Myofascial Release (MFR)

Myo is muscle.
Fascial is the web-like connective tissue.
Myofascial release targets restrictions or adhesions within the fascia that may result from trauma, inflammation, stress, or poor posture.

Trigger points are localized, hyper-irritable spots in a tight band of muscle or fascia. They often feel like small knots or nodules and can cause pain locally or refer pain to other areas. Myofascial release uses gentle, sustained pressure and stretching to reduce muscle tension and improve blood flow, alleviating pain caused by trigger points.

Myofascial release balls are specialized tools designed to help release tension, improve mobility, and relieve pain in the fascia and muscles. These balls come in various sizes, densities, and materials to target specific areas of the body and address different needs.

Myofascial Release and Yin Yoga complement each other beautifully, as both focus on releasing tension, improving mobility, and creating balance within the body. The pinpoint pressure combined with Yin Yoga’s prolonged holds allows for a profound physical and emotional release.
