MYOFASCIAL RELEASE (MFR)

Release Tension and Move Freely

  • How MFR Helps

    Myofascial Release Therapy targets the fascia — the connective tissue that surrounds and supports your muscles, joints, and organs. When fascia becomes tight or restricted due to injury, stress, or poor posture, it can create pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. This gentle, hands-on treatment helps release those restrictions, restore flexibility, and improve the body’s natural alignment and function.

  • Understanding Fascia

    Fascia is a continuous web of connective tissue that surrounds and supports every muscle, bone, and organ in the body. When healthy, it’s soft, elastic, and allows smooth, pain-free movement. Injury, inflammation, or prolonged stress can cause the fascia to tighten and lose flexibility, creating tension that spreads to nearby areas. Because this network connects the entire body, restrictions in one region can lead to pain or imbalance elsewhere. Myofascial Release works to gently free these restrictions, restoring balance, mobility, and overall comfort.

  • Treatment and Recovery

    During a session, your therapist applies slow, sustained pressure to targeted areas of restriction, allowing the fascia to gradually soften and release. Treatments are calm and deliberate — never forceful — helping the body realign naturally. Many patients feel lighter, looser, and more balanced afterward. Mild tenderness can occur as the tissue adjusts, but this typically resolves within a day. Regular sessions can improve posture, increase mobility, and reduce chronic pain over time.
