Fascia - It's where the changes happen.
Welcome to our site. This page explains the role fascia plays in our body and how keeping it moving is the key to pain free movement and health.
Each one of our muscles is surrounded by a thin membrane of connective tissue called fascia. These membranes serve the same purpose as cartilage does for the bones; they allow the muscles to slide upon each other, which they have to do in order to contract or stretch during movement.
(Notice all of the muscle compartments in the illustration. Each one is separated by translucent, white tissue; Fascia.)
Whenever a muscle is impacted (contact sports, falls) or overused (lifting weights, running, over-training), microfibers form in between adjacent layers of connective tissue to bind them together so that the muscles can heal.
These Microfibers are nature's internal cast. Unfortunately, they do not go away after the area has healed and they tend to accumulate over time, making the muscles stiffer and more tense with age.
Fortunately, there are techniques and protocols to release these changes in the fascia. Direct Release Myofascial Techniques can produce significant pain relief and range of motion in as little as one session.
For lasting results and chronic issues, Structural Integration is a system that effectively removes the accumulation of adhesions throughout the entire body.
I will help you beat your pain
Few people depend on their bodies like a fighter. The physical conditioning required is intense and when it comes down to it, only the strong survive.
I will help you train without pain
Endurance athletes, especially runners, know the effects of gravity better than most. Whether your running a Marathon, Triathlon or running for fitness, every strike of the foot to the pavement sends awesome amounts of force into the body. Everyone has experienced the negative effects this can have on the body.
I will help you take your practice to the next level
The body functions at its best when movement and energy expands from the core and flows outward without restriction. Stress can cause structural imbalances and restrictions in the fascial layers of the body that will impede this flow, making access to the core more challenging.

More on fascia
Using Direct Release Myofasial Technique (DRMT), the fascia can be engaged in a way that almost instantaneously reduces pain and improves range of motion.
More on pain relief
The body has complex relationships in its structure and function. A problem with the feet can translate into an issue in the hips that causes discomfort in the back and so on.
