What the heck is Fascia?

Let’s break it down quickly. Fascia is a band of connective tissue that lies beneath the skin and attaches, stabilizes and wraps around every nerve, muscle and organ in our body. In essence fascia keeps us up and moving on a daily basis and though it is very flexible it has a very powerful memory! Think of it like Play-Doh – you can mold it in to whatever you like as many times as you like but if you leave it in one spot for too long it will get hard and takes some elbow grease to get it warmed up and moving again.

So then what is Fascial Stretch Therapy?

FST is a pain-free stretch session that utilizes stabilization straps to best obtain traction and active release. As our specialists release the fascia they move through a gentle flow targeting not just one muscle, but entire lines of muscles and joints to traction out, open up and release tension.

FST is designed to retrain the fascia to hold “new memories” of how it can achieve function with increased range, mobility and stability. In just a few sessions clients have walked away with less or no pain at all in areas that they experienced chronic pain or discomfort.
