Self Myofascial Release

A therapist guided self-administered treatment that focuses on releasing tension, adhesions and trigger points in the fascia as well as the muscle. These restrictions can be due to trauma, posture and inflammation. Fascia is strong connective tissue that is networked throughout the body. Myofascial release/trigger point therapy is a slow sustained pressure that can be superficial or reach deeper into the tissues to release faulty contractions and conditions in the fascia and muscles. It can also be administered by the therapist. This treatment is applied to overactive muscles and tissues before stretching.
