I noticed that I could lift my arms higher after doing this. REally great. Thank you.
very cool!
I taught myself all this over, now, 49 years of dealing with fascial constriction misdiagnosed as carpal tunnel with acute sciatica (accurate). I made myself the tools you've shown and more, and bought a TheraCane in the mid-'80s. Following along with you, I picked up the TheraCane right away to save my hands. I was still working on my traps and rhomboids when you got back to scalenes. 🙂 Only this morning did I search for "fascial constriction" and got your clip. I'm glad I did.
Great. I’m glad it was useful for you.
You are a wonderful teacher, your voice is soothing and relaxing to listen too. The sunshine is lovely, we've only seen it once in the last week here. Thank you
Thank you for the kind words. Enjoy!
Loved doing this. Really helped.
Thank you, Dr. Ariele Foster.
You are welcome :)
Thank you! I stretch a full program daily and make progress everywhere but these areas where it feels the same every time so i am stoked to try everything here... Thank you algorithm! I relaxed just watching you do it i know for sure it will work! Watching for something to fall asleep to.. your whole energy is relaxing too! Healthy vibes... Subscribed! I think i can make a back roller like that in my shop... Never seen anything like that... I must have it! Bless you!
Thanks so much for watching.
Really helpful! Thanks you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for the tips. I’ve used the wall/ball technique for years, but had forgotten I could also apply to the front of the body.
Sometimes it’s the simple things!
The first head exercise and last one opened my ears and sinuses! The stuff in the middle was helpful as well, thanks.
very cool. thanks for sharing.
So happy to have found you and your work.
Glad to be of service :)
Thank you, i really needed that.
Excellent, I learned so much, I have most of the tools, thank you for directions on how to use them!
Wonderful! I'm always happy to share more ideas.
Amazing how only the breathing with the upper part helps a lot! you're the best, thank you :)
this is fantastic to hear. The simple things make a huge difference, yea?
@@Ariele.Foster trying to fix my TMJ which goes down my neck etc.. is quite a challenge! I wish you were near do I'd go to your classes! :) Ever go up to Yale or nearby by any chance?
@@DebKS don't have any plans to teach there at the moment, but I'd be happy to arrange a workshop weekend if a studio hosted me. I have a neck video on this channel if you havne't found it, I recommend it!
@@DebKS How's your TMJ and neck stuff these days? I am not offering telehealth, by the way, if that works for you: happyandwell.janeapp.com
It worked perfectly. Thanks for the information.
glad to know. Thanks for watching.

Hello Lady, SO grateful for your work and many thanks for sharing! If you have never tried the Muscle Hook, grab one...I have a feeling you will deeply love it!😊 Gratitude and respect🙏
Wonderful. I think those are the same things as Thera-Canes, so I totally know all about them!
Physical Therapy & Yoga Therapy with Dr. Ariele Foster Ah! Yes! I should have known you already went down that road😊 Many thanks again!🙏
Loved this
Thanks for practicing!
My neck thanks you!
awesome.
Incredibly helpful! Thank you! 🙏🏻
you are welcome :)
Wow! Had never heard of a miracle ball, and I can't wait to try the pectoral techniques. The RAD ball (I love mine!) is a little too hard for that area for me. Thank you - awesome cueing and explanations!
I love how soft the Miracle balls are! You'll love them.
Thank you...🌱🙏
You are so welcome!
Nice! I can do this at work :)
hopefully you have an office door that closes or some very cool colleagues :)
Love it! Thank you, Ariele!!
You are welcome, Trish!
This was amazing!
Thanks for trying it, Linda.
Thank you 🙏 feels amazing
thanks for taking it!
Dr. Foster’s soo bae omg 😍
You’re great!
thanks!
Thank you! I can feel my neck muscles melting.
hehe.
Great video...I’ve got really bad trigger point in my pec minor I think it’s grabbed nerve in brachial plexus...I’ve gotta fix cuz it’s really uncomfortable
good luck! let us know if this works :)
Is this applicable for myofascial pain syndrome?
I am unable to give any sort of medical advice through the comment section ;), however, it is as safe as massage -- perhaps safer because you are in control of the pressure.
Geeee,,,, I guess I've mistaken "stretching" all these years... never knew that it was called "yoga" !
I know this was 4 yrs ago but have you heard of block therapy? They use a block similar to the hard yoga blocks but theirs is rounded. It's expensive but I wanted to know if using your tools are just as good for fascia release. Thank you
I have not heard of it but I looked it up and don’t think it is doing the same thing at all. I’m a fan of soft massage tools
@@Ariele.FosterI just read about your course. I'm going to sign up. I have the optp roller & another roller with spikes plus 2 soft balls, which I never use. I never use the roller bc it kills everywhere on my body. I used the spoke roller tonight for 1 hr & did 3 min holds in the areas that are so sore. When I would go back to that area 10 min later it was not even relieved. It still killed me. I guess this is years of built up fascia. And I have been getting regular deep tissue massage & acupuncture for years. I am always tight & sore when pressure is applied. I hope working the fascia more with your course will be the answer to release all this tension. Thank you
I hope you really enjoy it and get a lot out of it. Let me know if you have any questions as it progresses. Thank you for joining!
@@Ariele.Foster was my fascia not releasing because it's been stuck for so many years? Will I need to do your program daily in order to feel a release?
@@michy2630 In general I recommend daily movement, but not usually daily self massage, unless someone is rehabilitating from injury or sometimes for chronic pain. As far as individual recommendations, for your exact situation, feel free to book a one on one session with me at happyandwell.janeapp.com
I’m stuck in a slouched posture. If noticed that my thoracic spine is incredibly stiff and locked up. To stand up straight I started to over arch my lower back which made it worse
Hi there, do you know why it gets so locked up? What else have you tried? I recommend seeing a physical therapist ("Physiotherapist" outside of the United States). There is a genetic condition that can cause some folks to have a very rigid upper back.
@@Ariele.Foster I’ve tried everything they just have me do generic exercises
@@Rokia2003 If you want to see me on video / telehealth, you can book here: wellilo.janeapp.com
When I move my head like this I hear crackling. Is that the fascia loosening? Is it good?
TIA ❤
cracking is usually a sign of synovial joint pressure change -- not fascia at all. A physio exam can help clarify if this is a sign of some other problem or not.
I’ve tried yoga, massages and stretching, foam rolling and even a.. my traps and shoulders get very tight along with my upper back.
Could fascia be the reason why? I will try these later today and let you know it goes!
Maybe. Or you may want to get your neck and shoulders and upper back evaluated by a physical therapist / physiotherapist. I think waaay too many people suffer with upper trap tightness for years without getting the neck testing and strengthening they deserve.
@@Ariele.Foster Okay, thank you so much for the fast reply!
Will definitely do that!
Do you have an instagram i can contact you at regarding some fascia release questions?
Let me know, thanks!
@@proctaa I do online telehealth consultations or yoga private sessions: happyandwell.janeapp.com to book - outside of that I am not able to offer individual advice.
My grandson pole vaults and suffers shin splint pain. Do you have help for shin health.
Coach Chong Xie on UA-cam works with athletes and fascia. Very good results with shin splints.
Shin splints are typically a result of hard heel strike when running or landing. The way to prevent is lower leg and core and softer jump training. You would also want to rule out a tibial stress fracture in someone who pole vaults. A physical therapist can guide through all of this. To book online sessions with me: wellilo.janeapp.com
Is the course still available
The course, Way of the Happy Fascia, is still available at my.yogaanatomyacademy.com/courses/way-of-the-happy-fascia - Fascia Release for Yoga is not publicly available any more but you can reach out to info@yogaanatomyacademy.com if you'd still like to take it and someone will direct you how.
I have soo many knots it's crazy. I can't get to most of them 😢
sorry to hear that. Consider focusing less on knots and more on what you are capable of. See a physical therapist if you are in pain.
You should really start the video by indicating all of the "tools" required...you lost me at the 2nd one!
I listed the tools in the description: Tools that I use by Rad Roller:
- Recovery Round - amzn.to/2FEzFUm
- Rad Rollers - amzn.to/2Ww26cL (I like green the best)
- Helix - amzn.to/2WlWO3o

"Yummy"? You just lost me. I'm going to search for someone who takes it more seriously.
MANY practitioners talk about "yummy" movement. Where have you been?
@@jalemairliha Obviously not. I have never heard this until now. You go ahead an enjoy that type of terminology if you prefer. We all have choices, and are free to exercise such freely.
