Myofascial Release + Stretching

Myofascial release is a safe and effective technique that involves applying pressure into myofascial connective tissue restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion.  Fascia is a thin, tough elastic type of connective tissue that wraps most structures within the human body, including muscles. Myofascial release eases muscle pain, increases range of motion, reduces appearance of cellulite, relieves muscle tension, and reduces joint pain.  This is useful for treating skeletal muscle immobility and pain by relaxing contracted muscles, improves blood, oxygen, and lymphatic circulation, and stimulates the stretch reflex in muscles.

Stretching improves everyday function as well as athletic performance.  Flexibility tends to diminish as we get older, unless maintained with regular stretching exercises. It also increases blood flow (circulation) to your muscles and rids waste byproducts in muscle tissue.  Stretching relaxes tight tense muscles that often accompany stress.  Stretching can help your muscles from becoming tight, allowing the body to maintain proper posture.  Stretching helps maintain full range of motion through the joints, which keeps the body in better balance and helps the body work more efficiently for enhanced performance.
