The Fascia-Informed Therapist Podcast; Occupational Therapy, Myofascial Release, Fascial System, Posture, Movement, and More

Healing is never linear, but we do have the ability to help our clients improve their trajectory. How? Fascia science of course. By taking a wholistic approach to problems we treat regularly we can address not only the problem at hand but also underlying issues that may be slowing down progress. Empowering our clients with this information may help them heal faster and stay well. The Fascia-Informed Therapist ™ - Grounded in science. Practicing on the cutting edge. (fasciainformed.com)

As a fascia-informed™ therapist, I help build resilient clients. What does this mean? They are able to have a flare-up or even a new issue and know what to do to heal themselves. It makes my day to have a client excited to tell me they had a flare-up, but it didn't last. This week I had three. I love my practice!

My highest performing blog post was written in 2020 and has had 27.4K views! The runner up was written in 2019 and has had 17K. Neither blog is about fascia or myofascial release. However, the blog itself contains how fascia is relevant to these topics. I'm continually surprised by these statistics. People have questions about their bodies and understanding fascia can help us answer their questions. 

I recently saw a post telling therapists they didn't need to tell clients about the science behind their techniques because they don't care. Mine do. In junior high we start learning about how our bodies and all the systems within it work. Fascia is a system that gives us a more complete understanding of how out bodies work and people need to know about this system. Providing information while collaborating with your client is so important. Please talk to your clients about science but do it in a way that is relevant to them. They will care. 

As OTPs we have an opportunity to help our clients BEFORE they fall in the river. Please listen and you'll know what I mean. Thanks for all the support out there! We're sneaking up on 100 listens. I'm so grateful!

Join us as we reflect on the wonderful day we had working with therapists from Nebraska and surrounding states in our live workshop, Fascia-Informed Myofascial Release for Traditional Healthcare. Our workshops teach a variety principles of myofascial release common to many styles along with many of our own. We also teach the science of fascia, fascia wellness, and how this all informs how we shape our client evaluation and treatment process. The workshop applies all this to support the use of fascia-based science and tools in traditional settings. The Fascia-Informed Therapist ™ - Grounded in science. Practicing on the cutting edge.

The prevalence of TMD is increasing and unfortunately, many people are being unnecessarily funneled into invasive treatment options way too soon. People do not think of the TMJ as a joint that rehabilitation practitioners treat every day. We've been getting great outcomes and want to share what we do with you!

In our practice EVERY new client's posture is assessed. Posture has a profound effect on the health of the fascia. It can either put more tension in or help get it out. In this episode we'll discuss postural influences, it's importance to fascial health and how we can assess it objectively. The Fascia-Informed Therapist ™ - Grounded in science.
