Massage Swedish Massage Shiatsu Deep Tissue Myofascial Release

Myofascial Release is a highly specialized stretching technique used to treat patients with a variety of soft tissue problems. Myofascial Release is used to equalize muscle tension throughout the body. Unequal muscle tension can compress nerves and muscles causing pain.

Therapists apply gentle non-invasive pressure to stretch the connective tissue that encases all muscles (fascia) to release tension and buildup. The therapist waits for the tissue to relax and then increases the stretch. The process is repeated until the area is fully relaxed.

Most patients find Myofascial Release to be a very relaxing form of treatment. This is great to relieve pain from previous injuries or chronic conditions.

  • Aids With Injury Recovery
  • Increases Blood Flow To The Area Of Restriction
  • Increases Range Of Motion
