How fascia pain feels

People describe a deep, diffuse ache rather than a sharp point, stiffness that eases with movement, a band of tightness, burning or pulling, and pain that moves from place to place.

Why Fascia can hurt

Research has found that Fascia is richly supplied with sensory nerve endings, including some that sense pain. The thoracolumbar Fascia of the lower back is one of the most densely innervated sheets in the body.

Why it moves around

Fascia is continuous from head to toe, so strain in one area is passed along its lines. Pain can appear in the back one week and the neck or hip the next.

Treatment

Myofascial release, gentle movement and self release aim to restore glide in the tissue. See your GP about pain that is severe, getting worse, or comes with other symptoms.
