Innovative Pain Relief
We’re excited to offer Fascial Counterstrain (FCS), a breakthrough system of soft tissue manipulation designed to provide lasting relief from a wide range of chronic and acute conditions.
What is Fascial Counterstrain?
Fascial Counterstrain (FCS) is a gentle, hands-on therapy that releases tension in the fascia—connective tissue that surrounds muscles, bones, and organs. Unlike traditional chiropractic or physical therapy treatments that focus primarily on musculoskeletal pain, FCS treats dysfunction in multiple systems of the body, including the muscular, skeletal, vascular, and nervous systems.
This holistic approach helps relieve a wide range of conditions, from chronic pain and inflammation to more complex issues like migraines, digestive disorders, and post-surgical recovery.
How Does It Work?
FCS uses diagnostic tender points to identify painful, reflexively contracted tissues caused by trauma, surgery, poor posture, or inflammation. These reflexive contractions can occur in the deep fascia layers, muscles, or even smooth muscle structures, leading to discomfort and impaired function.
By applying gentle decompression and slackening techniques to the affected areas, FCS helps deactivate pain receptors, restore normal tissue function, and drain excess fluid, providing immediate relief. Most importantly, the treatments are painless and effective even for sensitive or delicate cases.
What Can FCS Treat?
Fascial Counterstrain is highly effective for conditions like:
- Neck, back, and shoulder pain
- Chronic headaches or migraines
- Sports injuries
- Muscle and joint pain
- Digestive disorders
- Poor circulation
- Chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia
- Post-surgical recovery
Many patients experience significant relief after just one or two sessions.
Cutting-Edge Diagnostics with Cranial Scanning
One of the most powerful tools we use with Fascial Counterstrain is the Cranial Scan, a diagnostic technique that can quickly identify dysfunction across all body systems. By motion testing certain cranial sutures, we can pinpoint the exact areas that require treatment, allowing us to address your pain more precisely.
Why Choose Fascial Counterstrain?
At WillPWR Health, we believe in treating the whole body to maximize healing potential. FCS helps your body recover naturally by normalizing blood flow, reducing muscle tension, and improving neural function. Our goal is not just to mask symptoms but to find and treat the root cause of your discomfort, providing long-lasting relief.
