          What is Myofascial Release?

Myofascial Release treats the entire Myofascial mind/body complex,
eliminating the pressure that causes the symptoms.
We acknowledge the symptoms but treat the root cause.

What is Myofascial Release?

“Myo” means muscle.  The fascial system or “fascia” is the three-dimensional, continuous web of connective tissue that interfaces and permeates every system, muscle, bone, nerve, blood vessel, organ, and cell of our body.  Fascia separates, supports, connects, and protects everything in our body.  Fascia is our body’s shock absorber.

Myofascial Release, or “MFR” for short, is a safe and highly effective whole-body hand-on technique to eliminate pain and restore motion. Trauma, surgical procedures, and/or inflammatory responses can create Myofascial restrictions that produce tensile pressures of up to 2,000 pounds per square inch on pain sensitive structures do not show up on standard tests such as X-rays, myelograms, CAT scans, etc.

How is Myofascial Release Different?

Myofascial Release consists of the gentle application of sustained pressure into the fascia and fascial restrictions.

Your myofascial therapist artistically finds the restrictions and removes the slack without sliding on the skin’s surface. This then enables your therapist to use the fascial system as an amazing lever that reaches deeply into your body where significant problems may be located.

This gentle pressure is held for a minimum of 5 minutes allowing a softening and a more lasting release that can be felt throughout the body.

What Can I Expect During My Session?

…

Myofascial Release (MFR) is individualized to meet your needs in a caring and respectful manner.  Men may wear shorts.  Women may wear shorts and a sports bra, two piece swimsuit, or your under garments.

MFR therapy is performed on dry, clean skin without the use of oils or creams.  It is a form of gentle hands-on, manual therapy that provides gentle, sustained pressure, and prolonged stretching to your body’s muscles and tissues.  This restores the flow to your body’s fascia, elasticity of tissues and muscle movement.  Best of all, it minimizes or removes pain.
