Fascia is a connective tissue that surrounds muscles, organs, and nerves, creating a supportive framework throughout the body. It plays a vital role in movement, posture, and overall structural integrity. The lymphatic system, on the other hand, is part of the immune system, responsible for draining lymph fluid, filtering pathogens, and transporting immune cells.
The connection between fascia and the lymphatic system is significant, the fascia helps facilitate lymph flow, ensuring waste products are effectively removed from the body. When fascia is restricted, so is lymph flow.
Emotional reactions often arise during treatments focused on the fascia, such as massage or bodywork, because fascia holds not just physical tension but also emotional memories and stress. This phenomenon, sometimes referred to as “somatic memory,” means that when fascia is manipulated, it can release pent up emotions, leading to a strong emotional response.
In this video you can see from my body language the impact of the fascia and how when released my body relaxes (watch my feet) .
The body and mind are intricately linked, and addressing physical tension in the fascia can sometimes unlock deep seated emotions, prompting reactions that can be surprising but ultimately healing.
Once again for me the arm and armpit area are the holders are pain.
Tbh honest you can’t see much in this video but it’s my dogs birthday today and he is so good in this video I thought it needed sharing. Wish mr Marcellis a happy birthday - he is 14/15 (I can’t work it out 🤦🏼♀️) he is the bestest boy.
