What is Myofascial (Fascia) Release?
Myofascial release is a type of therapy that focuses on relieving tension in the fascia, which is the connective tissue that surrounds muscles and organs in the body. Think of fascia as a stretchy, web-like material that holds everything together. When this tissue becomes tight or restricted, it can lead to pain and discomfort.

Reduced Muscle Tension: It helps to relax tight muscles, leading to overall relaxation.
