A very nice little piece out of an article written by kerry Ridgway
“We are all familiar with fascia as that shiny layer covering a muscle, but it is so much more. This connective tissue substance covers even the tiniest muscle fibers, called fascicles, and forms ligaments, periosteum and joint capsules. Every organ in the body, including the brain, is encapsulated in this unique connective tissue. It actually provides and determines the shape and volume of each organ.”

It just shows us how deep fascia runs . Its not just one little layer under the skin but a deep tissue that wraps the tiniest nerve , tissue that gives organs shape and keep them safe in a pocket. It reaches deep into every muscle cell ! Fascia is truly the thing of the future in terms of Muscle tension release.

Im once again adding this beautiful picture of fascia from a horse cadaver’s leg .

A very interesting machine to use with the fascia release is the Blackroll foam roller and booster all the way from Germany ,where the blackroll company work very closely with fascia researchers to make amazing products that work directly on fascia . This machine allows me to get amazing releases and results in places unreachable by hand or other products. How does this vibrations help for fascia ????
Your body contains different receptor cells the two im focusing on when treating with the blackroll machine is the Pacini Receptors and ruffini receptors, these receptors pick up on the frequency of the vibration and soon starts decreasing these frequencies by relaxing the inner layer of the connective tissue(fascia )and thus creating a softening and release of the tight sore tissue . How amazing is that !

What are Neurogenic Tremors ?
Most of us have experienced involuntary shaking ,such as that feeling you get when you are hyper excited or for example had a hard workout session and your legs or arms shake fast and uncontrollably.

These tremors are the bodies way of calming itself down from that super aroused or excited adrenaline state . The muscles make contractions and relaxations actions to discharge excessive tension .

Tremors can be described as a massage from inside the body all these contractions turn the muscle into this super soft light ,feathery, tingly feeling .

What do Tremors do ? They shut down the central nervous system’s automated hyper-aroused fight or flight or freeze response by creating a vibration of contraction and relaxation that releases built up energy in certain areas .

Here is a beautiful photo of a few very light tremors from a client horse.
