Fascial Stretch Therapy, Level 2 recap WOW. What a week! Well, I was actually gone 10 days, out of the office for a whopping 14, but while I’m still riding the FST wave, I have to give a recap of my level 2 Fascial Stretch Therapy training that I just completed. I also want to…
Shoulders…. One of the most complex parts of the body. They can lift you up, but they can also drag you down if they’re not functioning properly and unfortunately, most of us have some kind of shoulder problem (and some of us may not even know it!).
