Tight hamstrings?

Fascia, or connective tissue, envelopes every muscle, organ and bone; fascia is responsible for maintaining your structural identity. Any adhesions or shortened areas of fascia may have an adverse effect on other parts of the body.
The hamstrings region are covered by a line of fascia which runs from the bottom of the foot, up the back of each leg, along the back, and over the head. This line is responsible for maintaining spinal extension, except during flexion at the knee joint and plantar flexion at the ankle.
The bottom of the foot, or plantar surface, may be the source of many problems further up the line.
Have you ever found that when you suffered from a period of tight hamstrings or lower back pain, that you also had tightness in the soles of your feet, particularly upon rising from bed?

Plantar limitation is an issue which can be easily addresed. For more information and treatment strategies contact the coaches at Vie.
