Deep front line

The Deep Front Line is the body's core line of Fascia. It runs from the deep muscles of the inner foot through the inner thigh, pelvic floor, psoas, Diaphragm and front of the spine to the jaw and skull.

Route

Where the Deep Front Line runs

The line begins with the deep toe flexors and tibialis posterior under the arch, runs behind the knee and up the adductors of the inner thigh to the pelvic floor and psoas, through the Diaphragm and the Fascia around the heart and lungs, and up the front of the neck to the jaw and the base of the skull.

  • Deep neck flexors and the jaw

Why it matters

Why the Deep Front Line matters for pain and breathing

Because it passes through the Diaphragm and the psoas, the Deep Front Line links breathing, posture and the deep stability of the spine. When it tightens, people often notice shallow breathing, groin and inner thigh tightness, deep lower back ache, jaw clenching and a sense of being braced. James sees this line involved in a large share of long term pain, including fibromyalgia.

Treatment

Releasing the Deep Front Line

Deep Front Line work is slow and precise. The arch of the foot, the inner thigh, the psoas through the abdomen, the Diaphragm under the ribs and the front of the neck are released with gentle, held pressure, often combined with slow breathing.

Questions

Deep front line: questions answered

Is psoas release part of this line?

Yes. The psoas is a central part of the Deep Front Line and is treated gently through the abdomen.

Can releasing the Diaphragm help breathing?

Many people describe breathing more easily and deeply after the Diaphragm is released.

Is this line linked to stress?

A braced, shallow breathing pattern is common under stress and keeps this line tight.
