Problems linked to Fascia

Fascia is a system of flexible connective tissue surrounding everything in the body. If the system is supple and running smoothly, all is fine, but when some parts become stiff, tense or inflamed, there will be consequences.

Many problems can be linked to the Fascia since it is such a critical part of our metabolism, stabilizing function, musculoskeletal system, has a force-transferring effect as well as helps us know our position.

The Fascia’s status affects our general health and the well-being of the body. A fault may give troublesome pain conditions that are difficult to get out of.
