Targeted Myofascial Therapy for Recovery and Mobility

Muscular and myofascial therapies are essential for relieving muscle tightness, restoring healthy movement patterns, and reducing pain caused by soft-tissue dysfunction. These treatments work hand-in-hand with chiropractic care to improve mobility, enhance recovery, and support long-term wellness. By addressing both the muscle and the connective tissue (fascia), our providers help you move more freely and feel better, faster.

Muscular & Myofacial Therapy

Myofascial release is a broad category of soft-tissue techniques designed to reduce tension, break up adhesions, and restore proper muscle function. Since muscles and fascia often tighten or become restricted due to injury, posture, or repetitive stress, releasing these tissues is a key part of relieving pain and improving mobility.

These gentle or targeted techniques help:

Improve blood flow

Reduce muscle knots and adhesions

Restore flexibility

Decrease inflammation

Support better posture and movement

Myofascial release is highly effective on its own, but it also enhances the results of chiropractic adjustments and strengthening programs.

What Is Myofascial Release?

Trigger point therapy targets highly sensitive “knots” within muscle tissue—spots that often radiate pain to other areas of the body. By applying deep, sustained manual pressure to these trigger points, we help the muscle fibers relax and lengthen.

Trigger Point Therapy (TrPT)

How Trigger Point Therapy Helps You

This technique is ideal for patients dealing with:

Chronic muscle tightness

Tension headaches

Neck, back, or shoulder pain

Repetitive strain injuries

Radiating or referred pain patterns

Trigger point therapy is one of the fastest ways to reduce muscular discomfort and restore proper muscle function.

IASTM uses specialized metal tools to glide across the muscles and fascia, helping identify and break down tight areas. This technique works similarly to trigger point therapy but allows deeper, more precise pressure without overloading the clinician’s hands.

Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization

Benefits of IASTM

IASTM is especially effective for:

Chronic tightness

Muscle strains

Tendon pain

Overuse injuries

Post-surgical scar tissue

Patients often experience improved mobility, decreased pain, and enhanced tissue healing after treatment.

Many soft-tissue treatments include an active component, where the patient performs controlled movements or engages specific muscles while the therapist applies pressure.

This approach:

Improves muscle activation

Reinforces healthy movement patterns

Speeds up tissue recovery

Helps the body “retrain” proper function

By blending active and passive techniques, we help normalize muscle function and create long-lasting improvements.

Active Myofascial Techniques

Our doctors hold advanced certifications from RockTape and FAKTR, allowing them to tailor each myofascial session to your specific condition, mobility level, and goals. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, dealing with chronic tightness, or looking to improve athletic performance, your treatment plan is fully customized to your body.
