Myofascial Release (MFR)
Myofascial Release (MFR) is a safe, comprehensive and highly effective approach to relieving pain and restoring motion. If you’re in Kelowna and dealing with chronic pain, muscle tension, or restricted mobility, Myofascial Release could be the solution you’ve been looking for. Tia Cherneski has been trained in the John F. Barnes style of myofascial release, which is widely regarded as one of the most effective methods for addressing fascial restrictions and chronic pain. This approach targets the root cause of your pain resulting in long lasting healing.
What is fascia?
Fascia is the connective tissue that surrounds our entire anatomy and sinks into and envelopes every structure including our muscles, bones, nerves, organs, and blood vessels. Trauma, stress, injuries, surgeries, infections all can cause restrictions in the fascial system resulting in pulls, strains, and pressure on any or all of these underlying structures. Over time and with further restrictions, the fascia begins to tighten and lose its adaptive capacity and pain and dysfunction can spread to areas far from the original injury. Eventually the fascial system can become so restricted that it mimics a “straight jacket” on our system causing pain, discomfort, and widespread symptoms.
What is Myofascial Release and How Does it Work?
MFR is a manual therapy technique that works to release restrictions and tension in the fascia. This approach addresses the whole body, with the understanding that everything is connected through this fascial web. The John Barnes Myofascial Release method focuses on the interconnectedness of the body, ensuring that the root causes of pain are addressed, even if they aren’t immediately obvious – “treat the symptoms but look elsewhere for the cause”.
MFR sessions differ from most other massage techniques because it’s performed directly on the skin without oil or lotion. This allows the therapist to engage the fascia, and sink into the barriers and restricted areas without slipping. Each MFR session in Kelowna involves an assessment of your fascia to identify tight or restricted areas, specialized techniques are then used to release tension and help you achieve better mobility, less pain, and improved overall well-being.
