Myofascial release is a safe, effective hands-on technique that applies sustained pressure into contracted muscles and the connective tissue around them.
Fascia (from the Latin word for band) wraps everything in the body: organs, nerves, muscles, blood vessels, the brain and spinal cord. When it tightens or sticks, it can pull on structures far from where you feel the pain.
The aim
Treatment works to relax, lengthen and realign fascia, muscles, ligaments and tendons. Through trigger point release, tissue work and breaking down adhesions, the goal is healthier muscle function and a greater range of pain-free movement.
Everyone responds differently. Manual osteopaths don't diagnose conditions or prescribe medication; see the frequently asked questions.
