning what muscles cause you pain, where the pain points are, and how to release them can liberate you from nagging low back pain. The Claw will teach you just that. You can get out of pain yourself.
