This is one of the many reasons I love yin practice. Yin is one of the best ways to pe*****te the fascia and create positive change within the body.
Fascia has been getting a lot of press in recent years. This ubiquitous connective tissue used to be considered superfluous—not that important, and not really worth studying—but has earned its place in the spotlight in many scientific circles, and for very good reason.
Fascia is literally all-encompassing. From your head to your toes, your body is wrapped and wrapped, and wrapped some more, in layers and layers and layers of fascia. It supports, joins, links, and/or separates different types of tissue in the body. It creates a cohesive matrix of connectivity within us that is literally uninterrupted. It helps to give us form and allows for coordinated movement. Fascia is even believed to house a communication system beyond that of the nervous system.
The following myofascial release techniques require nothing more than a yoga block to effectively target the fascia surrounding the muscles of the thighs, mid back, upper back, shoulders, chest, and neck ➡️ https://bit.ly/mfrwithblock
