LENGTH is not the problem with your IT band, my friend.

The IT band is fascia (not muscle) and it can't stretch much more than you can "stretch" a leather belt. This is actually a great thing, as the IT band is what gives our hips and knees stability through movement.

The issue is that fascia can become glued to neighboring areas. It commonly gets adhered to the fascia of the lateral quad or even the hamstring, preventing it from sliding/gliding/moving the way it's supposed to.

The result? Knee pain, hip pain, back pain, IT band syndrome, and the "feeling" that they are pulled too tight.

If we want to truly release the root cause of these issues, we have to release restrictions PERPENDICULAR to the IT band (cross fiber).

Watch for how to properly release with a roller and tell me how it goes for you!

Also, releasing this way is usually intense at first (because hey, the fascia is stuck and it doesn't feel great to compress it) so please make sure you follow my tips to reduce intensity. No need for this one to be more than a 7/10 at it's max.

Happy rolling!

LINK IN BIO 🔥

Join .monica.lesslie and me virtually on Dec 13th for our last part in our 3 part series!

Can't make it live? No worries, you'll be sent the recording.

Didn't do parts 1 & 2? They're already uploaded in the course that you'll get access to upon purchase. You can do them whenever's convenient and you don't have to go on order.

You can buy an individual session as well (although I do think there's a major advantage to being able to reset the whole body). Whatever way you'd like to participate in resetting your nervous system, unlocking your mobility, and releasing pain + emotions, we're here for you. We just want you to experience the magic of speaking directly to your communication systems.

DM me with questions!

WE NEED SUN! Not only for the essential vitamin D and the help to our circadian rhythm, but it's also incredibly helpful for our FASCIA.

Thanks to the research by Gerald Pollack, we now know the water within our fascial system is structured: meaning it's naturally purified, thicker than water (a gel like consistency), and has a negative charge. What happens when we're exposed.to sunlight, especially infrared light, sets off a chain reaction that charges that water like a battery.

It stores potential energy and builds up our reserves---so crazy!

So if you suffer from chronic fatigue or need a boost this afternoon, ditch the caffeine and go out in the sun for 20 minutes ☀️☀️

This week's been crazy. And the fastest way to calm our brain is actually by working on the body. The stress you're feeling has a PHYSICAL impact because our fascia starts to brace as "protection."

I'm offering a FREE fascia release routine from my Roller Remedy program today. Just go to the link in my bio to get it. All you'll need is a RAD Centre ball (or anything similar). It can help you take a deep breath and tap into your parasympathetic nervous system.

Sending love 🧡

Unfortunately, pain is a part of life. Instead of hoping that it just gets better on its own, a little bit of fascia release can go a LONG way. Our tissue needs compression and movement to rehydrate and reset!

Here's a time lapse of what I did when I had a crick in my neck a few days ago. I make sure to work all around the neck (including the SCMs, scalenes, occipital tissue, and traps) with a lacrosse ball/peanut. I also worked on the other side of my neck too (part of the pain is likely coming that opposite side as well).

The key here is to make sure you're moving slowly, breathing deeply, and not forcing the neck into a position that aggravates the pain. I got the majority of my mobility back in just 20 minutes, meaning I could drive to work actually being able to turn my head (you know, the recommended thing to do whilst driving) and my pain was completely gone by the end of the following day.

Thrown out your back? Or maybe you've been dealing with chronic low back pain and tension?

As kindly as I can say, please stop "waiting until it feels better." Stop hoping that it will "get better on its own."

When you do this, you're just giving your body time to develop compensation patterns and make you MORE susceptible to feeling back pain in the future.

There's a reason your back pain isn't getting better from:

🚫 Stretching your hamstrings
🚫 Foam rolling or theragunning your low back
🚫 Doing the figure 4 glute stretches your PT gave you

The problem is NOT your back, or even your posterior chain (even though it *feels* like your back and hamstrings are SUPER tight--it's actually a symptom, but the root cause). I've had a 94% success rate relieving low back pain with clients over the years without ever touching the fascia in the low back!

When you release your✨ fascia✨ correctly, in the correct places, you can relieve pain quickly and get back to life without groaning every time you get up from a chair.

Want to know how? I made a 14 day Lose Your Low Back Pain course that will walk you through the exact steps. You only need a standard foam roller and a squishy ball and you can do all the moves at home. All info is in the link in my profile!

Hip replacement botched the first time---and r yet recovery is always possible with the right fascia release. I love sharing client wins like this!
