We’re in this together.

My Client showing off the results of her Hardwork,

The combination of her consistent workout and weekly bodyworks treatment

The GUASHA method

Fascia Blading (also known as Gua Sha, IASTM, or Myofascial Scraping) is a soft tissue technique used to release tight fascia and improve mobility. While it doesn’t directly build or define muscles like strength training does, it can indirectly support better muscle definition through the following mechanisms:

⸻

How It Can Help Muscle Definition:

1. Improved Circulation
Fascia blading increases localized blood flow, leading to temporary improvements in muscle “pump” and appearance.
Study: A 2011 study published in the Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine found that gua sha significantly increased microcirculation in the treated area for up to 25 minutes after treatment.
(Lauche et al., 2011)

2. Decreased Inflammation/Bloating
By promoting lymphatic drainage and breaking up superficial stagnation, fascia blading may reduce swelling or water retention.
Study: A randomized controlled trial in Pain Medicine (2017) found that IASTM helped reduce chronic neck pain and local inflammation.
(D**g et al., 2017)

3. Better Muscle Activation
When fascia is tight or restricted, it can limit the range of motion and reduce neuromuscular efficiency. Blading helps restore fascial glide, improving joint mobility and muscle recruitment.
Study: A study in Journal of Exercise Rehabilitation (2016) reported that IASTM improved range of motion and muscle function in athletes.
(Kim et al., 2016)

4. Reduced Adhesions & Scar Tissue
Regular scraping can break down scar tissue and adhesions that limit mobility, making posture and muscle symmetry more noticeable.
Study: A 2013 study in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics found IASTM effective in reducing scar tissue and improving tissue healing.
(Hammer & Pfefer, 2013)

⸻

What It Can’t Do:
• It won’t burn fat or build muscle, which are the key components for long-term muscle definition.
• It can’t replace strength training, balanced nutrition, or consistent exercise.

⸻

Bottom Line:

Fascia blading is a powerful complement to your fitness and recovery routine. It reduces muscle tightness, improves movement, and supports optimal muscle function. While it won’t directly define your muscles, it can enhance the results of your workouts and promote better recovery and performance.

Trust is a risk. But so is isolation.

Growing up, I learned consciously or unconsciously that trust wasn’t always safe. Whether it was being let down, judged, abandoned, or misunderstood, those moments left invisible scars. And now, even as an adult, part of me still operates in survival mode. I overthink people’s intentions. I hesitate to open up. I keep a safe emotional distance, even from those who genuinely care.

This fear of trust shows up in my relationships in subtle ways. I may crave closeness but push people away. I might test them to see if they’ll leave or fail to meet my needs just like others did in the past. Or I’ll become overly independent, convincing myself I don’t need anyone, when deep down, I long for connection.

It’s not because I don’t want love or healthy relationships it’s because my nervous system still remembers the pain of what happened before. And healing that fear isn’t about blaming myself. It’s about acknowledging the wound, holding space for it, and slowly re-learning that not everyone is going to hurt me.

Trust is a risk. But so is isolation. And maybe, healing begins when I take small, safe steps toward connectioneven if my fear still whispers in the background.
