Our bodies constantly respond and adapt to movement and internal or external forces. If there is a restriction anywhere in the body, the effect cascades through our fascia which sheathes every structure and system down to cellular level. This means that if we have an issue such as a sprained ankle or a scar from an accident or surgery, it can potentially affect our mobility and functionality proximally and distally to the original injury site.
Massage alone is rarely enough to free up such fascial restrictions, and fascial work is now seen as an important part of a therapist’s toolbox. If you work with the body in any modality, you need to understand this long misunderstood tissue.
