Has anyone tried any of this yet?
I did many of the suggested moves and stretches 3 or 4 yrs ago, until the link broke.
They must have updated it or I just didn't understand it all the first time I found the site.

I keep reading parts that are so interesting like this-

[Fascia (connective tissue) is comprised of three main components. It contains collagen fibers (which are long thick strands of tissue layering on top of each other like a thick webbed matting), elastin fibers (which give the tissue a very minimal ability to stretch), and ground substance (which is the glue-like goop that holds it all together). Now this ground substance has a very special ability about it. It is capable of turning from solid, to gel, and back to solid based on the demands put upon it. When we have chronically contracted muscle tissue, the ground substance hardens and shrinks around the contracted musculature to help brace the area. This also happens in the form of scar tissue whenever there is an injury. It is the body's attempt to brace and support a weakened area. The trouble, however, is that this cements our problems in place. If you have been holding onto your musculature and walking incorrectly and such, the connective tissue will harden to freeze your body into this dysfunctional position. This would be necessary were you planning to continue these dysfunctional behaviors, but if you are a student of the Heal Thyself Series, our goal is to change these behaviors so we will have to alter the structure of your fascia in order to change. We will have to melt the ground substance and allow it to harden again, but this time when it hardens, it will support our bodies in the new and improved movement patterns and muscular tensions. In order to release the fascia, we will need to know some of the rules under which it operates.]

the class I of the Heal Thyself Series explains about the muscle, bone, connective tissues and how they can be changed.

There may be parts of it that will really help you , so read thru it and do some gentle experimenting- but don't force anything.
