Fascial Counterstrain
A hands-on method for releasing spasm throughout the body.
Fascial Counterstrain
Fascial Counterstrain (FCS) is an innovative therapeutic, hands-on method, designed to release spasm in all tissues of the human body. Reflex muscle contractions occur in skeletal muscle, smooth muscle or in the body's deep fascia structures due to a variety of reasons including trauma, surgery, postural strain, repetitive motion, even in response to an inflammatory diet. Once this reflex spasm is triggered it can persist, and form tender points which are tender to touch. FCS works to release the tissue in spasm and the corresponding tender point by decompressing the injured structures.
