We’ve all been there: A yoga class that was too fast, a stretch that was too deep, a hike that was too hard. Even when we’re not pushing our bodies to the extreme, we’re often sitting still at a desk letting them atrophy, causing real damage to our musculoskeletal systems. What are we to do?<\/p>\n
Enter: Bodywork. Specifically, bodywork that uses a body’s natural mechanics to begin to find healing. Derek Cook<\/a> is a Wanderlust teacher and bodywork expert, who has made a career out of helping other people help themselves by tuning into the subtleties of biomechanics. We caught up with him at Wanderlust Squaw Valley<\/a> last summer to break down some easy bodywork anyone can do, anywhere.<\/p>\n
