Get the FUZZ OUT! Imagine this: You are being hugged by someone so tightly that it’s no longer a good feeling; somewhat claustrophobic. You can’t break free, you can hardly move. This is exactly what happens to your muscles and organs when the connective tissue (fascia) in your body builds up FUZZ day after day, year after year. The FUZZ settles around and into each and every muscle and organ, restricting function. The FUZZ is at work during the night when you sleep causing you to wake up feeling stiff in the morning. THE FUZZ is with you right now. If you’re not careful it can and will rule your life. Tight fascia restricts you. Restriction = lack of movement. How do you get rid of the Fuzz so you can stay flexible? Drawing from personal experience – after not exercising regularly for a few months my body started to ache. I would notice this mostly at night – my feet ached, back tight. I decided to work on a simple evening routine to release the fascia of my feet, and spine, to see if this would decrease the morning stiffness. It did. It’s easy and feels good. Try it: · Roll a tiny ball under your foot from heel to every toe a few times, then circles (or use a larger ball and roll your foot forward and back over the ball) applying a fair amount of pressure · Lying down (or standing) place Acuball along spine starting at the lumber spine (low back) and going up to the cervical (neck). Don’t have an Acuball? well you really should…ask us about it!Some more tips:
- Stretch your spine like a cat in the morning
- Sitting at a desk? stretch your arms and hands above your head
The FUZZ A term coined by anatomist Gil Headley which represents the hardening of the connective tissue in the body CONNECTIVE TISSUE (or Fascia) Surrounds and hugs every muscle and organ in our body. It is translucent, at times milky. It is tough. Similar to the tissue you pull off of a chicken breast. See Gil Hedleys video: Watch Fuzz Speech (very cool!)
