MYOFASCIAL RELEASE: less force, more listening.
Myofascial Release is a hands-on massage therapy modality that works with the fascia, the connective tissue that surrounds and supports the muscles and other structures throughout the body.
When fascia becomes restricted from repetitive movement, stress, posture, injury, or simply the way we use our bodies, it can contribute to that feeling of tightness, limited movement, or “something just doesn’t feel right.”
Myofascial work is different from traditional massage.
The pressure is often slow and sustained. Instead of digging into tissue or constantly moving over it, steady contact is used and then waiting for the tissue to respond.
No forcing.
No rushing.
No trying to overpower the body.
Just intentional contact, attention to the tissue, and time.
Myofascial Release may be especially helpful when you’re dealing with:
• Chronic neck, shoulder, or back tension
• Jaw tension
• Restricted range of motion
• Areas that always seem to “tighten back up”
• Post-workout or repetitive-use tension
• Recovery after injury
And sometimes the place that hurts isn’t the place that needs the most attention. That’s why myofascial work looks at how the body is connected rather than treating everything as an isolated problem.
Myofascial Release is available at Soul + Soma Massage in Louisville, Colorado.
