 Greetings!
TensegrityWant deep release of myofascia in your bodywork practice? Want to lengthen and make pliable the fascia that gives muscles shape? Want to feel fascia melt like butter under your hands?  
  

The Myofascia is the connective tissue that binds, connects and supports your muscles and bones. The pliability or thickening of your fascia determines the range of motion of your joints, the length of your muscles and profoundly effects postural patterns. Myofascial Release is an advanced form of bodywork that involves sustained stretching and warming of the fascia to induce a change in the fascial consistency. We call that change in consistency- thixotrophy.  When fascia enters a thixotropic state it becomes more pliablein nature and  can then regain its natural length and freedom.  

 

Monday and Wednesday evenings, starting January 7th, we are offering Myofascial Release I, addressing the superficial fascial layer. We have one space left. We invite you to fill it.    

 

Deep release and ease be with you,

  

Katie Mickey

Director of the Santa Barbara Body Therapy Institute
