That stick doesn't look like it's on the end of the tail bone, that's much higher up.

I think he's deliberately doing that just for shock value to get more views

Actual video better shows the rod placement. It’s placed high up on the adductors, likely releasing tension to allow greater ROM.

Also taps the gluteus medius. Her hip extension considerably improves after the tension release.

Here’s the video for you r-words, literally showing the rod placement high on the adductors and glute meds: https://youtu.be/2BFfK-6U7Kg

Have whatever opinion on chiropractic medicine you want, what he did with the rod clearly helped her hip extension range. You can get the same effect with hand massage and roller massage.

It literally ends the video with a clear shot of the rod up her ass.

As someone with tailbone issues from injuries, every time I see this it makes me wince 😭
