Fascial Stretch Therapy, or FST, is an innovative system of manual, assisted stretch therapy techniques that includes joint capsule, fascial and muscular stretching to rapidly eliminate pain, improve mobility, restore impaired function, reduce recovery time & optimize athletic performance. FST is very different than what we think of as traditional stretching or bodywork, in that it is more functio

nal and dynamic. Unlike traditional stretching or bodywork that only attempts work on muscles, FST engages the entire myofascial system by targeting muscles as well as their neighboring joints, ligaments, tendons, and bones. Fascia, the spider web like connective tissue found in, around, and between the joints, muscles, and ligaments is the most prevalent tissue in the body. The health and function of your muscles, joints, arteries, veins, brain, and spinal cord are all a direct result of the condition of your fascia. FST helps to โ€œunwindโ€ fascia, which is full of nerves, reducing pressure between joints and the pain associated with it, while releasing joint-lubricating synovial fluid that improves the flexibility of muscles.

Shoulder feeling stiff?

Give these Shoulder CARS a go!

๐ŸŒŸKey Points:
1๏ธโƒฃMove your arm in the largest PAIN FREE range of motion possible
2๏ธโƒฃNotice how I ROTATE my hand throughout this movement pattern - that is very important for optimal shoulder mechanics & mobility
3๏ธโƒฃMove slow, controlled & purposefully. Donโ€™t speed through these!
4๏ธโƒฃโ€CARSโ€ = Controlled Articular Rotations. The goal of this drill is to move the joint through the maximum controlled range of motion with as much tension as possible
5๏ธโƒฃComplete 10x per arm & see how you feel!

What kind of mobility drills do you want me to post about next? Back? Neck? Ankle? Something else?! Let me know!

Looking to finally put in the work to address your mobility needs but need some structure & guidance?

Thatโ€™s precisely why I created my proprietary online mobility program, The Mobility MasterClass - to take the guesswork out of it for you & help you achieve your goals of living a more mobile, pain free life.

Whatcha know about an elevated pigeon?! ๐Ÿ˜

This is BY FAR one of my favorite glute stretches of all time, and I strongly suggest you try it if you havenโ€™t already!

1๏ธโƒฃFind an elevated surface such as a table, bed, ottoman or couch
2๏ธโƒฃPlace your right leg up on the surface with your knee bent 90 degrees
3๏ธโƒฃKick your left leg back as far as you can get it, keeping your left knee as straight as possible
4๏ธโƒฃKeeping your back flat, gently lean forward, hinging from the hips
5๏ธโƒฃIf youโ€™re up for it, take your nose over your knee & then span across, taking you nose over your toes - you will feel how this subtle movement changes the whole drill!๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ

โ€œIโ€™ve tried stretching, but no matter how much I stretch, I donโ€™t see any improvementโ€ -- Does this sound like you?

Sometimes the area that โ€œfeels tight/painfulโ€ is not actually the source of your symptoms. --In fact, Iโ€™d be willing to say that the majority of the time, that is actually NOT THE CASE!

Have you found yourself stretching your back over and over again only to find no relief?

Did you know that your low back discomfort could actually be coming from your hips? Or that your shoulder pain could be stemming from poor thoracic mobility? Or that the โ€œtightโ€ feeling in your hips may actually be coming from a strength & stability deficit vs a flexibility deficit?

That is precisely why I designed The Mobility MasterClass to include a guided Self-Assessment and proprietary Mobility Scoring System. Yes, you read that right. ๐Ÿ˜‰ โ€“And I must say, these are some of the features of The that I am most proud of.

I personally guide you through a full body mobility assessment to help you find your unique needs โ€“ because, lets face it, we are all different. What may be causing my knee pain may be very different from what is causing your knee pain. And the first step to feeling your best is identifying the specific sources of your individual limitations.

This is your reminder that

โ˜‘๏ธRest is not a sign of weakness

โ˜‘๏ธSelf-care is a must

โ˜‘๏ธSuccess is not linear

โ˜‘๏ธConsistency is key

โ˜‘๏ธSticking with it when you want to give up is a superpower

I recently watched the 2-part documentary series, โ€œCourage to Runโ€ on Discovery+, featuring , and one (of the many things) that stuck with me is the quote โ€œItโ€™s ok to struggle, but itโ€™s not ok to quit.โ€

Life can be difficult, and sticking to our goals can be tough, but when you are feeling down just remember, IT IS OK TO STRUGGLE, BUT IT IS NOT OK TO QUITโ€.

Working from home taking a toll on your body? Trust me, YOU ARE NOT ALONE, but there are some things that you can do about it!

Here are 3 ways that you can get out of the funk & get back to feeling good, productive & inspired:

1๏ธโƒฃSet up a dedicated work space in your home. If you have an extra bedroom, turn it into an office! โ€”and if not, even just having a designated โ€œwork stationโ€ can help you get your mind right & help create that work / life synergy vs letting it all bleed together.

2๏ธโƒฃ Proper desk ergonomics are EVERYTHING! Aka, working from your couch like I am in this pic (๐Ÿ™ˆ), will not do you, your body, or your productivity any favors! A simple google search can help point you in the right direction for proper desk ergonomics.

3๏ธโƒฃInvest in yourself, your health & your body with my new online mobility program, The ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ I created this program to help give you structure, guidance, and access to the leading mobility techniques to help you move better and kick those stubborn aches, pains and feelings of tightness to the curb โ€” all from the comfort of your home, on your own schedule.
