Dear  Shannon,Fascia can become restricted from trauma, surgery, and /or thwarted inflammatory responses.  When we are traumatized, the subconscious braces against the threat  to our survival and pain.  This inner tension begins to slow the vibrational energy within the ground substance of the fascial system.  The ground substance (matrix) is ideally a fluid/gel state.

This blockage of the energetic flow can dehydrate the fluid component of the fascial system that ultimately solidifies into powerful fascial restrictions that can exert crushing pressure of up to approximately 2,000 lbs/square inch.  This enormous pressure of Myofascial restrictions do not show up on any of the standard tests and over time produce a wide array of symptoms.

Myofascial Release can reverse the painful and limiting effects of trauma, surgery, and thwarted inflammatory responses.

Force

March 11th, 2008 · 6 Comments

Myofascial Release is known for its gentle effectiveness in reducing pain and enhancing motion.  The “old form” of Myofascial Release is an attempt to force a system that can’t be forced.

 The “old” form was a painful process that only produced temporary results while injuring the therapist over time.

 Massage Magazine reported in 2007 that over 47,000 massage therapists and bodyworkers a year leave their profession.  This is a shockingly high number.   I believe the reasons for this is the damage to the therapists body trying to force a system that can’t be forced and the frustration of only producing temporary results after all that work.

My approach to Myofascial Release teaches new principles that produce the lasting results you and your clients have been seeking while strengthening your body.   This positive and healthy combination will take your career into a new elevated dimension.
