The FaStR® Technique is a program that
speeds the release of tension within muscle and fascia by removing adhesions
and fibrotic tissue. By restoring tonus and flexibility to the muscle,
the FaStR® technique enables the client to continue activities without
pain. Repetitive strain/stress are at the center point of understanding
how overuse leads to dysfunction.
As with all myofascial release systems, FaStR® can
help relieve tension between muscles, fascia, tendons, ligaments and nerves.
Whether you’re an athlete, recovering from an injury, or simply dealing with day-to-day stiffness, FaStR is designed to support your body’s healing and performance needs.
Feel the difference after just one session.

The FaStR® Technique is a program that speeds the release of tension within muscle and fascia by removing adhesions and fibrotic tissue. By restoring tonus and flexibility to the muscle, the FaStR® technique enables the client to continue activities without pain. Repetitive strain/stress are at the center point of understanding how overuse leads to dysfunction.
Unlike standard stretching or massage, FaStR® targets the fascia layer specifically, using assisted, dynamic movements that help improve flexibility, reduce tension, and enhance overall function.
FaStR® is highly effective for treating chronic pain, tight muscles, poor posture, reduced flexibility, and injuries related to sports or daily movement.

FaStR® uses techniques rarely used together. First the restriction is removed. Using motion during this process will accelerate the healing process. Following the adhesion release, fascial stretch will be used to “concrete” those changes in. Finally, exercise instruction is used to speed the healing process, thus returning the client back to their activity as FaStR® as possible.
