35 - Why Tending To Our Fascia Is So Vital To Our Health with Brooke McPoyle.
Today Jody speaks with Brooke McPoyle about the body's scaffolding system - the fascia.
We talk about what it is, it's role in the body and why keeping it hydrated is so important as we age. Brooke describes her experience with Plantar Fasciitis and how often prescribed treatments are not working on the problem area. Emotions are stored in the fascia and we highlight how breath and song can help greatly in relieving the body of stress and tension.
Brooke challenges the current treatment for injury - R.I.C.E and argues why it is outdated and unsuitable for healing. She highlights the benefits of yin yoga and why it is an excellent way of working with the fascia.
This is a fascinating episode with so many aha moments.
