How to Use Massage Therapy and Myofascial Release for Improved Flexibility

Massage therapy and myofascial release are techniques that focus on soft tissues. At Advanced Chiropractic & Wellness in Stillwater, we offer massage therapy and myofascial release, along with chiropractic adjustments.

What is Massage Therapy?

Massage therapy is a type of massage performed for therapeutic purposes. In simple terms, the practitioner uses kneading, stroking, and rubbing massage techniques to treat or relieve symptoms such as pain, stress, and muscle tension, and promote healing after an injury and flexibility.

What is Myofascial Release?

Myofascial release is a type of massage therapy that focuses on the myofascial. The myofascial tissue supports and wraps around every muscle in the body. When the myofascial becomes tight, it can cause pain and limit motion.

How Massage Therapy Can Improve Flexibility

Massage therapy has many benefits, including improving flexibility. Several ways that massage therapy and myofascial release can help you become more flexible:

1. Decreased Pain: Massage therapy provides pain relief, making it easier to continue stretching exercises.

2. Reduced Inflammation: Massage therapy reduces inflammation, decreasing stiffness and improving range of motion.

3. Breaking Down Adhesions: Adhesions limit the range of motion, and myofascial release can release these adhesions, promoting freedom of movement.

4. Increasing Temperature and Elasticity: Massage therapy increases the temperature and elasticity of your muscles, enhancing flexibility.

5. Detoxifying: Massage therapy helps detoxify muscles, further increasing the range of motion.
