1. The patient is sidelying with the shoulder abducted 2. The therapist palpates the latissimus dorsi muscle group for limited fascia mobility with the caudad hand facing toward the hips and the cephalad hand pulling the humerus into shoulder abduction. 3. The therapist uses a tissue tension technique to mobilize the fascia. 4. The therapist palpates into the soft tissue and engages the restrictive barrier with a light force in the direction of tension, sometimes up to 3 to 5 minutes 5. A light pressure on the barrier is held until the tissue barrier softens and relaxes and the myofascial unit elongates Notes: The therapist can place a pillow under the thoracic spine to sidebend the patient away to reach the restrictive barrier
