Self-Myofascial Release (SMR) is also known as rolling the body.
The Fascianation Method™ helps relieve immobility and pain, related to tight muscles. This is done in a specific order beginning at the bottom of the foot and ending at the back of neck.
What Is Fascia?
30 feet of small intestine
9 feet of large intestine
60,000 miles of blood vessels
45 miles of nerves
622 muscles
206 bones
360 joints
900 ligaments
80 trillion cells
All of these structures have its own fascial wrapping. Your fascia affects the function of all your body systems. Tight fascia is the root cause of most musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction.
Why the Fascianation Method?
This technique is the cutting edge of science, and endorsed by the Fascia Research Congress. Anthony Crisco is the creator of the Fascianation Method® of Self Myofascial Release and is one of the founding members of the Fascia Research Society.
Pain and injuries have no defining age and costumers are saying the effects are life changing. The Fascianation Method® of Self Myofascial Release reminds me of a cross between getting a massage and a visit to the Chiropractor. My passion is to educate and give individuals the tools they desire to be pain free for life.
The Fascianation Method® and the Fascianator® myofascial release roller are helping individuals stay mobile and end their chronic pain. The Fascianation Method® Helps to relieve:
- Carpal tunnel syndrome

More about the Fascia
Fascia was recently classified a new organ system in 2012. Fascia needs maintenance to stay healthy. Lack of movement and tissue remodeling causes fascia to stiffen, which can lead to injury. Now that we are aware that fascia interacts with the whole body, we can make a habit of seeking out activity that puts emphasis on fascial care.
{fash-uh} Fascia is the largest continuous organ in the body and consists of many layers of connective tissue that encases every muscle, bone, nerve, artery and vein, as well as, all of our internal organs including the heart, lungs, brain and spinal cord. When fascia is under or over worked, it can become gritty, dry, and stiff causing chronic pain, tight, sore muscles, headaches, numbness, tingling, and loss of flexibility.
The fascial system is not just a system of separate coverings it is actually one continuous structure that exists from head to toe without interruption. In this way you can begin to see that each part of the entire body is connected to every other part by the fascia, like the yarn in a sweater.
Myofascial restrictions that can produce tensile pressures of approximately 2,000 pounds per square inch on pain sensitive structures. A high percentage of people suffering with pain and or lack of motion may be having fascial problems, but are not diagnosed because it does not show up in many of the standard tests x-rays, myelograms, CAT scans, and electromyography.
The bodies response to SMR, improves blood and lymphatic circulation and increases range of motion in the joints. Rolling out the muscles and relaxing the fascia helps release pressure on nerves, arteries, veins and lymphatic vessels that can cause pain, numbness, tingling, weakness and inflammation.
Fascia is a specialized system of the body that has an appearance similar to a spider’s web and is very densely woven.

Stay Hydrated. The bodies fascia is made up of 4-gallons of water. It moves and works better when it is wet, so drink plenty of water throughout the day and especially when rolling.
