We are an Occupational Therapy practice specializing in the Myofascial Release (MFR) approach to help our clients achieve a pain free, whole life. We do this by focusing in on Fascia and Fascial Restrictions.
Focus on Fascia
When the Fascia is in its normal healthy state it is a relaxed and supple web - like the weave in a loose-knit sweater. When it is restricted, it is more rigid and less pliable and can create pulls, tensions, and pressure points. The Fascia’s health and flexibility is the key to our whole body’s wellbeing and our ability to perform the activities we need to or want to in our daily lives.
When Fascia becomes injured through trauma, a disease process or chronic stress, it tightens causing a Fascial Restriction. Over time, these tight areas or restrictions pull on the rest of the interconnected fabric of the Fascia. One trauma can cause our entire fascial network to tighten up or misalign causing symptoms such as pain, tingling, burning, restriction in motion and fatigue. This misalignment is what we correct and resolve.
Fascial Restrictions affect our flexibility andd stability and are a determining factor in our capacity to with stand stress and perform ours daily activities with ease. The whole quality of our life is affected.
