Hands-on work informed by the relationships among fascia, movement, and tissue tolerance.
Attention to muscular guarding, tenderness, and patterns of referred pain.

How the body organizes itself during standing, walking, and daily activity can inform the session.
Breathing patterns and the body's ability to settle can help guide how much work is appropriate.

For swelling, unexplained neurological symptoms, acute injury, or significant medical conditions, appropriate diagnosis and medical clearance may be necessary before hands-on work.
