The Fascia Guide

Somewhere right now, someone is in pain that could already be eased. On average it takes seventeen years for research to reach the people who need it. Most keep suffering in that gap.

Recorded live at the Swedish Fascia Convention - The Living Body, Uppsala, June 2025. Ivar Bohlin, Hans Bohlin and doctors Mareike Claussen and Beate Maul on what happens when you stop letting research sit on the page and start putting it to work, and what it takes to act on an idea before you can prove it is right.

“I’m done thinking and talking about problems. I want solutions, I want them now, and I’m going to do something about it.” - Ivar Bohlin

If you have ever been the only person in the room who understood why fascia matters, this one is for you.

Four people who each saw something before others did, and kept going when no one understood. Recorded live at the Swedish Fascia Convention - The Living Body, Uppsala, June 2025. Host Axel Bohlin talks with pathologist Neil Theise, physiotherapist and researcher Sue Adstrum, and physician Sven Roman about rejection, resistance, and what it actually takes to be a pioneer when the people around you cannot yet see what you see.

Asked how long it would take for the world to catch up, Sue Adstrum answered: “I think it’s already happened. It’s not, can we make it happen? It’s happened.”

In this episode, we talk with Australian osteopath Richard Stevens about his journey into fascia treatment, what led him from Melbourne to Swedish Fascia Convention, and how a new approach to health can transform both body and mind.

From treating horses to helping people breathe for the first time in years - Richard shares how fascia and flow are the future of well-being.

In this Christmas Special, Axel Bohlin and Per Johansson explore a deeper question: How important is belief when it comes to healing?
For both the one who treats and the one who receives treatment, belief, trust, and inner conviction may play a far greater role than we usually acknowledge.

In the spirit of the season, the conversation turns to faith, hope, and love, and what these timeless qualities mean in a modern context.
What practical significance do these concepts have in today’s world — both in the body and beyond it?

In this conversation, he shares his fascination with fascia, why the subject has captured his attention, and why he believes holistic health will become increasingly important in modern medicine.
Together, we explore how fascia research is reshaping clinical understanding, and how a more holistic perspective may influence the future of healthcare.
