In this Optimal Body Podcast episode, Dr. Jen and Dr. Dom, both Doctors of Physical Therapy, explore the science and clinical relevance of myofascial trains—continuous myofascial networks in the body. They discuss fascia’s anatomy, its role in movement and pain, and the impact of manual therapies like myofascial release. Emphasizing the nervous system’s influence, they caution against oversimplifying myofascial connections and advocate for individualized, evidence-based approaches. The hosts also review research on sling-based training, highlighting its benefits and limitations, and encourage listeners to integrate both manual and movement therapies for optimal body function and pain relief.
