Muscle Release Therapy

Muscle Release Therapy is a non-surgical, manual techniques utilized in diagnosis and treatment of myofascial tissue injuries such as trigger points, adhesion, scar tissue within muscles, fascia, tendons and ligaments.

When soft tissue is injured, the tissue fibers stuck together and can form knots, nodules, and tight bands. These adhesions limit the movement of the tissue, and often entrap the nerves. The condition eventually goes towards reducing of the muscle strength, endurance and flexibility.

Muscle Release Therapy utilizes principles of friction and tension to release the adhesions away from muscles, fascia, tendons and ligaments. Using a series of hands-on techniques including myofascial release, strain-counterstrain, positional release, and muscle energy technique while the affected muscles are in motion (either actively or passively), the tissue’s adhesions are removed and therefore the function is restored.
