ANECDOTE

From Near-Death To Fascia Discovery

  • Ashley Black healed herself after a near-death infection and stroke that left her partially crippled.
  • She learned fascia by sneaking into a dissection class and became obsessed with its role in recovery.
INSIGHT

Fascia Is The Living Web

  • Fascia is a continuous myofascial web, not separate from muscle; muscles always exist within fascia.
  • In living tissue fascia forms a honeycomb, liquid‑crystalline structure that changes when dead or anesthetized.
ADVICE

Open Then Strengthen Fascia

  • Remodel fascia by creating space along fascial lines, not only at the pain site.
  • Use progressive tools or hands to open tissue, then strengthen it to restore function.
