Relieve Pain with Myofascial Release Therapy
Do you feel stuck with pain or stiffness? At Ignite Your Soul Wellness Spa, we help people like you feel better with myofascial release therapy.
This gentle treatment targets tight areas in your body called trigger points, which cause pain and limit movement. Let us guide you toward lasting relief and healing.
What is Myofascial Release?
"Myofascial" refers to your muscles (myo) and fascia, a layer of tissue that surrounds and supports parts of the body. Over time, stress, injuries, and repetitive actions can tighten this tissue. Tight fascia can lead to chronic pain and limited flexibility. It also forms trigger points, which are tender spots in your muscles.
Myofascial release therapy helps by applying gentle, steady pressure to these areas. This improves circulation, eases pain, and increases range of motion. With regular care, your body can heal and move more freely.
Benefits of Myofascial Release
Many of our clients notice positive changes after their first few sessions. Here’s how this therapy can help you:
Pain Relief with Trigger Point Therapy
Painful trigger points are common in people with tight fascia. These spots often develop in the back, shoulders, or hips. Myofascial release focuses on relieving these areas, reducing pain from conditions like myofascial pain syndrome and carpal tunnel syndrome.
Increased Flexibility
Tight fascia limits how far you can stretch or move. Myofascial release loosens these restrictions, improving your range of motion. You’ll find it easier to bend, reach, and perform everyday activities.
Support for Muscles and Joints
Tight fascia can make your muscles and joints feel stiff or sore. By releasing tension, this therapy helps you move with more ease and comfort.
Improved Recovery
Poor circulation slows healing. Myofascial release boosts blood flow, bringing more oxygen to your tissues. This helps your body heal faster after workouts, injuries, or long periods of stress.
Relaxation and Stress Relief
Myofascial release doesn’t just ease pain. It also helps your mind. The slow, calming techniques allow your body to relax, reducing overall stress. You may feel lighter and more refreshed after a session.
What Happens During a Session?
When you arrive at Ignite Your Soul Wellness Spa, one of our trained massage therapists will ask you about your symptoms and goals. They’ll gently assess your body to find areas of tightness.
The therapy involves slow, steady pressure on these areas. You may feel a gentle stretch or release as the fascia relaxes. Unlike other treatments, myofascial release does not involve sudden or forceful movements. It’s a calming process that helps your body release tension naturally.
Depending on your needs, our therapists may also recommend at-home self-care, such as foam rolling or gentle stretches.
Who Should Try Myofascial Release?
This therapy is helpful for people with:
Chronic pain or discomfort
Muscle or joint stiffness
Injuries from sports or exercise
Poor posture
Tension headaches
Even if you’re not in pain, regular sessions can help you stay flexible and relaxed. If you’re unsure, we can create a personalized plan to meet your needs.
How Does Myofascial Release Differ from Massage?
While both therapies can help you feel better, they are not the same. Massage focuses on relaxing your muscles, using kneading and rubbing techniques. Myofascial release targets the fascia, using slow, deep pressure to release tight areas. This makes it ideal for reducing trigger points and deep tension that other therapies may not reach.
