Myofascial therapy is a technique used to treat injuries and discomfort by targeting the fascia. My 40+ years of experience has found that combining Swedish massage with this treatment creates a relaxing and therapeutic bodywork session. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging, including relief from aches and pains and decreased stress levels in the body.

Myofascial release is a form of soft tissue therapy intended to eliminate pain, increase range of motion, and rebalance the entire body. It does this by using massage techniques to stretch the fascia and release the bonds that exist between the fascia, muscles and bones. Fascia is the connective tissue that connects and covers all muscles, organs, and skeletal structures of the body. Direct myofascial release is sometimes known as deep tissue work. Indirect release applies light pressure and gently stretches the fascia; this allows for increased blood circulation and relief from pain.
