→Massaging The Tensor Fasciae Latae
==Massaging The Tensor Fasciae Latae==
I have found the most effective treatment for ITBS is to focus on the Tensor Fasciae Latae (TFL), shown above in red. I use the [[Thumper]] to massage the TFL, which can be quite painful, but I have found that my ITBS symptoms subside very rapidly after treatment. For a wonderful visualization of the TFL, check out http://www.getbodysmart.com/ap/muscularsystem/thighmuscles/anteriormuscles/tensorfasciaelatae/tutorial.html
