Myofascial Release, Stretching  & Massage Therapy

Myofascial Release

Myofascial release is a manual therapy used in massage. The technique focuses on pain believed to arise from myofascial tissues — the tough membranes that wrap, connect and support your muscles. Myofascial pain differs from other types of pain because it originates in trigger points, which are related to stiff, anchored areas within the myofascial tissue. During myofascial release therapy, our highly skilled therapist locates myofascial areas that feel stiff and fixed instead of elastic and movable under light manual pressure. These areas restrict muscle and joint movements, which contributes to widespread muscle pain. The focused manual pressure and stretching used in myofascial release therapy loosen up restricted movement, leading indirectly to reduced pain.

Stretching

Massage Therapy

Massage therapy is the manipulation of soft tissues of your body — muscle, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments and skin — using varying degrees of pressure and movement. Benefits of massage demonstrate that it is an effective treatment for reducing stress, pain and muscle tension.
