Myofascial Release

Fascia is a densely woven yet very thin casing that surrounds every muscle, bone, and organ throughout your body. In its healthy state, the fascia is relaxed and wavy, able to move and stretch without restrictions. But due to trauma, inflammation, or scarring, the fascia loses its pliability becoming tight and restricted causing pain, tension, and limited movement to an area. Myofascial release is a hands-on technique that involves applying gentle sustained pressure, from 3-5 minutes, into the myofascial tissue restriction in order to relax the fascia, eliminate pain and restore motion.
