| 0:00.0 | So this is a topic that I think I'm pretty qualified in addressing simply because I've |
| 0:26.3 | been in practice for 30 years and I also trained over 2,500 doctors in my methods and this information |
| 0:34.2 | is very counterintuitive. It's not taught in schools and it is highly effective as you're |
| 0:40.4 | about to find out. So if you have these muscle knots in the back of your neck and you're |
| 0:44.5 | in your shoulders up here or your mid back, you're going to like this video. So what are |
| 0:49.7 | these knots? Well, they're little balls of contracted muscle and there's so many gurus out |
| 0:53.9 | there and so many videos that are talking about. You just need to massage the knot, do |
| 0:59.6 | trigger point therapy, use different massage devices to break up these muscle knots and yeah, |
| 1:06.0 | it works for a minute until it comes right back. Now out of all the patients that I had with muscle |

| 1:36.6 | work together but they're usually two major pairs of muscle to create motion. You take a look at |
| 1:43.5 | your arm, you have the biceps that contracts and the triceps that extends and that creates motion. |
| 1:49.6 | Now when we're talking about the back per the neck, that extends the head back and then the muscles |
| 1:54.4 | on the opposing side bring the head forward right here. Now if we're talking about the upper |
| 2:00.2 | shoulder area right here, you have muscles that bring the shoulder up and you have muscles that |
| 2:04.5 | bring the shoulder down and when we're talking about the mid back, we have the muscles that bring |
| 2:10.6 | the shoulders backward and then we have these muscles called the pecs that bring the shoulders |
| 2:16.3 | forward. So the way you need to look at this is that all muscles have an opposing action. All |
| 2:23.2 | muscles work in pairs and they are electrically coordinated with nerves. So anytime you stimulate |
