Welcome to the world of fascia! Your body has TONS of it. Thin whispy layers, and thick heavy dense sheets.

What does it do? So much! Mainly it helps muscle groups work together and separately all at once. It supports and protects, and contains nerves and transmitters to help the body detect and respond to stimuli.

Fascia contains a network of channels that allows fluid to flow through it. This helps to nourish and lubricate the tissues it surrounds.

One of the MANY reasons staying hydrated is so important!

Finding Yoda a home was tricky, but NAWS Humane Society of Mokena didn't give up until he walked out their door for the last time.

Think you have "sciatica"? Well, meet piriformis! This is one of the 6 deep lateral rotators of the hip. This guy is special, though, because he sits DIRECTLY on the sciatic nerve. So when he's unhappy, he pushes on it and sends that jolt of pain all the way down to around the mid calf. A great stretch for this bad boy is pigeon pose or modified pigeon 🤘

THESE ARE THE NERVES THAT COME OUT OF OUR SPINE. There are 31 pairs of spinal nerves: 8 cervical nerves, 12 thoracic nerves, 5 lumbar nerves, 5 sacral nerves and 1 sciatic nerve.

These nerves transport motor, sensory, and autonomic signals between the spinal cord and the rest of our body. Pretty cool, huh!?!

My Uncle Bobby was an incredible human being. Because of him, I understand how neglected our veterans are and the lack of assistance they need. Mentally, emotionally, financially, and physically, we fail the men and women who risk their lives every day, so we have the freedoms we cherish. In memory of the ones that are gone, I offer this for those still here. Happy Memorial Day, everyone 💚🤘

Trapezius: the bane of our existence. Not only does it have a bunch of different attachment sites but upper trap is the antagonist of lower trap! Trigger points in Trapezius can also cause tension headaches shaped like a question mark around your ear. 😮
