Block Therapy is coming to Maroon Creek Club

You may be asking yourself what is Block Therapy? The main objective of Block Therapy is to release Fascia. Now you may be asking yourself; what is Fascia? Fascia is the tissue which connects all of our cells. It is a head to toe, inside and out, all encompassing system of fibrous connective tissue found in the body. Your fascia provides a framework that helps support and protects muscle groups, organs, and the entire body. Some fitness professionals refer to it as being the

glue that holds our bodies together. In Block Therapy students lie over a therapeutic tool called the “Block Buddy”. Putting your body weight into the block and holding it there releases the fascia which creates more space in the body which helps to heal and prevent injuries. In Block Therapy there is also a lot of emphasis put on breathing deeply. Breathing deeply brings additional oxygen to the body which is also an important part of healing. Sandy Baker will be instructing the class which will begin in November. STAY TUNED for more information to follow!
