Myofascial Meridian Workshop 瑜珈療癒研習 –肌筋膜經線

Yoga is oneness. 瑜珈是身心靈統合的練習,而我們的身體也是一個整體的殿堂。過去我們經常以個別的肌肉或部分來審視身體,而忽略了它的整體關連性。在這場研習課程中,我們將以肌筋膜經線(myofascial meridians)的概念來思考我們的瑜珈練習,並學習幫助學生利用體位法來改善身體的問題。肌筋膜如同人體的神經及循環系統一樣,是一種涵蓋整個人體的網絡,並以張力效應影響及整合全身的功能性,張力失衡便容易使身心產生問題,如高低足弓、X型腿、下背疼痛、肩頸酸痛等,多與肌筋膜的張力失衡有關。

課程中我們會介紹基本的肌筋膜概念,並從淺背線(superficial back line)、淺前線(superficial front line)、側線(lateral line)、旋線(spiral line……等幾條主要的肌筋膜經線來探討瑜珈的練習與療癒。

A myofascial meridian can be defined as a linear series of muscles/myofascial units interconnected within the fascial webbing of the body . Because each myofascial unit functions to create pulling force (the essence of muscle function is that muscles create pulling forces), a myofascial meridian acts to transfer the pulling force of one muscle to the other muscles of the meridian. Further, if a muscle is stretched, the pulling force of this stretch can also be transmitted through the meridian.Therefore, a myofascial meridian is effectively a line that transmits tension (pulling) forces throughout the body. This tension transfers sequentially from one myofascial unit of the meridian to the next. Like the concept of dominoes falling, the tension created at one end of a myofascial meridian can be transferred all the way to the other end.

In this workshop, we will be using and integrating the myofascial meridian systems into our yoga asanas practice as an therapy. Topics that we going to discuss like X-legs, lower back pain, high arch (foot) and stiff neck and shoulder.

We will be reviewing the foundational information about the myofascial system in the human body and indentifies the major myofascial meridians; Superficial back line, superficial front line, lateral line spiral line and etc.
