Inventors:

David Rubenstein - Westminster CA, US

International Classification:

A61H 99/00

US Classification:

601 1

Abstract:

A method for treatment of compressed fascial tissues on the human body comprising a two part process. The first part comprises a treatment of fascial tissues around the cranium and the second part comprises a treatment of fascial tissues along the torso and limbs. The first part administers a method of palpation to tactilely identify areas of compressed fascial tissue and treats identified areas using compressive and tractional forces applied to the area perpendicularly to one another until compression is released. The second part includes a sequences of stretching postures that elongate the tissues in the torso and limbs further relieving the body of compressed tissues. The second part is aided by use of an orientation device that provides reference points for commencement of a stretching posture and for directing movement thereafter. A platform device is also included for promoting a stretching posture and a balancing aid is provided for supporting the weight of the torso during select exercises.
