Through the decades we’ve been helping people, we’ve begun to realize that some who suffer from pain, lack of movement, and lack of motion may have a fascial problem.

Fascia is a thin, tough, elastic connective tissue that wraps most structures in the body, including muscle. The fascia is intended to stretch and move without restriction.

Fascia can lose its pliability due to disease, overuse, trauma, infection, scarring, inflammation or inactivity. If you suffer from fascial trouble, you may be experiencing pain, headaches, muscle tension or lack of mobility – and sometimes, fascial problems go undetected by standard medical tests, including x-rays, myelograms, CAT scans, and electromyography.

Myofascial release (MFR) is a soft tissue therapy for the treatment of skeletal muscle immobility and pain. We offer a safe and painless alternative medicine option that relaxes contracted muscles, improves blood and lymphatic circulation, and stimulates the stretch reflex in muscles.

Our hands-on technique seeks to “release” the fascia by applying gentle, sustained pressure into the myofascial connective tissue restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion. Your fascia is gently stretched or elongated to the deepest tissue levels, and the body’s tissue is never forced, so MFR can never injure.
