myofascial release massage

Myofascial Release Massage is specialized, deeper bodywork that goes above and beyond your typical swedish or deep tissue massage. This specialized work tunes into your target areas for more preventative and corrective care by relaxing, lengthening and realigning muscle fibers.

​

This therapy is a safe and very effective technique that involves applying gentle sustained pressure into the myofascial connective tissue to eliminate pain and restore motion. Included stretching can bring deeper muscle groups to the surface for greater accessibility and a more productive massage. 

​

What is fascia?

Home care muscle education is also included in this treatment.
