Myofascial Release

Effective Myofascial Release Therapy in Grande Prairie

Professional Myofascial Release Therapy in Grande Prairie, Ab

A hands-on treatment for the skin, myofascial release (MFR) was specifically developed to address issues faced by the fascia. It is a safe and very effective hands-on technique that involves applying gentle sustained pressure into the myofascial connective tissue. The prime objective behind this treatment is to restore motion and eliminate pain. Our Grande Prairie myofascial release therapists provide one-on-one therapy sessions to our Grande Prairie, Alberta clients. These sessions are basically hands-on treatments depending on the need of each individual. We believe that each patient is unique and hence the treatment required is also distinct. We cannot apply the same techniques and procedure regardless of the facial restrictions.

What Is Fascia?

Before you opt for MFR, it is important to understand what fascia is. Basically, fascia is a web of tough connective tissue that extends throughout the body, surrounding and permeating every nerve, muscle, blood vessel, bone, and organ. When in normal state, the fascia is relaxed, wavy and normal in configuration. When it is restricted, it dehydrates and becomes like glue. There are several reasons behind formation of a myofascial web that can result in pain and restricted movement. These reasons include:

Habitual poor posture

Accidents

Trauma resulting from accidents, falls, or surgery

Repetitive stress/strain

Emotional stress

These result in a buildup of toxins and reduced blood flow and oxygen to the area. Over time, it causes restrictions in movement of joints and muscles which can cause headaches.

How Does Myofascial Release Work at Our Grande Prairie Clinic? 

A myofascial release is focused on manual pressure and stretching that loosens up restricted movement, leading indirectly to reduced pain. Our Grande Prairie myofascial release therapists will apply sustained pressure to points of restriction. It allows us to look at each patient as a distinct individual. We use a multitude of myofascial release techniques and movement therapy. We do not use any oil, lotion, cream, or machines in this stretching therapy. We connect deeply with the tissues using sustained traction and/or compression for an opportunity to heal long-term. Our Grande Prairie therapists promote independence through self treatment instruction, education in proper body mechanics and movement, improved flexibility, as well as enhancement of strength, postural, and movement awareness.


Our Grande Prairie myofascial release therapists detect facial restrictions and apply the appropriate amount of sustained pressure to facilitate release of the fascia. It is better to consult a doctor if you are interested in trying MFR. It is deemed as the best alternative treatment to restricted movements, stiffness, and pain. We incorporate a “wholistic” – or whole body – approach. The time taken for treatment depends on the condition of patient. But, you can expect relief in 3 to 4 sessions when you do them regularly. If you are facing severe pain or need to address a specific concern, you can take multiple sessions within a short period of time.
