Myofascial Release

Myofascial release therapy is a unique treatment approach. Unlike a traditional massage that works on the surface muscles, myofascial release works deeper, targeting the fascia—the connective tissue surrounding muscles and organs. Our myofascial release therapists apply sustained, gentle pressure to these areas, helping to release tensions and contractions. Often, this therapy is combined with additional treatments such as Sports Performance Care and Chiropractic Adjustment and Joint Rehabilitation, truly addressing the body's needs. Whether you're an athlete in need of performance care or someone seeking chronic pain relief, our integrated approach can provide you the help you need.

Absolutely! At Denver Spine & Performance, we believe in a holistic and integrative approach. This means that based on your individual therapeutic needs and goals, our skilled myofascial release massage therapists may recommend combining your myofascial release treatment with other techniques such as Dry Needling. This integration of therapies can enhance the overall effect and provide faster, more efficient relief from pain or mobility issues. Each treatment plan is personalized, ensuring you get treatments that are most effective for your unique concerns. Please consult with our team to evaluate your needs and generate the best treatment plan for you.

Common causes of myofascial pain predominantly include inflammation, tension, and trauma. Inflammation, an overzealous response of the body's immune system to injury or infection, can trigger this pain. Prolonged tension stemming from poorly stretched muscle or poor posture can culminate in persistent pain. Lastly, physical trauma owing to excessive workout strain or other causes can prompt myofascial discomfort, requiring medical attention for relief.
