Often, the sensation during a stretch can be more important than simply the range of motion you achieve. How your body feels during the movement—whether it’s relaxed, supported, or challenged—can influence how deeply a stretch impacts your muscles, joints, and overall mobility.

It’s about being present with the body, listening to it, and finding that balance between pushing your limits and respecting your body’s signals.

This is why breath with stretch is important.

Do you focus on that aspect when you stretch or move?

A unique way to address the body to help heal and recover is integrating fascia stretch therapy and Myofascial massage. It helps relieve deep muscle tension, improve mobility and enhance blood flow.

When conducting a shoulder assessment using FST, the primary focus is on the fascia surrounding the shoulder and shoulder blade area, along with the surrounding soft tissues, muscles, and joints.

Observing the alignment of the shoulders and the scapulae (shoulder blades) in relation to the spine or any asymmetries, such as rounded shoulders or elevated scapulae, this might indicate fascial restrictions or muscle imbalances.

It is common for those who find discomfort mid back or the neck present itself during passive movement. Very slow movement to ease tension is key to allow areas to release tension and tenderness.

Moving in a particular way to avoid pain may prolong injuries and pain which can cause dysfunction and imbalances of the body over time.

Let’s not treat the symptom but pay attention to areas that need attending to whether it’s to mobilise, stretch or strengthen.
