Why Myofascial Release?

Through trauma in your normal life: falls, surgery, habitual poor posture, thwarted inflammatory responses and other actions, fascia has the tendency to tighten, solidify and constrict. The now restricted tissue pulls on surrounding structures through the continuous web of fascia. Left uncorrected, the fascia web will reorganize to support and reinforce these areas that are subjected to increased tensions which causes the restriction to spread. Myofascial release can alleviate restricted tissue and allow your body to function properly.

Relief with Myofascial Release

Myofascial release is a safe, gentle and effective therapy that produces results that last. It can be beneficial in relieving many conditions, including:

• Acute and chronic pain
• Headaches and Migraines
• Fibromyalgia
• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
• Digestive issues
• Women’s health issues
• Back pain
• Joint pain/issues
• Scar tissue/adhesions
• Post-surgical dysfunction
• Disc problems
• Restricted movement
• Scoliosis
• Sports Injuries
• Carpal tunnel syndrome
• ...and more!

To understand why myofascial release is effective in treating so many conditions, consider what happens to nerves, blood vessels, joints, organs, and even the very cells themselves when their fascial web of support is distorted. Critical, life-sustaining functions are interrupted in a variety of ways and your body compensates by displaying symptoms. By correcting the distortions, myofascial release relieves the symptoms.

Systemic Benefit of Myofascial Release

Even if you think you don’t have any condition that could be improved, you’d be surprised at how much has been affected by fascial restrictions. By removing these restrictions, everything you do in life can be done with greater ease, comfort and balance. Quicker healing, faster recovery from exercise and clearer memory and thinking are a few of the benefits even for those without any outward symptoms.
