Who and What We Treat
Myofascial release therapy (MFR) addresses the structural adhesions (and chronic holding patterns) that can create or exacerbated pain. Drugs, injections, and nerve bocks are often ways to make pain, the body’s signal that something is wrong. MFR can reduce the crushing force of the fascial which can actually fix the problem and allow your body to function in a healthy, less painful way.
One core principle of Myofascial Release Therapy is that the source of pain is rarely the site of the symptoms. For example, neck, back, and jaw pain can all originate from a misaligned pelvis. MFR therapists scan the entire body for restrictions which are often the cause of your symptoms.
Because fascial restrictions are the source of so many symptoms, MFR can often treat disfunction and in other cases, it can augment existing therapies. Some ailments include:
• Fibromyalgia
• Chronic Pain Syndrome
• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
• Depression & Anxiety
• Pre and Post Natal
• Breast Health: post-surgery scar therapy, post-mastectomy,
dense breast tissue, lump reduction, & lactation improvement.
• Pelvic Floor
• Incontinence
• Cramping and Menstrual Pain
• Compartment Syndrome
• Back Pain
• Neck Pain
• Headaches including migraines
• Jaw Pain (TMJ)
• Shoulder Pain including frozen shoulder
• Scar Restrictions
• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
• Postural Alignment
• Plantar Fasciitis
• Athletic Performance Improvement
• Post-Surgical Rehab
MFR can augment existing medical therapies by allowing medication and nutrition to reach injured or diseased areas of the body. Additionally, MFR allows the body to flush toxins and cellular waste.
