Fascia is the thin, weblike connective tissue that dynamically wraps every muscle, organ, and bone in your body.

When it is healthy, it glides and responds with plasticity.

When it is restricted, you feel it as stuckness, tightness, pain, or a limited range of motion.

I call this the number 4 glute stretch because we make the shape of the number 4 with our legs.

We are trying to alleviate the pull on the lower back from all of these really strong hip and glute muscles. When the glutes release, the low back stops being pulled from below and the sciatic nerve is more free.

New video in the Low Back Relief series.

Celebrating Juneteenth.

This is a special day to be fully in our bodies, to celebrate with and for our friends, and to actively seek ways to bring joy to our communities.

It is a day to remember what must never be forgotten, lest history continue to repeat itself, while staying inspired to keep forging bravely ahead toward justice, inclusion, and healing for all.

Happy Juneteenth.

Bodywork should not feel like punishment.

If you are bracing through a session, the tissues cannot release, and your nervous system cannot regulate.

The most effective bodywork can sometimes happen at the edge of discomfort, not past it.

The hamstrings are crucial to keep limber because they can affect the whole backside of you. And by the whole backside, I mean from the top of your head all the way down to the bottom of your foot.

We have a fascia membrane that runs through that whole space, woven in between every muscle fiber. When one area is super tight, it pulls on the whole band. So we loosen up our entire back by focusing on our hamstrings.

Slow down and ease up. Breathing and relaxing encourages our muscles to lengthen.

Myofascial release is not stronger pressure or a forceful massage.

It is sustained, listening pressure on the connective tissue.

Fascia softens on its own timeline, not mine
