Trigger Point for Back muscles v4 - No supports!

Lower back Release Claw V4 – Extended Deep Tissue Release Tool (Back, Hip & Pelvic Muscles)

This is an upgraded version of my original QL claw — redesigned to be longer, more supportive, and capable of deeper, more targeted pressure.

While originally designed for the quadratus lumborum (QL), this extended version now effectively targets multiple hard-to-reach muscle groups:

🎯 Target Muscles

• Quadratus Lumborum (QL) – lower back tension & stiffness

  

   

• Gluteus Medius – lateral hip pain & stability work

  

• Iliopsoas (especially Iliacus) – deep anterior hip tightness

  

  

• Piriformis – posterior hip & sciatic-type discomfort

  

💡 What Makes This Version Better

1. Longer lever arm → Steeper incline significantly improved reach and force application and longer length provides better support.
2. Deeper trough - to allow more space for the buttock to rest and deeper trigger point

3. Greater pressure potential (taller trigger point) → ideal for getting into those deeper points

    

   Two versions provided - Intense and less intense

🧠 Why It Works

Most massage tools struggle with:

• Deep pelvic muscles (iliacus/psoas region)
• Stabilising muscles like QL and glute med
• Sustained pressure without fatigue

This design allows you to:

• Apply controlled bodyweight pressure
• Maintain consistent trigger point contact
• Access anatomically difficult regions with precision

🏋️♂️ Ideal For

• Gym-goers & runners
• Desk workers with tight hips/back
• Rehab & mobility work
• Anyone needing targeted deep tissue release
