ACTION: hip adductor
REFERRAL: thigh and knee
COMMENTS: These muscle groups- the adductor magnus, longus, brevis and the pectineus, make up the adductor group. Groin pulls are a strain at the attachment of the adductors to the pubic bone. An upslipped hip may have tight adductors on the same side. Test the length of the adductors with clients who have lower back pain. Always drape appropriately and be gentle. This area is sensitive and can often be sore.
