Myofascial Release
of Dallas  Myofascial release
massage is a very effective treatment that provides sustained pressure into
restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion. The fascia is a
specialized system of the body that has an appearance similar to a spider's
web or a sweater. This is densely woven, covering and penetrating every
muscle, bone, nerve, artery and vein as well as all of our internal
organs. This includes the heart, lung, brain and spinal cord. The
fascia is a continuous structure from head to foot covering everything.
In this way, you can begin to see that each part of the entire body is
connected to every other part by the fascia, like the yarn in a sweater.
You remember that song..."The hip bone is connected to the knee
bone." Well, that stands true.
Your
fascia plays an important role in the support of our bodies, since it
surrounds and attaches to all structures. These structures would not be
able to provide the stability without the constant pull of the fascia
system. Our bones can be thought of as tent poles, which cannot
support the structure without the constant support of the guide wires (or
fascia) to keep adequate amount of tension. Myofascial release
massage
is a three-dimensional application process. In a normal state the fascia
is relaxed and wavy. It can stretch and move without restriction.
When we experience trauma, scarring or inflammation, the fascia loses its
pliability. Trauma, whiplash, surgery or just habitual poor posture over
time and repetitive stress injuries has a cumulative effect. The fascia
tightens and starts exerting pressure producing pain or restriction of
motion. In
Myofascial release massage, we look at each person individually to see what
patterns have occurred and what needs to be done. We have a one-on-one
therapy session with which we use numerous myofascial techniques and
movements. The sensation of myofascial massage can feel like a slight sunburn
pull. Myofascial release
massage is an effective
therapeutic approach in the relief of cervical pain, back pain, fibromyalgia,
scoliosis, neurological dysfunction, restriction of motion, chronic pain,
headaches and many other problems. When muscle massage does not
help, myofascial release massage seems to do the trick. Muscles cannot
relax when the fascia is still constricting them. Myofascial release
has also helped artists and musicians find relief from their neck, hand and
wrist issues. Try myofascial
