What makes Fascia tighten
Fascia adapts to how it is used. Long periods in one position, repetitive movement, old injuries, surgery, dehydration and stress can all make it thicker, drier and less able to glide.

Releasing tight Fascia
Daily varied movement, slow stretches held for a minute or more, self release with a ball and hands on myofascial release all help.
Reviews
Tight fascia reviews
He explained with videos and proof exactly what was going on in my body. He told me all about fascia. I picked my right hip and thigh. Just after 20 minutes there was no pain and no stiffness.
I arrived at my first session in a lot of pain as my back had gone again and didn't really know what to expect. I walked out pain free and astounded.

Questions
Tight fascia: questions answered
Is tight Fascia the same as tight muscles?
They are linked. Fascia wraps every muscle, so both tighten together.
Does water help?
The gel between Fascial fibres is mostly water, so steady drinking and movement help.
Can tight Fascia cause pain?
Fascia is rich in nerve endings, so tight Fascia is often felt as ache.
