The key to keeping your body fluid and flexible is to understand the fascia and how it glues to bone over time. From incorrect posture and breathing, and injury and/or surgery, scar tissue and compressed fascia adheres to bone with a force up to 2000 pounds per square inch. Stretching alone can’t release this tension…

What happens when we are injured? Ultimately, there is a force that enters the body resulting in a disruption of tissue. That disruption can be minor if the force weak, or extreme if the force is strong. A weak force may cause a 1st degree sprain in an ankle for example, a strong force may…

There are many different interpretations of what is going on in the fascia as it releases because there are so many beautiful, magical, complex things happening at once. Just watch the Life of a Cell by David Bolinsky to be amazed at the workings of every single one of our cells, as they are in…
Fascia is the tissue connecting every one of our hundred trillion cells – like a 3 dimensional fishnet. In fact, I see the fascia as being the cell membrane of every cell, connected to every other cell. A lot of confusion can arise when we talk about the melting of fascia. I think people have this…
Block Therapy and Fluid Isometrics address the Fascia System, and even the eyes are made up of fascia. In fact, every single cell in the body is interconnected through the fascia system. When it comes to eye health, the same rules apply – you need to have an optimal supply of blood and oxygen flow…
