No, that isn’t a fancy piece of cake that you’re seeing! 🍰

This several-layers tall gâteau actually demonstrates the various parts of your anatomical makeup. Did you know that you’re not just made up of skin, muscles, and bones? It’s more complicated than that!

Fascia tissue has two distinct types: superficial fascia and deep fascia tissue. While muscles are what makes you move, fascia is the protective layer that covers and connects everything in your body. It’s full of nerve endings (called proprioception) that signal to you when something hurts.

Fascia has 6-8 times more proprioceptive sensory nerve endings than muscles, so it helps you move more smoothly and protects you from harm when that spidey-sense kicks in! 🕷️

Headaches are the worst! 🤕

Did you know that there are different types of headaches, triggered due to various reasons? Some of the most common headaches are triggered by stress or tension. Next time you get a headache, think about where it is located in your head and do some research on how to fight it – it could be your body telling you some needs aren’t being met!

The brain is a powerhouse! 🧠💪

RAPID NFR therapy makes use of your brain’s response to stimuli so that it can heal areas of pain within your body. There’s 8 simple ways that your brain can help heal you overtime, as long as you’re willing to do your part, too!

By researching and practicing various types of movement after a RAPID session, your brain can continue to signal to your nervous system that healing you is important! Repeating these movements over time, even if they’re hard at first, will help with your mobility and pain-relief in the long run and – of course – give you more time to do the things you love!

Shoulder pain got you down? 😩

These might be the culprit! Poor posture, improper lifting technique, heart conditions, and even dislocated ribs can all cause varying degrees of pain underneath your shoulder blade.

Noticing more pain than usual? Book an appointment with your local healthcare practitioner to talk about any potential underlying causes.

RAPID NFR is different from standard massage therapy – so your aftercare will look different, too! 💆🏽

After a RAPID session, you might notice you have better mobility and range of motion, along with less pain. Keep hydrating and gentle moving your affected muscles by doing some light exercise, like walking. Expect some mild soreness for 24-48 hours after your appointment while your body heals up. Continue to track any pain you experience, and if necessary, book your follow-up appointment with your therapist! 🗓️

Fit check! 🧥

Unsure what the best thing to wear to your RAPID NFR appointment is? This quick guide will help you out!

Since RAPID is a movement-based therapy, we recommend wearing loose shirts, shorts, or athletic wear. ✅

Avoid wearing anything tight or constricting. Multiple layers are a massage therapy fashion faux-pas. ❌
