π§Fascia Hydration Protocol
This protocol supports fascia viality through intelligent hydration β integrating water, movement, and timing to restore tissue elasticity and systemic flow.
Integrating water
Fascia is like a sponge β it only becomes pliable and functional when hydrated, and hydration must be both systemic (water) and mechanical (movement).
1. Water Intake (Systemic)
π₯€ Drink 30β35 ml/kg body weight per day
Example: 60 kg person β ~2.0β2.1 liters/dayπ§ Sip throughout the day β donβt chug
π§ Add a pinch of unrefined salt or electrolyte powder 1β2x/day to support cellular uptake (especially if on magnesium)
2. Hydrating Movement (Mechanical)
This means slow, multidirectional, and rhythmic movement that massages water into the fascia.
Movements explained
Fascia Flossing Gentle tension/release across tissues (like slow yoga with resistance) Morning or post-warmup
Bounce/Shake (Rebound) Light bouncing (on heels, or mini-trampoline) to stimulate lymph & hydration1β2 min daily (especially morning)
Rolling (Hydrated Fascia Release) Soft foam rolling (not deep tissue), especially on calves, IT band, and back3β4x/week, post-hydration
Pandiculation Cat-like stretching (yawn + twist) β neurologically resets tension Upon waking & before sleep
Walking Daily 20β30 mins with varied terrain Essential to pump water through fascial lines
π Movement and Timing Plan (Simple Routine)
Daily Morning (5β10 min):
Bounce lightly for 60β90 sec (on feet or trampoline)
Pandiculate: big yawning-style stretches with twists
Fascia floss: 2β3 long gliding stretches (e.g., overhead arm reaches, cross-body pulls)
2β4x per Week:
15β20 min fascia hydration flow (slow yoga, Feldenkrais, or myofascial stretching)
Soft foam rolling or self-massage (after water and movement)
daily walk 20-30 min
π Combine with Your Supplements
Take supplements with water.
Move gently within 20β30 mins of taking magnesium to amplify its effect on soft tissue relaxation.
Walk or stretch after CoQ10 to support mitochondrial repair.
