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, vessel, nerve and organ in our body like a three-dimensional spider web down to the cellular level and can store memories of physical and emotional trauma.
Releasing these restrictions allows us to discharge recurring emotional as well as physical pain - often achieved through a process which is called 'Unwinding'.
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 reduces pain.
Physiological mobility, circulation and lymphatic function improve with increasing pliability of the fascia.
