Myofascial Release Therapy
Myofascial release therapy is a hands-on technique that targets the fascia. This is a thin and tough connective tissue that surrounds muscles, bones, and organs. By applying sustained pressure and gentle stretching, myofascial release therapy aims to release tension and restrictions in the fascia, helping to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and restore optimal function in the affected areas.
During a myofascial release therapy session, the therapist will typically use their hands or specialized tools to apply sustained pressure and gentle stretching techniques on specific areas of the body affected by fascial restrictions. They will work with the client to locate and release areas of tension or adhesions in the fascia.
