What is Fascia? Fascia is the tissue connecting every single one of our 100 trillion cells. The first step to eliminating pain is to understand your fascia. Pain is a signal that your cells need attention. It is how they communicate that their needs aren’t being met. The body knows what the cells need at any given moment and responds to those calls by sending oxygen and nutrients in the blood. However, if you have a bunch of roadblocks in the way, the nutrients don’t reach the cell, which causes them to scream a little louder = pain. Your fascia is the communication highway between every cell. If the roadways are open and clear, there is an immediate response to a call and the body knows what to do. The challenge arises when the fascia compresses. Injury, surgery, unconscious posture, past traumas and incorrect breathing are the main reasons adhesions develop in the fascia which ultimately wind the body down. All issues in the body are largely impacted and result from compression.
Great news… You can decompress your fascia! Once you understand this, all issues in the body can change back to a healthier and more aligned version. When your cells are positioned in the right place, there is nothing blocking flow. When they migrate away from proper alignment, the body develops adhesions to create stability. It is a protective mechanism built into the fascia’s intelligence, but unfortunately, this blocks flow. This has implications for everything. Pain, aging, disease, unhealthy size and shape, anxiety, depression, sleep issues. Cells that are not aligned don’t receive what they need to thrive.
What is Block Therapy? Block Therapy is designed to undo this negative cycle of compression and re-establish balance and harmony in your body. It is designed to melt through restrictions in fascia tissue caused from aging, injury and surgery. The student lies over a therapeutic tool called the Block Buddy & Block Baby. The combination of body weight, gravity and diaphragmatic breathing creates a heating effect that melts through restrictions, improving blood and oxygen flow to cells.
