How FST Relieves Back Pain in Nashville
Unlike massage (which targets muscles) or chiropractic (which adjusts spine alignment), Fascial Stretch Therapy addresses your fascial system—the connective tissue web that, when restricted, pulls on your spine and creates chronic pain.
Joint Capsule Decompression
We start at the joint capsule level using gentle traction, releasing restrictions that traditional stretching can't reach. This is critical for Nashville residents with chronic lower back pain.
Fascial Release
FST targets fascial adhesions pulling on your spine. By releasing these restrictions, we remove the root cause of pain—not just treat symptoms.
PNF Techniques
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation engages your nervous system, allowing deeper releases than passive treatment. Your body actively participates in its own healing.
Long-Lasting Results
FST changes persist for 2-3 weeks because we retrain your fascial system and movement patterns. Nashville clients spend less time in treatment, more time living pain-free.
