Happier fascia can mean significant pain relief 🩵

>>🔹 Nervous Fibers of the Fascia 🔹
One of our recent works demonstrated that the fasciae contain a large thin network of free nerve endings that may play a role in pain perception and regulation.

The superficial fascia of the human hip was found to be the second most highly innervated tissue after the skin…The tendon was the least innervated.

Different types of sensory receptors are present in the fasciae: muscle spindles (epimysial fasciae), the Golgi tendon organ, Pacini and Ruffini corpuscles (aponeurotic fas-ciae), and an extensive network of free nerve endings. Each has a specific function depending on its structure and activating stimuli.

Schilder et al. clearly demonstrated that even more than the muscles and the subcutis, the deep fascia plays a significant role in the generation of pain symptoms.
Injections of hypertonic saline into the deep fascia resulted in longer pain duration and higher peak pain ratings than injections into the subcutaneous tissue or muscle.

S*x hormones affect fascia — in menopause but also throughout monthly cycles. Thicker, tighter, less elasticity in feet can mean higher chance of falling — and look at that contraceptive info!

Last week I could barely stand on my old broken foot—after sitting, I’d have to stand for about 30 seconds before I could even walk. This week, fine. Not in your head ladies! 🙂 fascinating fascia 🕸️

🔹>> The presence of relaxin receptor 1 (RXFP1) and estrogen receptor-alpha (ERa) in the deep fascia also change throughout an individual’s lifetime and is lower in the postmenopausal period with respect to the premenopausal one. These findings may explain some clinical differences detected in women of different age groups and why women tend to have different myofascial problems and myofascial pain after menopause. When Vita et al. analyzed the influence of hormonal changes on the deep fasciae during the menstrual cycle using ultrasound technology and shear wave elastography, they found statistically significant differences between the users and nonusers of hormonal contraceptives: the thoracolumbar fascia was thicker in the nonusers (p = 0.011), and the nonusers had higher maximal and mean stiffnesses of the
fascia lata (p = 0.01 and 0.0095, respectively).
Petrofsky and Lee also demonstrated that plantar fascia elasticity modifications during the menstrual cycle can affect posture sway and tremor and lead to the potential risk of falling.

🔹Why are the large majority of clients tighter on their left side? 🔹

“If someone can write extensively on the right vs left hand/side of our bodies, then it is obvious that there can be many possible reasons if not outright causes of asymmetry in the body in general, and why you may observe one-sided tightness in particular.

Naturally, there is a difference between actual asymmetrical head-to-toe “tightness” vs seeing say, a majority of clients with left side low back and hip tighter than right. In that example, many who are right leg dominant rely more on their left side for stability and right side more for mobility during functional activities. This will often result in greater left sided tightness that you may be observing.”
- Ann Frederick, creator of FST

In short - we all have asymmetries, sometimes due to injuries, surgeries, sports, but even just our natural patterns— so the right handed will often have a tighter left leg! 🤓 another common example: a person might do fine motor skills with right hand and hold a baby with left arm.

Love to see this: making marks on the wall at work to test overhead reach. She has made leaps with some previously tight ouchy rotator cuffs! 13cm after about 4 sessions! Way to go 😍⭐️👏💜

Have aches and pains, chronic low back issues, old injuries and surgeries, or general tightness? Are you athletic or sedentary? Stretch therapy may be just what you need!

💙 What is Stretch Therapy?
Fascial stretch therapy is assisted stretching that focuses on the connective tissue system. Therapy begins at the joint capsule and progresses through levels of fascia. It's pain-free and uses constant circulatory, gently oscillating movements, plus traction, to decompress joints and expand space in the soft tissues. You will experience decompression and a greater range of motion. I want you to feel your best, move with ease, and be pain-free!

⭐️ NEW CLIENT SPECIAL ⭐️ First time? Come in the month of April for an $80 one-hour session (normally $100) or get a pack of 3 for $240.

✔️ Online booking available. Open for evenings and weekends hours. Book in or reach out via my website and learn more about me and my therapies.

📍 9 Park Rd, Miramar Next to the Roxy Cinema

The traction and circling of the joints in FST targets tissue in the capsule, lubricates the joint, and facilitates better and more easeful stretching in the limbs 🤲

Benefits of Traction 💫

🔹Gets joint capsule open, decompressing the joint
🔹 Eliminates jamming of joint while stretching
🔹Releases adhesions in joint capsule and other connective tissues
🔹Increases level of relaxation through joint mechano-receptors
🔹Releases endorphins into the blood stream
🔹Allows maximal lengthening of all the connective tissues
🔹Targets fascial components deep inside joint capsule—as well as ligaments, tendons, and muscle tissues
