We talk about fascia A LOT in bodywork. So.. what is it?
Fascia is your body’s built-in support system—a web of connective tissue that surrounds your muscles, bones, and organs. It keeps everything in place, helps you move, and plays a major role in how your body feels. Think of it as a stretchy, protective layer that needs care just like the rest of you.
But here’s the fascinating part: fascia is more than structure. It’s packed with over 250 million nerve endings, making it a true “feeling organ.” Ever said you feel tense? That’s your fascia responding to stress and tightening up. When fascia becomes tight or dehydrated, you may feel stiff, sore, or sluggish.
The good news? Caring for your fascia is simple—and even small, consistent habits can make a big difference in how you move, feel, and function every day.
