Overview of Session:50 minutes lower back and hamstring effleurage and petrissage technique massage

Reflective Summary: Client has been training at the gym 6/7 and has right hamstring and lower back muscles. I palpated the Quadratus lumborum on either side and client had pain, I then palpated the hamstring and client had pain but not as much as the quadratus lumborum, so I started my massage on the hamstrings first using petrissage techniques for 10 minutes on each leg. I then moved onto massaging the quadratus lumborum for 15 minutes each using skin and muscle rolling and wringing techniques mainly.

Areas for further improvement plus action plan: Client needs to stretch out after every session and not perform any exercises that will strain their lower back. Client also needs to come in for regular massage
