At Holistic Health Care, we offer Myofascial Release Therapy as a powerful, hands-on technique to treat chronic tension, restricted movement, and pain caused by fascial adhesions. This gentle, non-invasive therapy complements chiropractic care by restoring mobility and reducing strain on the musculoskeletal system.
Fascia is the body’s connective tissue network—a three-dimensional web that surrounds muscles, joints, nerves, and organs. Healthy fascia is pliable and allows smooth, unrestricted movement. However, stress, injury, poor posture, or inflammation can cause fascia to become stiff and stuck, leading to pain and limited motion. These restrictions can pull on muscles and joints, disrupting alignment and placing stress on the body’s structure. That’s where myofascial release comes in.
How Myofascial Release Therapy Works
Myofascial Release Therapy involves applying sustained, precise pressure to areas of fascial tension, allowing the tissue to gradually soften and lengthen. Unlike quick or forceful manipulation, this technique works with your body’s natural healing processes to release restrictions without causing trauma or inflammation.
As chiropractors, we integrate Myofascial Release Therapy with spinal adjustments and corrective strategies to address not only the joint dysfunction but also the soft tissue imbalances that often accompany it.
Conditions Treated with Myofascial Release Therapy
Myofascial restrictions can contribute to a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions. This therapy can be highly effective for:
- Chronic neck, shoulder, and back pain
- Tension headaches and migraines
- Sciatica and nerve compression symptoms
- Plantar fasciitis
- TMJ dysfunction (jaw tension)
- Postural imbalances
- Athletic and repetitive strain injuries
- Limited flexibility or range of motion
Reduce muscle tightness with Myofascial Release Therapy
The benefits of Myofascial Release Therapy include reduced chronic muscle tightness and pain, improved range of motion, improved functional movement and decreased tension on joints. This is just one of the ways our clinic can help you move better and feel better naturally.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Kianian for almost four months now. I was in a car accident and did some serious damage to my back. Every step of the way she’s worked with me, talked to me about exactly what has been going on and professionally addressed each concern as it’s come up, no matter how minor it has been. The staff is friendly and helpful and always willing to work with my schedule, even last minute changes.

My girlfriend was being treated by Dr. Kianian for back pain, and asked her if she could treat asthma. Dr. Kianian told me that people often suffer from asthma because the back is misaligned, which causes the chest muscles tighten up against your lungs. I started treatment, and the results have been great. Dr. Kianian fixed the tightness in my muscles and showed me how years of bad posture had caused my spine to curve the wrong way. She knew exactly what the root of my breathing and allergy problems were, and explained everything clearly to me. Now, I feel like I know what I have to do to stay healthy. My breathing is normal and free again. And, it’s now peak allergy season and I haven’t sneezed once yet.
My first visit to Dr. Kianian’s office was in early 1999 and I have kept on going back since. I was having some lower back pain when I started. Throughout the initial set of treatments Dr. Kianian explained the benefits of regular adjustments and I testify to this fact based on my 13 years of experience. Dr. Kianian’s knowledge and experiences are great combination to find the root of the problem efficiently and to treat them effectively. She shares her findings and course of treatment step by step and carefully at each visit. There have been times that I’d needed urgent treatments due to accidents and they have always accommodated my needs accordingly and with tremendous care. Dr. Kianian and her staff are very professional, courteous, and pleasant. I have always been greeted with respect and beautiful smiles. I have been very happy with their service and I will keep on going back. Thank you Dr. Kianian and staff!

Sometimes, I go in for my appointment feeling so stressed out, from work, or traffic, or whatever. Dr. Kianian always knows exactly where the tension is, even if I barely realize it myself. I mean, she can get rid of a headache instantly, just by putting a little pressure on the right spot. I always walk out of there feeling like a new person.
This place is absolutely fantastic! Scheduled a chiropractic appointment for my mom. Staff was very friendly and professional. Dr. Kianian is extremely talented, professional and kind. She made my mom feel right at ease and took her time to clearly explain her healing process. My mom loved her acupressure therapy session and it really helped her aching back and legs. They even took care to make sure I was comfortable as I waited. The facilities are very clean and inviting. A great health care clinic and I would definitely recommend it! I think just about anyone could benefit from the health services they offer. I will definitely be going here again myself.

I have been a patient at SJHHC for almost a year. I have always had great experiences here. Office staff is encouraging and very helpful. I would recommend this office to my friends & family. It is very kid friendly office as well. A Very Happy Patient!
I had many sleepless nights due to tremendous shoulder pain. I was not seeking any kind of medical care or treatment; I just tolerated the pain. Some relatives and friends recommended to try out the Holistic Health Care Center. The medical care and treatments I have received here have been very effective. My shoulder pain is almost completely eliminated and is continuing to improve. I’m now feeling healthier and sleeping very well at night.
I love coming here. It’s like a spa treatment (even when it hurts). The doctor is so knowledgeable, she can offer advice on a number of health topics. You always get the feeling that she remembers you well and monitors your progress carefully. The staff is wonderful, and the new massage therapist is terrific.

I was being treated by another chiropractor without improvement -over a 9 month period my symptoms were getting worse and progressively limiting my activity. After visiting Dr. Kianian I strated feeling better almost immediately.
