In this video you’ll watch Jeff demonstrating his most effective stretch for keeping the hip and quad more mobile. Doing this stretch for 5 minutes each day will help eliminate lower back pain, hip pain and tension in the quads and upper thighs.
Myofascial release is a hands-on approach to managing pain and discomfort. You should not expect lotions and oils, or a full body massage. It is important for the MFR (myofascial release) therapist to address the distorted fascia with a grip and gently manipulate pressure off of inflamed and entrapped nerves.
Traditional myofascial release has been known to be more invasive and painful, but at Webb Center Wellness, practitioner Jeff Webb, LMT, has perfected the non-invasive art and protocols for a long-lasting myofascial release technique called WebbUlating™.
If your results from a Chiropractor or Physical Therapist have not given you the relief you are looking for or have provided only temporary results, it may be time to address the fascia.
In the galaxy of your body, you are bound together, from every cell to every muscle to every bone to every organ to every nerve by fascia. Since the fascia within you is connected to everything else, that means that your low back pain could be stemming from an impingement or restriction in a nearby area like your hip flexors or glutes, or an even more distant area like your foot. Distorted fascia puts pressure on sensitive structures like nerves, causing inflammation and affects the alignment of your body. This continuity fascia structure has a huge impact on your experience of pain and your ability to perform at your best — whether you are an elite athlete, a weekend warrior, or a just a human being who wants to feel good enough to live the way you want to live.
For more information about the structure of myofascia you can watch THIS VIDEO that uses a high powered endoscope to view live fascia tissue within the body. Fascia looks like a continuous water-filled web of fibers from the top of the head to the tips of our toes penetrating every system of the body like a mesh suit. Myofascial Release is how we can manipulate it to where the distorted fascia fibers which are pressing on sensitive structures, can be released and allow increased range of motion and pain relief.
If you’re wondering why you think you have tried everything, including doctors to diagnose your pain but have not yet identified it, it could be because Doctors rarely diagnose fascia distortion. It is one of the few assessments that is still a hands-on art of body-brail interpretation that requires an expert in the field of Myofascial Release.
If your results from a Chiropractor or Physical Therapist have not given you the relief you are looking for or have provided only temporary results, it may be time to address the fascia. The distorted fascia that pulls the skeleton out of alignment must be addressed so that it does not continue to keep pulling the body back out of alignment.

Uforia Science has managed to reinvent the concept of supplemented nutrition. During this time, and at all times really, it is of the utmost importance to care for your own health and keep yourself functioning as optimally as possible. That means getting enough sleep, exercise, connection with others, healthy food, enough water and high quality nutritional supplements.
In today’s agricultural landscape it is seemingly impossible to consume enough greens and fruits to meet our basic daily needs. The soil is depleted, GMO’s are everywhere and pesticides deplete the nutrients. This means it’s more important than ever to supplement your diet with the right balance of nutrition in a recipe made just for you! Learn more at www.uforiascience.com/webbcenterwellness.
Salt Room Therapy, also known as Halotherapy – from the Greek “halos,” which means “salt” – uses dry aerosol micro-particles of salt or minerals inside of a large arid space to simulate the microclimate of salt mines. Salt exposure as a therapeutic treatment developed after 1843, when a Polish physician noticed tht his patients, who worked in salt mines, had no respirator or lung problems, compared to other miners. Salt caves began popping up around Europe as a therapy for lung ailments like pneumonia or bronchitis.
Breathing halogenated salt into your lungs and sinuses has a variety of health benefits. Not only can it help ease smoking-related symptoms such as cough, wheezing and shortness of breath, it can treat depression and anxiety, cure some skin conditions and is a non-invasive, drug free therapy for respiratory issues, detoxification and low energy. Seasonal allergies got you down? One ten-minute session in the Salt Room alleviates sinus symptoms almost immediately.
