Could fascia flossing really help with the processing of grief? One writer gave it a go.
, has been working with fascia for years, drawing on Ida Rolf’s bodywork that focused on reorganising connective tissues. She likens her fascia flows to “flossing plaque”. “Just like you would floss your teeth, you want to floss your tissues to help move emotional energy through us,” she says. I decide to give some virtual flossing a go and delve into Crotzer’s YouTube archive over the course of a week.
Simply by applying pressure to the forearm in front, it intensifies the move tenfold, and I can feel a knot immediately start to melt away. Then there’s a wide low lunge position, in which your front leg is at a 45° angle rather than straight in front of you. The trick here is to flex your forward foot and pull your heel into the ground as you rock back and forth to floss out your hamstring – and I feel it deep into my hip.
