Myofascial Release & Relaxation Massage

Service Description

Myofascial Release Therapy is a safe and highly effective form of soft tissue hands-on manipulation that works with the fascial system to enhance movement and functionality in the body. When fascial restrictions are released space is created, restoring movement and glide-ability in the body. The fascia that covers the muscular system is called myofascia. The myofascia covers every layer within the musculature, wrapping every muscle fibre, muscle bundle, the muscle and also every muscle group. If the myofascia is tight and restricted, it creates a restricted environment for the muscle. The technique is done without lotion or oil and the practitioner sinks into the client’s body with their hand, engages the fascia and then does a slow movement to stretches the fascia. Anytime we work with fascia we are working at all levels of functionality of the body. The work creates a chain reaction on all levels of the mind-body complex enhancing the efficiency and functioning of whole body systems, enhancing key functioning at the cellular level and facilitating the release of emotions and stored active memories.
