What is Fascia?

Fascia is a type of connective tissue that covers and connects your muscles, bones, joints, tendons, ligaments, and joint capsules. By working on fascia you can optimize mechanical function in your body.

When restricted it can cause:

  • Increased muscle tissue tone leading to trigger points, strains, tendinitis, and even tears

  • Increased nervous tissue tone leading to headaches, trigger points, referral pain, radiating pain, and muscle tightness

  • Limited range of motion disrupting natural motor pattern learning and proprioception
