Fascia Adhesions (aka knots or sticky spots in muscle)
•

Some examples of fascial adhesions in the trap area (the first two pics are different ones I found). Caused by overuse of muscle with not enough rehab, poor posture or movement, or injury. The last pic shows what it looks like when your muscle/fascia has adhesions and you can see how it affects other areas aside from the part that’s actually knotted up. This is why if a client comes to me with pain in one area, I might not even touch that area and look for where their pain could be stemming from. After a few mins of cupping, the muscle loosens up to the proper length and goes back to normal 🤩

A lot of pains are from over use and will take multiple sessions and consistency with rehab to fix. Stay informed loveones 💥💎 @ Apply Pressure Athletx

It keeps your muscles healthy, brings awareness to your entire body, and increased flexibility. One of the best ways to prevent injury is to stay flexible 🔑✨Embrace the pain — that’s where the growth is 🤞🏼 @ West Oakland, Oakland, California
