What Is Myofascial Release, And How Does It Work For You?

The type of myofascial release technique carried out by the therapist will depend upon where in your body the therapist finds the fascia restricted. Each treatment session will be different, a recipe is never followed, because a person's body is different from day to day.

The therapist needs to be use "skin to skin" contact to provide the friction interface needed to release the fascia effectively. Therefore, the patient should be "comfortably undressed", wearing, for example a two piece bathing suit, pants and bra or gym shorts and sports bra / tank top.

Myofascial Release treatment sessions are often extremely relaxing. There may or may not be conversation with the therapist, however the therapist encourages the patient to be present and aware of sensations within their body. Feedback from the patient to the therapist regarding what they are feeling helps the therapist to be as effective as possible.
