Pain + Emotions: Fascia & Your Nervous System
Our body's inner communication network can trap stress and trauma.
Our bodies store the messages of our past: Fascia are the web-like connective tissue that wraps around muscles, nerves, and organs. When inflamed from stress and trauma they resrict blood flow.
Unprocessed stress and trauma are kept in the sensory nerves of the fascia: Stored tension builds up in the nervous system and feels like radiating pain, disrupted sleep, reduced energy, headaches or migranes.
Our anatomy is deeply connected to our nervous system: It's normal for integrated therapies (Somatic Release therapies) to cause an emotional gate to open during or after treatment. Your therapist will always provide a safe, calm space to process.
Excess stored emotions can live on as chronic tension or pain: Restricted fascia and stored tension can affect everything from digestion to hormone balance and nervous system regulation.
Massage therapy can provide an outlet for stress and trauma release. Targeted treatment sessions and total body assessments for effective fascia release are just the first steps in our healing process.
