Fascia is a tough membrane of varying thickness which envelops, protects and separates everything in the body from whole muscle groups and bones down to each individual cell. Fascial Release Therapy is a very relaxing treatment involving a collection of techniques to separate layers of fascia, release restrictions and restore elasticity, conductivity and hydration in the body.
An effective hands-on technique that applies gentle, sustained pressure on fascia, this therapy focuses on scar tissue in the cranium, spine, ribs, pelvis and upper and lower extremities. Release of tension can be felt during the treatment. This technique helps to normalise muscle tone, decrease pain and swelling, and increase soft tissue and joint mobility.
