Soft Tissue Therapy

soft tissue massageMyofascial Release Techniques

Our practitioners use a state-of-the-art movement-based tissue release protocol that requires post-graduate training. It is used to break down adhesions (scar tissue) that form from injury, prolonged repetitive postures, and overuse. These adhesions trap nerves and bind muscle movement causing pain and dysfunction. Our practitioners trained in this technique use myofascial release as part of their comprehensive approach. The integration of muscle release with traditional Chiropractic adjustments results in a faster recovery from injury and helps prevents reoccurrence.
