Myofascial Release is a safe and effective hands-on technique that involves applying gentle sustained pressure into the Myofascial connective tissue restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion. It is a gentle pressure applied slowly that will allow the fascia to elongate. The fascia is the a band or sheet of connective tissue, primarily collagen, beneath the skin that attaches, stabilizes, encloses, and separates muscles and other internal organs from one another. Trauma, inflammatory responses, and/or surgical procedures create Myofascial restrictions that can produce tensile pressures of approximately 2,000 pounds per square inch on pain sensitive areas that do not show up in many of the standard tests (x-rays, CAT scans, etc.) Using Myofascial Release allows me to look at each patient as a unique individual. My one-on-one therapy sessions are hands-on treatments during which I use a multitude of Myofascial Release techniques and movement therapy. You are guaranteed at least one full hour on my table with hands on treatment plus time for consultations and to answer questions. Each Myofascial Release Treatment session is performed directly on the skin without oils, creams or machinery. This enables me to accurately detect fascial restrictions and apply the appropriate amount of sustained pressure to facilitate release of the fascia.
