Fascia is the tough connective tissue that gives much of the body its shape – similar to the skin of a sausage. It connects every muscle, tendon, ligament, bone and organ in our body like a three-dimensional spider web and can store memories of physical trauma.
Releasing these restrictions allows us to discharge recurring emotional as well as physical pain.
Sessions can include craniosacral work, stretching techniques and deep touch.
The three-dimensional application of sustained pressure and movement into the fascial system helps to restore alignment and function of the fascia and to reduce pain.
