Really excited to be adding Myofascial Release into my treatments.
The last couple of years ive become really interested in the Fascia and I finally completed the training up in Glasgow yesterday 🙌
Fascia is like a three dimensional body stocking that weaves its way throughout the entire body without interruption. Like a spiders Web supporting and penetrating all muscle, organ, artery, vein, nerve, bone and right down to cellular level.
In its normal healthy state Fascia is relaxed and has the ability to stretch and move, however if the body experiences any kind of trauma, either through poor postural habits, surgery, accident, physical or emotional trauma, inflammation or scarring the Fascia will lose its pliability and can become hard, stuck and dehydrated. I like to think of it as a sponge, when it is dehydrated its stiff and inflexible but once you rehydrate it it becomes soft and flexible.
MFR is a hands on manual therapy focusing on soft tissue dysfunction, pain, tension and holding patterns. It involves gentle sustained pressure and techniques to allow the Fascia to elongate, release and rehydrate.
A wonderful addition to the "toolkit" that im looking forward to sharing with my clients.
