Fascia Release & Beyond is an integrated workshop where we will spend 2 days learning about fascia release, the integration of foam rolling, yoga positions, and stretching postures. We will dive deep into the energetics of fascial release, as well as the emotional causation and SOMATIC release that working with the fascia brings to all of us. Come join me and dive deeper into the beautiful art of healing as we discover the depths and wonders of the fascia world.
Learn how to use your hands as you facilitate healing of the body by activating your inner physician and up-leveling the immune system. Maria will teach the tools of fascial release in a simple and easy fashion. Everyone in class will be partnered up, using massage tables, to learn techniques for the following parts of the body: head, neck, shoulders, upper back, rib cage, organs, low back, hips, legs, knees and ankles. Learn how to relieve pain and activate the immune system by unblocking the meridian system along with releasing old physical and emotional trauma. This workshop is for all who want to experience and deepen in their self love and healing journey.
