Gary Brecka explains fascia as a communication network throughout your body that transports nutrients and signals. When trauma blocks it, friction builds up between muscles and nerves. Simple movements that reduce this friction can improve how your body functions.
You can cut every tendon, nerve, bone, eyeball. There's only one thing you can't remove from the human body: fascia. If you can't remove it, that would indicate that we are it.
I never have viewed the fascia the way that you view it. This connective tissue you view as a superhighway for everything from minerals, vitamins, amino acids, nutrients, to the delivery of signals to a place where we actually lock up trauma.
So what we're doing with fascial maneuvers is reducing the friction, and when we reduce the friction, all those muscles, tendons, nerves, bones, everything organizes and works better. So that changed my belief system of how to get performance out of the body.
It does inherently make a lot of sense that fascia that's connecting everything, which is also a communication system, when it gets stressed, that there's some kind of communication pathway that's interrupted there.
And I think people can benefit so much. But if you just have minerals, and you move your body like fascially, things get better no matter what it is. So in other words, it's within the reach of everybody.
For somebody that's watching this, what are some basic things that they could do to address their fascia?
Well, what we did for you is you don't start off with a problem, you start off with
