Deanna Hansen is Certified Athletic Therapist and founder of Fluid Isometrics and Block Therapy, a bodywork practice that is a meditation, exercise and therapy all in one. Deanna began her practice as an Athletic Therapist in 1995, always focusing on deep tissue work. She built up a thriving practice but unfortunately Deanna’s physical health and mental wellbeing were eluding her. In 2000, Deanna

experienced a major breakthrough. While experiencing the worst of a series of anxiety attacks, Deanna intuitively pushed her hand into her abdomen and at that moment began a path of self-discovery. Her weight was dropping, the chronic pain and issues were improving and her depression and anxiety were lifting. She immediately began applying this to her existing patients and the results were immediate and outstanding. For almost 14 more years Deanna owned clinics where she practiced. In 2006 as word was spreading of the benefits of Fluid Isometrics, she began teaching other therapists. It has been a combination of transforming her own body and life and working with others that gives her such a rich understanding of the connective tissue called fascia. Deanna’s journey working with individuals was incredibly rewarding yet her true passion is to teach people how to self-care. Fluid Isometrics Block Therapy became the solution. Deanna took what she did in the treatment room and translated it into a self-help practice using a handcrafted cedar wooden block, called the Block Buddy. This simple, efficient, inexpensive approach is gaining credibility as people around the world are experiencing the benefits and sharing with others. Today, it is Deanna’s goal to certify as many Block Therapy Instructors as possible. She has developed an on-line teacher-training program so people around the world can teach to their communities and empower others to become their own health advocates.

💭 Have you ever caught yourself saying:
"I guess I'm just getting older."

Maybe you've noticed you're stiffer when you get out of bed, your balance isn't what it used to be, you're stretching more often, or movement feels different than it once did.

While aging is a natural part of life, it's not always the only lens through which we can view changes in how we feel and move.

That's one reason fascia has become such a popular topic in recent years.

Fascia is a connective tissue found throughout the body. It surrounds and connects muscles, bones, nerves, organs, and other structures from head to toe.

The more researchers learn about fascia, the more people are becoming curious about the role connective tissue may play in movement, posture, and the way the body functions as a whole.

One of the best places to start exploring fascia is actually the feet. 👣

Your feet are your foundation. Every step you take creates forces that travel throughout the body, making the feet an important part of the conversation when it comes to movement and alignment.

A lot of what people call “knee fat” may actually relate to tension, alignment, and how fascia adapts over time 👀

When the knees constantly lock back into hyperextension, the body shifts out of support and the tissue has to compensate. Over time, that can influence how the area around the knees looks and feels.

In this video:
• Why hyperextension matters more than most people realize
• How alignment may influence tissue around the knees
• A simple towel technique to explore at home
• Why breathwork and support go hand in hand

✨ Small changes in posture and awareness can create big shifts in how the body moves over time.

Your body is connected by an incredible network called fascia.

Fascia is the connective tissue that wraps around and supports your muscles, organs, joints, nerves, and blood vessels — linking everything in the body together.

When fascia is healthy, it’s flexible, hydrated, and supportive. But over time, things like stress, posture, injury, tension, and inactivity can cause it to tighten and compress.

Because fascia connects the entire body, those changes may influence:�• movement�• mobility�• posture�• breathing�• circulation�• overall body tension

This is one reason fascia is getting so much attention right now. More people are beginning to realize the body doesn’t function as separate parts, it functions as one connected system.

At Block Therapy, we focus on using breath and decompression techniques to help create space within the body and support healthier movement and alignment.

Jowls may involve more than just aging.

Over time, posture and compression patterns can influence how fascia adapts throughout the body and face. When the body shifts out of alignment, tension patterns develop and the tissue can begin to lose balance and flow.

True change doesn’t start only at the face. It starts from the ground up.

Your feet are the foundation of your body.

When the fascia in the feet becomes tight, compressed, or restricted, it can influence how the ankles, knees, hips, and spine move and function. Fascia release for the feet helps create more space, improve mobility, and support better movement patterns throughout the body.

Your back tension may not actually start in your back.

The body works as a connected system through fascia and when the feet become restricted, that tension can travel upward into the hips and low back.

Sometimes the issue is not where you feel it most.

Herniated discs don’t just happen overnight.

They often develop over time through patterns of tension, compression, and whole body misalignment.

When the feet, legs, and pelvis lose proper support, the spine may begin compensating in ways that create excess pressure and strain through the low back.

In this video, Deanna explains why the foundation of the body matters and how the feet and low back are more connected than most people realize.

Your knee pain might not actually be starting in your knee.

The knees respond to what’s happening above and below them especially the feet and hips. When the feet lose alignment, it can change how the knees track and move over time.

In this video, Deanna explains why foot positioning matters, how alignment impacts the knees, and shares a simple exercise to help bring awareness back to your foundation.
