@giller198 Yes, fascial work takes time to work through the layers. I've done this for 3 years for thoracic outlet syndome and have made a lot of progress, but still have a long way to go. MY PT had an opinion about the fascia blaster and said it was too aggressive and had caused injuries and lawsuits. If you tear the fascia, you'll create scar tissue which just makes it worse and binds it together. That is why it must be gentle and sustained to release fascial layers without tearing them. I'm not familiar with the Bowen technique. Keep at it, and ask what you can do at home to help. FYI- it takes a hands on training to learn how to do this well. If you don't find that wit the PT you're seeing, you might want to look for an expert level trained person. I don't think someone can just read about it, and then understand how to do it as it constantly changes directions and what you do one day may be entirely different than the next.

Well, forget the fascial blaster. The therapist I saw last week worked some using the Bowen Technique. It kind of uses a gentle approach like fascial. The therapist is going this week for more training. I go for session two in the morning. Have a good one.
