Fascia Flossing 101: Essential Insights with Bonnie Crotzer

If you thought mycelium networks were fascinating and magical, the body’s fascia matrix is truly next level. Today, I’m joined by Bonnie Crotzer, dancer turned fascial flossing guide, to discuss just how interconnected fascia is to our entire being and how we can return it to its optimal state.  

Did you know that fascia is an amazing fabric that links everything in the body? Bonnie explains what fascia is and why it’s so important (and cool!) in an easy-to-digest way. Her deep knowledge and passion for the body and how it functions is incredible. Since fascia is a conductor of electricity, the more you move your body, the more electricity you make. The science of fascia demonstrates why movement is key to strong mental health and radiant spirit.

Fascial flossing is a way to reconfigure fascia back to its healthiest state. This is achieved by engaging your muscles while you elongate, allowing the body to work on a deeper level than just stretching. This is important for the body to build strength and stability for everyone, from the hypermobile to the hyper stiff. 

Bonnie encourages self-practice to begin fascia flossing and working with one-on-one practitioners or getting a lymphatic drainage massage as next steps. Caring for your fascia ensures that you maintain good circulation, which means little or no pain in the body, better oxygenation, full nutrient absorption, and adequate waste removal. There are so many benefits across digestion, the immune system and mental health, why not get flossing today?
