When we have sensations of “muscle knots” in this area, it’s usually because you have over time built up a restriction of the ability to expand your posterior ribcage with each breath you take.

Naturally we should get expansion of a large area in our back ribcage called our Posterior Mediastinum.

As we become more sedentary, lose variability of movement, build up injuries, etc, this space can become progressively more closed off.

When that happens, tissues back there can become a bit “stuck” and unable to elongate/move as easily as they once did.

This sensation can feel like a “muscle knot”, but muscle knots don’t really exist as you think they may. They’re just often times restricted tissue in some capacity. Fitness Tips, Back Muscles Reference, Let It Happen, Muscle Knots, Back Muscles, Rib Cage, Your Back, Thinking Of You, Knot
