❌ The Problem With Fascia Blasters

Fascia blasters are typically rigid plastic tools with multiple hard knobs. They are aggressively scraped across the skin to “break up” fascia, increase circulation, or reduce cellulite.

⚠️ Common Side Effects:

• Deep bruising and broken blood vessels

• Nerve irritation or numbness

• Increased inflammation or swelling

• Soreness that lasts for days

• Worsening of existing injuries

These risks are especially high if used with excessive pressure or on inflamed tissue. For people with chronic pain, autoimmune issues, or poor tissue tolerance, this kind of aggressive scraping can make symptoms worse.
