Since attending the West Coast College of Massage Therapy, I have been interested in connective tissue and the treatment and release techniques of the 3D web like structure of Fascia. In 2012, I started to focus my work on the Tensegrity model of the human body after experiencing the effects CoAT Method had on my stubborn soft tissue injuries sustained from a car accident. CoAT(Course of Applied Tensegrity) works with the tension and integrity of the Fascial system. There are no isolated parts to a Tensegrity unit, the entire system responds as a whole. CoAT is a tool to provide gentle yet deep, effective work to regain and maintain ease and fluidity in the body while deepening the relaxation response, decreasing pain, and restoring a sense of general well-being. CoAT principles can be integrated with common massage techniques to provide longer lasting results. The understanding of fascia is essential to the dance between stability and movement – crucial in high performance, central in recovery from injury and disability, and ever-present in our daily life from our embryological beginnings to the last breath we take.
