Jill Miller: Increase Flexibility & Relieve Pain with Breathwork & Myofascial Release

Yeah. I mean, it's fine. Yeah. But I think if you really want to be in control of this remodel of yourself, you want to be aware. You want to remain aware and pick up on both the subtle and gross sensations that are percolating from these different sensory neurons at different levels within your tissues.

Yes. So your fascial tissues have the ability to move in every direction. They're vectored in every possible angle all throughout your body. So just squishing them is beneficial, but only squishing them is leaving out the possibility of offloading them or tractioning them in the opposite direction. Right.

So this suction type of thing that a cup can do is just so amazing because it can allow a gapping to occur from bone to skin rather than you just pressing in from skin to bone. And that can relieve a lot of over-compression tension or possibly you have โ€“ And some adhesions or agglomerations that can't be helped at a certain vector.

And so doing techniques like I say in the role model, we do this thing called pin, spin, mobilize. And this is a term that I picked up from Kelly.

right? And so what we're doing is we're using one of the soft balls or any, we can really do this with any tool as long as it has grip, and you place it into your tissue and you spin it, you twist it, you wrangle the tissue until you feel there is a tolerable pinch. Once you have that tolerable pinch, just think about that. That's a vortex of tissue that's whirled into the tool that

So tremendous amount of stretch. And then from there, you attempt to move the tool or move your body right, left, back, forth. And so then that's moving that twisted knot in a variety of different ways. When I say knot, I don't mean like a muscle knot. It's the twisted skin, superficial fascia, loose fascia, and possibly deep fascia at that level that we're getting all this traction.

And then when you release that, there'll be a ton of perfusion. There'll be a whoosh of warmth. and this sudden onset of range of motion improvements that's local to that joint. So if I were doing that on the rib cage, you will have such dynamic breaths after that. So the pin spin immobilized, that includes this...

vector called shear right so shear is where we're getting basically horizontal stretch but you know cupping cupping is is an additional local traction that really stretches skin superficial fascia all the retinacular cutis and then can even grip into deep fascia and create a force vector maybe even to the periosteum so that's the skin the fascial skin around the bones

And there are, of course, nerve endings and blood vessels all the way at depth that are being teased in a novel way that they're not getting day to day. Because most of gravity is pushing us into ourselves instead of, like, I mean, there's a good reason. Like, we don't want to float off of ourselves. But just think of that.
