Does The FasciaBlaster* Really Work?
YES, the FasciaBlaster has Emerging Research Aimed at Expanding Our Understanding
The FasciaBlaster* tools do exactly what they claim to do: regenerate 1 fascia tissue. You don’t need anyone’s opinion to know if this is true; we have empirical data and hundreds of thousands of testimonies of real-life users, but let’s clear up any confusion about what a FasciaBlaster does.
When answering the question, Does the FasciaBlaster really work, we need to ask what does the FasciaBlaster actually do? Despite its popularity as a “cellulite stick,” the FasciaBlaster was never designed for cellulite*; it was created for the system of the body called fascia, which we will get into later in the blog. So let’s answer the probably most asked question: Does the FasciaBlaster work for cellulite? The answer is yes 1,2,3. You can read all about it here and browse tons of pics here. The reason there is this cellulite-fascia association is that the more sophisticated understanding of cellulite is that it is caused by unhealthy fascia. According to the Cleveland Clinic, cellulite is “collections of fat that push against the connective tissue beneath your skin.” The connective tissue is just another name for fascia, so while most cellulite treatments are geared at the fat, the FasciaBlaster* has always been engineered to palpate the connective tissue. Check out the controlled lighting pics with their corresponding ultrasounds from the clinical study performed using our tools.*
The topic of cellulite is what the media globbed on to when we launched the FasciaBlaster. That, and many very excited women raving about us from the rooftops.

But at Ashley Black, we enjoy talking about how healthy fascia tissue is linked to things like autoimmune disease, inflammation, 1 helping someone in pain, 4 or helping with the longevity of sports careers ,5 which we talk about in many of our blogs. We get most excited about our scientific discoveries and teaching our knowledge and techniques to professionals at The Fascia Advancement Academy.
So, let’s move on from “Does the FasciaBlaster really work” to HOW the FasciaBlaster really works? Spoiler alert: It’s really just common sense.

CopyCat Vs. Peer-Reviewed Science: The Truth
About Fasciology and The FasciaBlaster
Amidst the rise of buzzworthy fascia-related trends, it's essential to recognize the distinction between the genuine science of Fasciology and fascia-derived solutions vs. marketing-driven misrepresentations. The confusion arises from a historical oversight of fascia in anatomy and literature. Fascia was only mentioned in passing, like in references to “plantar’s fascia,” or “thoracolumbar fascia” which grossly understates its true significance.
In the world of modern medicine, fascia has been hidden inside a “cryptic code” of sorts because of all of the alternative names it has been called by different schools of medicine. Some of the fascia’s nicknames include:
It was recently described in a scientific paper by the National Institute of Health by saying: 6
“Fascia is a covering, with common origins of layers of the fascial system despite diverse names for individual parts. Fascia assists gliding and fluid flow, holds memory, and is highly innervated. Fascia is intimately involved with the nourishment of all cells of the body, including those of disease and cancer.”
Fascia’s significance transcends mere “sheath” terminology, as it plays a multifaceted and vital role in the body’s overall function and well-being. 6The worldwide medical industry reflects this, as more and more people are turning to this new definition of fascia and holistic medicine to seek new bio hacks! With the emergence of the FasciaBlaster, as a prominent player in this multi-billion-dollar industry 7, it is more crucial than ever to sift through the noise and misinformation to understand exactly why FasciaBlasters* are different!
Unveiling The Scientific Insights Of The FasciaBlaster*
A Deeper Look at the Scientific Findings
The Peer Reviewed and Published study was meticulously designed to assess the impact of FasciaBlasting on different physiological markers and conditions in a group of 33 adult women. The study aimed to provide definitive insights into the validity of the claims surrounding this practice. Here's a detailed breakdown of the significant findings that emerged from this study:
-
FasciaBlasting Lowered The C-reactive Protein (CRP)
C-reactive Protein, a crucial blood marker associated with systemic inflammation, exhibited a noticeable decrease during the course of the study. The most remarkable reduction was observed within the initial 30 days of FasciaBlasting. This outcome offers a ray of hope to individuals dealing with inflammation-related challenges and highlights the potential of FasciaBlasting to contribute to the reduction of inflammatory markers.
-
FasciaBlasting Increased PICP Markers for Collagen Production
A pivotal aspect of the study was the observed increase in PICP markers, indicative of enhanced collagen production. Collagen, accounting for 30% of the body's protein composition, is vital in providing structural support and strength to various bodily tissues—from skin and muscles to bones and connective tissues. The upsurge in collagen production underscores the potential of FasciaBlasting to impact the body's regenerative processes positively.
-
FasciaBlasting Enhanced Serum Irisin Levels
The study revealed a significant elevation in Serum Irisin Levels—a hormone typically associated with High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT). This finding suggests that FasciaBlasting may trigger physiological responses similar to those induced by vigorous exercise, thereby possibly contributing to enhanced overall fitness.
-
FasciaBlasting Was Proven Safe with No Overtaxing Indicators
One critical aspect addressed by the study was the safety of FasciaBlasting. Researchers closely monitored markers that might indicate an overtaxing of the body. The absence of spikes in such markers emphasizes that FasciaBlasting can be incorporated into wellness routines without inducing excessive strain or stress on the body.
-
FasciaBlasting Spot-Reduced Subcutaneous Fat
FasciaBlasting demonstrated the potential to reduce subcutaneous fat in the targeted areas while participants' overall body fat remained unchanged. This suggests that FasciaBlasting could have a role in spot-reducing fat deposits, providing insights into its potential contribution to body contouring and appearance enhancement.
-
FasciaBlasting Diminished Cellulite Appearance
A significant revelation from the study was the reduction in the appearance of cellulite. The study connected the visibility of cellulite with the condition of deep fascia within the leg. The observed reduction suggests that FasciaBlasting may offer a non-invasive approach to cellulite treatment
-
FasciaBlasting Provided Ultrasound Evidence of Collagen Remodeling
Ultrasound imaging provided tangible evidence of collagen remodeling, a process that involves regenerating or restoring collagen fibers to their native state via myofascial release. This aspect is particularly noteworthy since FasciaBlasting emerged as the sole non-invasive device capable of producing this result. Uh, oh, dimples, dents, and fat cells!
The study's meticulous design and execution were carried out by the experienced team at ASPI in Tampa, Florida. The rigorous peer-review process and subsequent publication in the Cogent Medical Journal lends credibility to the study's findings and conclusions.
From Pseudoscience to SCIENCE : The FasciaBlaster Works
The insights gleaned from this rigorous study present a compelling case for the efficacy of FasciaBlasting.* These findings, supported by measurable variables and expert scrutiny, challenge misconceptions and solidify the potential of FasciaBlasting* to continue to contribute to holistic well-being.
