Tech Neck, C Sections, and Trapped Trauma: How Fascia Is Quietly Aging Women Faster with Deanna Hansen

Biohacking with Brittany

What if your "tight shoulders," stubborn belly, or tech neck are not random… but compressed fascia quietly starving your cells of oxygen and storing old trauma?

Certified Athletic Therapist and Block Therapy founder Deanna Hansen joins me to unpack fascia as the missing link between pain, posture, trauma, and how we age over time.

We talk about what fascia actually is, why compressed tissue starves your cells of oxygen, and how simple breath and block based practices can change your body shape, pain, and nervous system at any age.

As a postpartum mom healing a C section scar and long nights of breastfeeding, I also ask Deanna exactly what women can do to restore their core, release stored trauma, and feel lighter in their bodies again for the long term.
