Bony junctions are where dislocations happen. So that's one of the third Bs. Avoid bony junctions because you couldn't easily dislocate because there's just less muscle mass there and you're hanging out in your joint capsules and your ligaments there. Regarding rolling in the bellies, the other thing about rolling in the bellies is...

A lot of times, like you were mentioning, there will be these hypertonic areas in people with hypermobility, and we want to be able to restore good length tension so they can really get appropriate strength in agonist-antagonist relationships. And so rolling within the muscle bellies might help us to decouple some inappropriate trigger points or inappropriate hypertonic regions.

So that's the aim. The fourth B is brace. So using contract relax techniques. You're not always trying to roll to the bone. You're not always trying to get all the way at depth. So I can do rolling that can address some of the more superficial tissues by creating a little bit of muscle bracing.

And that's going to allow me to roll superficial fascia and also to roll loose fascia transition with the deep fascia. So I can, where normally I would say contract relax, relax. to amplify parasympathetic values in most bodies.

When I'm dealing with a hypermobile person, especially let's say they have hypermobility in certain spinal segments, I actually want them to keep some amount of tension in there while they're rolling so I can get some of the benefits, some of maybe the parasympathetic benefits of rolling, but I don't want to lose some of my support benefits. So it's very personalized there.

And then, yeah, to avoiding going all the way to depth and, again, dislocating. So the bracing can be very important. Staying superficial. So this takes us back to superficial fascia. We can reap a lot of the parasympathetic benefits of rolling and the proprioceptive benefits of rolling by staying in the skin, the fatty layer, and the superficial fascia.

The majority of the sensory neurons within the nerve net That's associated with the fascial tissues. The majority of them are in the superficial fascia. And so I can get a lot of proprioceptive bang for my buck by staying on the surface. And that might be all it takes to give that proprioceptive feedback to a very loose person to improve their positioning.

So a lot of times, and this goes along with the contract relax also, a lot of the time with the very hypermobile person, they have a really hard time sensing where their joint junctions are. They blow past them, which isn't good for overall stability. I mean, they can go there and they should occasionally, but maybe not load in a really weird vector, right?

So working superficially and working with the contract relax can then heighten my proprioception of my body. And then I also say with hypermobile people, like when in doubt, don't roll it out. You can cause injury. You don't necessarily always know until it's a day too late.

But I do encourage people who are hypermobile to roll out, especially if they are the highly anxious type or also have digestive challenges. So, you know, in hypermobility, when you think about super loose people, super bendy people, it's not just the fascia that's comprised of collagen, but all of your organs are comprised of collagen. And there are...
