Myofascial unwinding.
Slow, sustained fascial work — tissue followed rather than forced, and given the time it needs to let go in its own direction.
What it is
Rather than pressing into a restriction and waiting for it to give, the hands take up the slack in the fascia and then follow wherever the tissue wants to go. One place can hold her attention for several minutes, and your own body often makes small unprompted adjustments as it happens.
It looks like very little is going on. It is the least dramatic thing on this menu, and for some people it is what finally shifts something that firm pressure never reached.
None of this is new here — myofascial work runs through almost every session Randi does. Booking it by name means the whole appointment is spent this way.
Why book it by name
Mostly so you can say what you want before you are on the table. A generic booking gives her no way of knowing that fascial work is the thing you respond to; this one does, and the session starts there instead of finding its way there.
It also suits bodies that do not do well under deep pressure — ones that brace, guard, or ache for two days afterwards. Slow fascial work asks very little of the nervous system, so there is less to defend against.
And it suits long-held restriction: an old injury, a surgical site, or an area that has quietly reorganised itself around something. That is less a tight muscle than a pattern, and patterns respond better to being followed than to being fought.
