👉 As one of the largest and most powerful muscles in the lower back, the quadratus lumborum plays a critical role in maintaining stability and balance during movements such as walking, running, and jumping.
👉 The quadratus lumborum muscle can become overactive or hypertonic due to prolonged sitting or poor posture, leading to lower back pain and decreased mobility. Stretching and massage can help release tension in the muscle and alleviate these symptoms.
👉 In addition to its role in movement and stability, the quadratus lumborum muscle also plays a role in respiration by assisting with the expansion of the lower rib cage during inhalation.
The quadratus lumborum is a muscle located in the lower back region, specifically in the posterior abdominal wall. It extends from the iliac crest (the top of the hip bone) to the transverse processes of the lumbar vertebrae and the 12th rib.
The quadratus lumborum muscle is responsible for several movements of the trunk and pelvis, including lateral flexion (side bending) of the trunk, extension (backward bending) of the lumbar spine, and elevation of the pelvis. It is also involved in maintaining posture and providing stability to the lumbar spine.
In the quadratus lumborum muscle, trigger points can cause pain and discomfort in the lower back and hips, as well as referred pain in the buttocks and thighs. Common symptoms of trigger points in the quadratus lumborum muscle include aching or stabbing pain, muscle stiffness, and limited range of motion. Trigger point therapy, such as massage or manual pressure release, can help alleviate these symptoms by releasing tension in the affected muscle fibers.
