Myofascial Release
Relieve pain in your connective tissues
Myofascial release therapy is a massage technique that relieves pain in the thick, connective tissues that support your muscles. These tissues are spread across your entire body and connect your muscles, joints, and bones. Myofascial pain is when pain occurs in a place where this myofascial tissue meets or crosses.
Pain or tightness in your myofascial tissue can restrict movement and lead to widespread pain and discomfort. A trained therapist works to identify myofascial areas that are particularly stiff, and massage and stretch the tissue to eliminate knots.
Benefits of this type of healing massage:
Improve range of motion
Reduce soreness
Aid in muscle recovery
Increase relaxation
Improve circulation
Reduce stress & anxiety
Reduce tension throughout your body
Myofascial release can help relieve tension and stiffness all over your body. The tissue often becomes tight in the following areas:
- Arms
- Calves
- Feet
- Head
- Hips
- Jaw
- Lower back
- Neck
- Quads
- Shoulders
Working with a trained massage therapist can help you get back your flexibility and get rid of sore muscles.
