Why is healthy fascia important?

Healthy fascia is important because it is found in all the “white space” in the body and is responsible for the health of the cells. It surrounds and penetrates all the structures of the body, and when it is not functioning (tight, thick, disorganized) it can cause many problems in our health.

Are fascia and cellulite related?

Merriam Webster defines Cellulite as “deposits of subcutaneous fat within fibrous connective tissue (as in the thighs, hips, and buttocks) that give a puckered and dimpled appearance to the skin surface”. Well, guess what fascia is…connective tissue!

Does the FasciaBlaster® cause bruising?

Yes, bruising can be expected. If you have any unanticipated changes in your body or to your health, consult with your FAA (Fascia Advancement Academy) Certified Therapist.

Can I use the FasciaBlaster® if I’m on blood thinners or have blood clots?

No, we do not recommend it. If you are on blood thinners or have a history of blood clots, consult your trusted healthcare professional about using the FasciaBlaster. We do not endorse use by anyone who is taking blood thinners or has a history of blood clots. Any use of the FasciaBlaster or any Blaster product is at your own risk.

Does it hurt?

If your tissue is sensitive it may be uncomfortable when you start. Healthy tissue doesn’t hurt, so ease in and go at your own pace. It will become progressively more pleasant with consistency.

Fasciology is a science that is centered around the system of the body known as fascia. This is a unique field of medicine because, in the study of Fasciology, the genesis anatomy and physiology are different. Instead of learning the traditional model of individual body parts like muscles, bones, nerves, organs, and so on, a Fasciologist’s perspective from day one starts with the fascia. A Fasciologist’s fundamental understanding of human anatomy begins with knowledge and perspective that fascia is the first cell of life, the zygote, and a human being develops within the framework of the fascia system. Their approach to human health and performance, as well as beauty and anti-aging, is fascia-centric. Because of this commencement, the field of Fasciology approaches preventive and regenerative medicine from a completely different vantage point than a traditional medical field such as Physical Therapy, Orthopedics, Neurology, etc.

When a Fasciologist designs treatments, the focus is to restore the entire fascial system, not just the part of the body that may be presenting with pain. Even with fascia becoming “trendy,” fascia treatments are not something that should be added to a doctor or therapist with classical training’s arsenal. Massaging fascia in an isolated area or looking to the fascia to create symmetry is an incomplete model to a Fasciologist. For a Fasciologist, fascia treatments are the epi-center of the understanding, and treatments are fascia-centric. A Fasciologist approaches health believing that if the fascia is healthy, everything else is healthy.

Ashley Black is a decorated inventor, thought leader, and entrepreneur. She is best known for her work in the field of Fasciology. Fasciology is the study of the system of the body called fascia. Fascia is publicly known as the connective tissue, or web, that holds our body together, but fascia is also the dense system that surrounds and feeds every cell in our bodies. Black’s work is directly related to the regeneration of this system of the body and the astounding effects this process can have on beauty, sports performance, and medical conditions.
