"𝘍𝘢𝘴𝘤𝘪𝘢 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘪𝘨𝘨𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘳 𝘰𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘣𝘰𝘥𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘵𝘩." Anna Ray, founder of GST Body, discusses the importance of fascia and how it has been overlooked by traditional medicine and fitness. She shares her personal journey of feeling trapped in her body and the frustration of not finding answers from professionals. Anna explains that fascia is a fluid and dynamic tissue that plays a vital role in our overall health. She emphasizes the need for movement and the detrimental effects of a sedentary lifestyle on fascia. Anna also challenges the traditional approach to core strengthening and highlights the importance of maintaining fluidity and balance in the body. Fascia is an intricate system that is woven into every part of the body, functioning as an organ of every other system. It has its own organs and plays a crucial role in overall health and wellbeing. The concept of stability in the body is redefined with fascia, as it requires a different approach that focuses on movement rather than static positions. Rolling on balls or using tools like foam rollers can provide temporary relief, but the key is to change biomechanics and movement patterns to prevent stress and tension in the first place. Fascia also holds emotional imprints and can be a pathway to healing and transformation.
