FAQs

Muscle release and soft tissue techniques are a variety of hands-on therapies that address tension, tightness, and pain in the muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia (connective tissue). These techniques aim to improve muscle function, increase flexibility, and promote healing.

While massage can include some soft tissue work, muscle release and soft tissue techniques are often more specific and targeted. They focus on identifying and addressing the root cause of muscle tension and dysfunction, rather than just providing general relaxation.

Our practitioners utilize a variety of techniques, including:

  • Myofascial release: Gentle, sustained pressure to release restrictions in the fascia.
  • Trigger point therapy: Focused pressure on tight muscle knots to alleviate pain and improve function.
  • Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM): Tools are used to break up scar tissue and adhesions.
  • Stretching and mobilization: Techniques to improve muscle flexibility and joint range of motion.

Muscle release and soft tissue techniques offer numerous benefits, such as:

  • Pain relief: Reduces pain in muscles, joints, and other soft tissues.
  • Improved flexibility: Increases range of motion and reduces stiffness.
  • Reduced muscle tension: Releases muscle tightness, spasms, and knots.
  • Enhanced circulation: Improves blood flow to injured areas, promoting healing.
  • Faster injury recovery: Aids in the rehabilitation of injuries.
  • Improved posture: Helps correct postural imbalances.
  • Enhanced athletic performance: Improves muscle function and efficiency.

These techniques can be beneficial for a wide range of conditions, including:

  • Back pain
  • Neck pain
  • Headaches
  • Sciatica
  • Sports injuries
  • Muscle strains and sprains
  • Tendonitis
  • Frozen shoulder
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome
  • Plantar fasciitis
  • Post-surgical rehabilitation

Your practitioner will conduct a thorough assessment to identify areas of muscle tension and dysfunction. They will then apply the appropriate techniques to address your specific needs. You may experience some discomfort during the treatment, but it should not be painful.

Sessions typically range from 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the areas being treated and your individual needs.

The frequency of treatment will depend on your condition and goals. Your practitioner will recommend a treatment plan that’s right for you.

Many health insurance plans offer coverage for these techniques, especially if they are part of a treatment plan for a specific condition. Check with your insurance provider to confirm your coverage.
