Want to improve your coordination? Become a better

Want to improve your coordination? Become a better dancer? Move with ease and grace? Reduce pain?

Enhancing the communication between your fascia and your brain holds many keys to the improvement of these. And just about anyone can take some easy steps to improve the condition of their fascia!

Fascia is that semi-transparent film which wraps around every grouping of cells in your body: from muscles to organs, all are sheathed in a thin but very tough layer of fascia (it looks a bit like hazy clingfilm).

➡️ Did you know there are six to ten times the density of nerve endings in fascia as compared to muscles?

➡️ Did you know that there are estimated to be 200million nerve endings in our skin, but there are estimated to be 250million in the fascia?!

Even if we are only just beginning to realise the importance of the fascia system, the brain has realised it and been using it for a long time.

Having a well-functioning fascial system is important for other functions such as proprioception, including coordination, and pain perception and management.

For all these, our fascia needs to be in excellent shape…literally! Rows of collagen fibres make up the fascia in a beautiful zig-zag line, matching the same pattern alongside their fellow fibres. This lovely regular pattern of undulations is referred to as ‘crimp’, and occurs at the scale of microfibres. Meanwhile, fascial tissue is also in regular patterns, like the diamonds of fishnet tights, all wrapped around muscles and organs in a very symmetrical (and useful) way – great for embracing and hammocking our different internal body parts, even as we move, lie, sit, or even do a handstand!

When fascia is not used though, then the collagen fibres in the fascia start to droop, become mishappen and entangled. They start to look like a bowl of spaghetti.
