Myofascial Release

Myofascial Release (myo = muscle, fascia = connective tissue)

Myofascial Release is a safe and very effective hands-on technique that involves applying gentle sustained pressure into the Myofascial connective tissue restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion. This essential “time element” has to do with the viscous flow and the piezoelectric phenomenon: a low load (gentle pressure) applied slowly will allow a connective tissue (fascia) to elongate.  This technique will allow the tissue to have improved mobility and therefore decrease pain.
