Myofascial Release is a whole body, hands on approach to treatment,
producing a profound healing effect upon the body tissues, eliminating pain and restoring
motion. The theory of Myofascial Release requires an understanding
of the fascial system. Fascia is a tough connective tissue which
spreads throughout the body in a three dimensional web from head
to foot without interruption. The fascia surrounds every muscle,
bone, nerve, blood vessel and organ of the body, all the way down
to the the cellular level.
Malfunction of the fascial
system due to trauma, posture, and repetitive stress injuries, scarring,
and/or inflammation can create a binding down of the fascia, resulting
in abnormal pressure on nerves, muscles, bones, or organs. This
can create pain or malfunction throughout the body, sometimes with
bizarre side effects and seemingly unrelated symptoms.
Myofascial Release therapist develops treatment plans that are individualized
and customized to each persons needs. They treat the "cause of the
problem" to eliminate the symptoms, in order to make permanent structural
changes to help people return to a pain free, active lifestyle.
