In this episode we are revisiting the topic of fascia with a focus on what healthy fascia feels like, what causes it to become unhealthy, and how fascia treatment and therapy can improve its health with our guest Julia Blackwell.

Julia is a fascia release practitioner, educator, and creator of The Fascia Remedy.

She was born with severe nerve damage to her right shoulder. After years of being told her condition would never improve and feeling no lasting relief from any treatments, she was introduced to a unique type of fascia release bodywork. In just 3 months of this fascia specific work, she saw more improvement in the feel and function of her arm than she had in 16 years of traditional treatments!

Her experience catapulted Julia into learning everything she could about fascia, the critical roles it plays in our movement and overall health, and how to restore it. After learning multiple modalities and working with clients for 12 years, she formulated her own approach for bodywork & foam rolling work called The Fascia Remedy. Using this methodology, she's been able to solve her own bouts of low back, knee, and neck pain in a matter of days, as well as help others quickly alleviate pain, restore movement, and perform at their best.

Julia has captivated a community of thousands with her unique bodywork, her fresh take on foam rolling, and her approach to discovering the root source of their pain. Her combination of fascia release, postural alignment, and mindset magic has earned her the nickname “The Pain Relief Wizard" from her community of both professional athletes and everyday movers.
