11. Can Myofascial Release Therapy help with sports injuries?
Myofascial Release Therapy is highly beneficial for athletes recovering from injuries or looking to prevent them. By releasing fascial restrictions, improving circulation, and promoting muscle flexibility, this therapy aids in faster recovery and enhanced performance. Regular sessions can also help with injury prevention by maintaining optimal muscle and tissue health.
12. What makes Myofascial Release Therapy different from regular massage?
Unlike regular massage, Myofascial Release Therapy specifically targets fascial restrictions rather than just muscle tension. This approach allows for deeper, long-lasting relief by addressing the root cause of pain and mobility issues. The techniques used involve sustained pressure, rather than quick, repetitive strokes, to encourage the fascia to soften and release.
13. How long does a Myofascial Release Therapy session last?
A typical Myofascial Release Therapy session lasts between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated. Some clients may opt for longer sessions if multiple areas require attention. Our therapists can recommend an appropriate session length based on your needs and treatment goals.
14. Can Myofascial Release Therapy be combined with other treatments?
Myofascial Release Therapy works well in combination with other treatments such as remedial massage, dry needling, and physiotherapy. By integrating multiple modalities, clients can achieve more comprehensive results, addressing both muscle and fascia-related discomfort. Our therapists can provide guidance on the best approach based on your specific condition.
