Myofascial release is an alternative medicine therapy that is useful for treating skeletal muscle immobility and pain by finding trigger points, relaxing contracted muscles, improving blood and lymphatic circulation, and stimulating the stretch reflex in muscles.
The Fascia is our 'internal skin' which supports 80% of our
body, surrounding and supporting all internal organs, muscles and bones.
In a healthy state our fascia is relaxed and will stretch and move. If the body experiences any kind of trauma (physical or emotional) the fascia loses its pliability and becomes stuck. This can lead to physical restrictions if left untreated.
If you notice persistent pain that doesn't dissipate even after icing and rest, myofascial release could be a good option. Many clients say that they start to feel immediate relief after just one session
