What Is Fascia?

Fascia is the connective tissue that surrounds and supports muscles, joints, nerves, and organs. When fascia becomes restricted, twisted, or strained, it can create pain, stiffness, and movement limitations.

Fascia connects the entire body — which is why pain in one area can sometimes feel like it’s “traveling” or hard to pinpoint.

What Is the Fascial Distortion Model?

The Fascial Distortion Model (FDM) identifies specific patterns of fascial strain based on how patients describe and point to their pain. Treatment involves targeted manual techniques to correct those distortions and restore normal movement patterns.

FDM is often more specific and focused than general massage or stretching techniques.
