Fascia is the connective tissue that surrounds all of the cells of our body. An interactive web of communication that speaks and responds to all actions of the body. If the system is open and flowing, all cells are healthy and nourished, however we give the fascia too much to do and to correct through our unconscious posture, chronic habitual movements, incorrect breathing, and even just through gravity itself we collapse forward. The fascia responds to this trauma by trying to correct our alignment and bring us back into balance with 2000 pound per square inch pressure. These adhesions are meant to create stability. It is a protective and intelligent mechanism. However, this causes compression and restriction of the tissues resulting in PAIN. These restrictions decrease the flow of blood and oxygen to the cells which can develop over time  into disease, unhealthy size, and shape, sleep issues and even affect our mental health.

Diaphragmatic breathing is more than just taking deep breaths – it is a focused breathing style that doesn’t just bring air into lungs but spreads it to the parts of the body that need it most.

Block Therapy is suitable for all fitness levels as the positions can be adjusted to suit each users physical needs.

To do Block Therapy at home, you need either a rolled up towel to act as a block or you can purchase a Block Buddy. By purchasing a Block Buddy you also receive access to Deanna Hansen’s Block Therapy website starter kit which will help to guide you through the positions and techniques that you need. 

To purchase your Block Buddy, contact Shawna Field at shawnalfield@gmail.com
