🎙PODCAST: Myofascial Expansions

In episode 517 of The ABMP Podcast, Rachelle and Nicole discuss a lesser-known part of the force-transmitting system of the human body: myofascial expansions—precise anatomical connections where skeletal muscles insert into fascia, not just bones. 🎧 LISTEN HERE.

The musculoskeletal system is at the heart of anatomy education for most massage therapists. But when we add the fascial system, how does that change the movement story?

✨ What you'll discover:

• How these specific fascial connections amplify muscular force
• Fascia's crucial role in proprioception and neuromuscular coordination
• Real-world examples (ever misjudge stepping off a curb? That's your fascial system at work!)

Understanding myofascial expansions helps therapists work more effectively by looking beyond individual muscles and considering the more expansive interconnected whole.
