Myo-Fascial Release...

    is my main course of study. This form of massage can be used for a more therapeutic result. It can be combined either with deep tissue or trigger point therapy, and I have also managed to blend it into relaxation Swedish massages as well.  This type of massage is what I believe really allows for a tailored session.  Your fascia leads the way as it unwinds so no two sessions are alike.

What is Fascia?

   Fascia is a very intricate connective tissue that extends without interruption from the top of your head to the tip of your toes.  It also entwines throughout all other tissues and organs down to the cellular level. It pretty much holds the body in its shape, and holds your organs in their places.  Since this tissue creates the boundaries for all of your body parts, it has to be moved and/or stretched in order to have a positive lasting effect on the actual muscle tissue, or alignment of your bones. 

 What is Myo-Fascial Release?

    This is the practice of stretching and moving fascia in a way that creates enough space within your body to allow healing. There is a wide range of pressures that can be used in order to achieve a release.  Either way it is a slow moving, patient technique that really allows your body to be in charge of every direction the therapist should move.  It also allows your entire body to become relaxed even while targeting one specific area.
