Myofascial Release Therapy In Norwich

Myofascial Release Therapy (MFR)

Myofascial Release is a gentle and effective hands-on technique that involves applying light sustained pressure to the fascial tissues of the body, to reduce restrictions, eliminate pain and restore motion.

Fascia is like a spider web. The stringy tissue is densely woven throughout your muscles, bones, nerves, arteries, veins and organs. Your fascia is one continuous structure throughout your body. Each part of your body is connected to it in some way. That’s why if there’s a snag in the tissue in one part of your body, it can cause pain in another part of your body. Soft tissues in the body can become restricted due to injury, overuse, inactivity and result in pain, tension and reduced blood flow. 

The goal of myofascial therapy is to stretch and loosen the fascia so that it and other contiguous structures can move more freely. Myofascial release can improve range of movement, flexibility, posture and movement awareness. Treatments are tailored to individuals and it is an effective method to overcome pain and tightness resulting from exercise training, injury and trauma.
