Listen to Episode 14

Deanna Hansen is a leading expert in fascia decompression, known for her fascia release techniques, fluid isometrics, and block therapy.

In this episode, you’ll learn why fascia is more than just connective tissue and how it acts as a communication network for the entire body, impacting everything from pain to posture. You’ll hear how emotions and past trauma are stored in the fascia, causing physical pain and stagnation, and how proper breathing can help release these adhesions. Deanna explains how to start working with fascia, including simple exercises to unlock the diaphragm and improve alignment, and provides practical tips on how addressing fascia can lead to improved circulation, organ function, and overall well-being.

Deanna Hansen is a pioneer in the field of fascia decompression for physical and emotional transformation and a best-selling author in the wellness space. With more than 20 years of hands-on clinical experience, Deanna created Fluid IsometricsTM and Block TherapyTM, unique fascia-release techniques to help relieve chronic pain and dis-ease, encourage healthy detoxification, and reverse the aging process.

With these simple, step-by-step protocols, you’ll combine diaphragmatic breathing and deep tissue work to release adhesions and scar tissue in the fascia, oxygenate cells, rebuild postural foundations, and, ultimately, reverse chronic structural and emotional issues.

When Deanna isn’t guiding thousands of eager students in the art of fascia decompression for optimal physical, mental, and emotional health, she’s writing best-selling books and sharing her life-changing expertise on other educational platforms.
