Let’s talk about scar tissue and how it can restrict ease of movement and cause discomfort.

Scar tissue isn’t just skin deep. Beneath the surface, it can bind and tug at your fascia (the body’s connective web) limiting your mobility and creating tension where you least expect it.

That old surgery scar? A twisted ankle? Even a C-section from years ago? These “healed” injuries can still echo in the way your body moves and feels today.

MAP Movement helps untangle those patterns. We gently create space where the body has closed in by freeing the fascia, softening old restrictions, and bringing your body back to ease.

Your best posture in your next posture😉

The body was built to move, not to brace.
⠀
Cues that ask people to “hold” or “fix” posture while moving often ignore how the body really works.
⠀
When you move your leg, your pelvis and spine should adjust - that’s natural. Stability isn’t about being still, it’s about adapting to movement.
⠀
Stability is the outcome of co-ordinated movement, not the absence of it.

Movement is medicine

Ever notice your body tenses up when life gets overwhelming? That’s your fascia responding.

Chronic stress floods the body with cortisol and adrenaline, triggering a constant “fight or flight” mode. This tightens muscles and fascia, making it stiff, less pliable, and more prone to pain or injury. Over time, this can lead to restricted movement, knots, and a body that just doesn’t feel like it used to.

Your fascia isn’t 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 physical, it’s deeply connected to your nervous system. Emotional stress and trauma can literally get stuck in your tissue.
