🎙PODCAST: Myofascial Expansions
Aug 03, 2025🎧 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?
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.
✨ 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.
