Myofascial Release Therapy

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
