Myofascial release manipulates the fascia, which is the connective tissue of the body. It’s the interwoven encasing that wraps every muscle fiber as well as every organ within your entire body. Fascia can become tight and restricted due to physical or emotional trauma, poor posture, or repetitive movements, which can lead to pain, stiffness, and limited mobility. This technique is performed directly on the skin without oils or lotions in order to achieve maximum blood flow to the area and can cause slight tingling/mild burning in the short term, but will absolutely transform the body! It is slow work, both for the client and body because time allows for the tissues to separate (at the client’s pace), creating a physical space in the body for more beneficial movement patterns and restoring the body’s natural flow.
