Fascia can become tight or restricted due to injury, stress, poor posture, repetitive movements, or inflammation, creating “trigger points” (knots) that cause pain, limited mobility, and referred discomfort elsewhere in the body. During your session:

• Your therapist assesses posture, movement, and areas of tension.

• They apply slow, sustained pressure to restricted spots-no lotion or oils are typically used, so the therapist can traction and feel the tissue response directly.

• As the fascia softens and releases, you may a gentle stretching sensation or “productive” releases (sometimes mild discomfort that quickly eases).

• The therapist may stretch or move limbs lightly to encourage release.

The therapist listens with their hands: warm palms, maybe an elbow- gliding slowly, enough pressure to feel the fascia’s stubborn tug before the release. No forceful digging, no oils-just steady holds with traction of the fascia tissue-encouraging the body to release, melt, and let go-the body sighs. You might feel coolness/warmth spread, tissue fluttering or maybe a slight buzzing as we reconnect the fascia communication highways within your body. It’s quiet, kind, and oddly….powerful. We finish with gentle stretches so the shift stays.

Many clients describe it as deeply relaxing yet profoundly corrective—different from a standard massage because it targets the underlying connective tissue network that influences everything from movement, energy, and pain levels .
