Myofascial Release Series on Youtube!
I have recently released a complete 6-video series of Myofascial Release videos for the whole body on Youtube.
I have found huge benefits with my clients from incorporating myofascial release into my private and group yoga sessions and research indicates the following benefits:
- Stress reduction: Enhanced relaxation effects by stimulating the parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) branch of the nervous system
- Reduced pain: Improved pain regulation and reduction in pain sensitivity
- Better body awareness: Improved proprioceptive awareness (the sense of where your body is in space) and interoceptive awareness (the ‘felt’ sense of the internal experience of your body)
- Improved movement patterns: Improved elasticity and hydration of the fascia which improves mobility and range-of-motion of joints
- Better recovery and reduced injury risk: Improved lymphatic drainage and oxygenation of tissues leading to improved recovery and reduction in soreness post-exercise
- Relaxation: An increase in ‘feel-good’ hormones such as serotonin and dopamine, and a reduction in the ‘stress’ hormone cortisol
