Common conditions we treat :

Myofascial Release is a very effective hands-on technique that provides sustained pressure into myofascial restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion.

Consists of a small band of muscle which feels knotty, It is sometimes painful when touched, but the pain is often referred to another area of the body, Trigger points are thought to be due to an accumulation within deep muscle of the waste products of physical activity.
This causes localized muscle tension and spasm which may make the points feel like small nodules.
