The Movement Driven Podcast: Fascia Explained
Greg Goldberger • December 9, 2025
The Hidden System Behind Chronic Pain and Better Movement
Most people have heard the word fascia, but few actually know what it is, how it works, or why it might be the real reason behind their chronic pain. In this episode, Dr. Greg breaks down what fascia actually is, why it’s so overlooked in traditional healthcare, and how dysfunction in this system can impact everything from low back pain to migraines to shoulder tension.
We talk through common myths, why short-term relief from massage often doesn’t last, why fascial restrictions can be both physical and emotional, and how hydration, targeted movement, and dry needling play a huge role in restoring healthy tissue.
If you’ve been dealing with recurring pain, stiffness, or mobility limitations, this conversation will help you understand what your fascia is trying to tell you; and what you can do about it.
