Myofascial Release
Easing tension in a muscle and the connective tissue around it with slow pressure techniques. It is preferred where muscle stiffness has lasted a long time.
How the treatment runs
- 1
An initial assessment: listening to the complaint, then measuring range of motion and muscle strength.
- 2
Agreeing the session frequency and the goals for myofascial release together with the patient.
- 3
Delivering the sessions and repeating the measurements at the end of each one.
- 4
Handing over the home exercise programme and scheduling the review appointment.
Other treatments in this department
Manual Therapy Session
Hands-on treatment delivered by the physiotherapist, targeting the joint and the soft tissue around it. It is used to open up restricted movement and reduce pain.
Joint Mobilisation
Reopening a restricted joint through controlled, graded movements. It is applied often at the shoulder, hip and ankle.
Kinesio Taping
Supporting a muscle or joint with elastic tape. It shifts how load is shared without restricting movement, and is usually combined with exercise.
