Myofascial release massage NEW Health Insurance Site with Audio Myofascial release massage is used to reduce chronic pain and rehabilitate a wide range of injuries. First, you should know a little about fascia to understand exactly what we are trying to accomplish with myofascial release. Fascia is located between the skin and the underlying structure of muscle and bone, and is a seamless web of connective tissue that covers and connects the muscles, organs, and skeletal structures in our body. Restriction to fascia can be caused by injuries, stress, inflammation, trauma, and poor posture. Since fascia is an interconnected web, the restriction or tightness to fascia at a place, over time can spread to other places in the body. The goal of myofascial release is to release this fascia restriction and restore its tissue health. Having said that, here are some self myofascial release techniques you can do. Erector Spine Stretch Self Myofascial Release Position the client on the foam roller at the level of approx. T-2. Instruct client to perform a drawing in and pelvic floor contraction to aid in spinal stabilization. Once the client is positioned correctly, instruct them to roll slightly to one side (so that they are on the muscle that runs parallel to the spine and not the spine itself) and HOLD. SLOWLY, the client should roll the foam roller down the side of the spine toward to pelvis, feeling for an area of increased tension. Once found, the client should HOLD on this area for 30 sec - 1 min or until the muscle has relaxed about 50% (AVOID rolling over this trigger point area). Once released, roll to another spot and HOLD Quadricep SMR Stretch Self Myofascial Release Body is positioned prone with quadriceps on foam roll It is very important to maintain proper Core control (abdominal Drawn-In position & tight gluteus) to prevent low back compensations Roll from pelvic bone to knee, emphasizing the lateral thigh If a “tender point” is located, stop rolling, and rest on the tender point until pain decreases by 75%.
