Myofascial Release Therapy
Myofascial Release Therapy is a specialized technique utilized in physiotherapy to address restrictions and tension within the fascia, a connective tissue that surrounds muscles, bones, and organs throughout the body.
This therapy involves gentle, sustained pressure and stretching applied to specific areas of tightness or adhesions within the fascia. By releasing tension and restoring mobility in the fascia, Myofascial Release Therapy aims to alleviate pain, improve range of motion, and enhance overall function.
This technique can be beneficial for individuals experiencing musculoskeletal pain, stiffness, or restricted movement due to factors such as injury, overuse, or poor posture.
At Human Care Physio, our skilled therapists utilize Myofascial Release Therapy as part of our holistic approach to rehabilitation, helping our clients achieve optimal recovery and improved quality of life.
