What Is Fascia? A Very Brief Introduction
The myofascia is a three dimensional web of connective tissue that surrounds every muscle, bone, organ, and cell of the body. Generally overlooked by Western medical paradigm, the myofascial system has recently become the subject of much research and debate.
It is both an information communication pathway, similar to the network of nerves, as well as a source of structural integrity. In its healthy state myofascia is extremely strong (tensile strengths of 2000lb/sq inch) as well as flexible.
As we age and time goes by, the constant force of gravity, along with daily stress and/or past injuries, causes your myofascial system to shorten and tighten. This puts enormous pressure and restrictions on pain sensitive structures, leading to chronic discomfort, pain, stiffness, and fatigue.
Myofascial Release uses deep, gentle, sustained pressure and stretches to relax, melt, and soften the myofascial restrictions, and as tension decreases and holding patterns release, many symptoms naturally fade away.
