- Adjust position as needed to target proximal, distal, lateral, medial and central lats.
- Keep pressure on hips and opposite hand to control the degree of pressure.
- Increase intensity by removing support hand. Decrease intensity by addition of support hand and taking more pressure on hip.
- Roll a small area at a time and then move to another area. Do not over do any one area to the point of significant pain or discomfort. Less is more.
