This is almost always what I have to ask myself these days, and moreso on the big things. > ------------------------- I should clarify something here. Emotional Releases/Unwindings are the exception, not the norm, unless you are talking about a myofascial release unwinding. An MFR unwinding can be deliberately induced to help release a fascial restriction. The main concern I would have in this case is to be sure that the restriction isn't there in the first place to compensate for something like a weak joint. This is why you want to see someone who understands about hypermobility. An emotional release/unwinding is an entirely different category. You don't consciously go in and say, " well, I think I will have an unwinding today. " It doesn't work that way. The body does it on its own when it is ready to have it done. And if it happens, it happens because it needs to happen for your body to heal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
