Myofascial Release Therapy

Unlock Long-Term Relief with Myofascial Therapy

Tight fascia can cause chronic pain, stiffness, and movement restrictions—often misdiagnosed as joint or nerve issues. Our advanced myofascial therapy releases fascial adhesions, restores mobility, and retrains movement patterns for lasting relief.

The Next Level of Pain Relief and Performance

If you are dealing with chronic pain, sports injuries, or movement restrictions, your fascia could be the missing link.

At Mountain Movement, we specialize in Myofascial Therapy, a highly effective approach that addresses:

  1. Chronic Pain Conditions: Sciatica, frozen shoulder, plantar fasciitis, and more
  2. Sports Performance & Injury Recovery:  Restoring mobility and preventing future injuries
  3. Postural & Movement Dysfunction:  Correcting compensations that lead to pain
What is Myofascial Release Therapy?

Your body’s fascia is more than just a layer of connective tissue—it’s a dynamic system that affects movement, posture, pain, and even circulation. Fascia surrounds muscles, joints, nerves, and organs, creating an interconnected web that supports the body's structure and function.

Over time, due to injuries, poor posture, stress, repetitive motions, or inactivity, fascia can become tight, restricted, and inflamed, leading to:
Limited mobility – Difficulty moving freely due to fascial tightness.
Chronic pain patterns – Persistent pain that doesn’t respond to traditional treatments.
Muscle compensation & dysfunction – When tight fascia forces the body to move incorrectly, leading to strain and discomfort.

At Mountain Movement Center for Chiropractic & Natural Health, we take a holistic approach to Myofascial Release Therapy—combining chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and movement correction to restore full-body function and long-lasting relief.

💢 How Myofascial Restrictions Cause Pain

Fascia is designed to be flexible, strong, and resilient—but when it tightens, thickens, or develops adhesions, it can cause pain and movement dysfunction that won’t go away with stretching, massage, or traditional chiropractic alone.

Here’s how myofascial restrictions can silently contribute to chronic pain:

❌ Dysfunctional Nerve Signals

When fascia tightens around muscles and nerves, it disrupts normal neuromuscular communication. This can cause:
🔹 Muscle misfiring – Some muscles stop activating properly, leading to imbalances.
🔹 Compensatory movement patterns – Other muscles are forced to work harder than they should, leading to fatigue and pain.
🔹 Increased nerve sensitivity – Tight fascia can compress nerves, triggering burning, tingling, or radiating pain.

❌ Scar Tissue & Adhesions

After injuries, repetitive stress, or inflammation, fascia lays down scar tissue in an attempt to heal. Over time, this leads to:
🔹 Restricted movement – Scar tissue limits flexibility and range of motion.
🔹 Painful adhesions – Fascia sticks to muscles, nerves, and joints, pulling them out of alignment.
🔹 Chronic stiffness & tension – The body struggles to move freely, causing discomfort even at rest.

❌ Postural & Movement Faults

Poor posture, repetitive motions, or old injuries create long-term fascial imbalances that worsen over time:
🔹 Uneven muscle tension – Certain muscles overwork while others weaken, leading to chronic pain and instability.
🔹 Joint misalignment – Fascia pulls on joints, contributing to wear-and-tear, arthritis, and mobility loss.
🔹 Increased injury risk – A restricted body is less resilient, making injuries more likely and harder to heal from.

At Mountain Movement, we identify and correct these fascial restrictions at the root, restoring natural movement, reducing pain, and improving overall function.

You don't have to live with Sciatica & Nerve Pain
💢 Common Conditions We Treat with Myofascial Therapy

Myofascial restrictions can silently contribute to chronic pain, stiffness, and movement dysfunction—often misdiagnosed as joint or nerve issues. By targeting the fascia, muscles, and nervous system, our advanced myofascial therapy techniques help relieve pain and restore full-body function.

✅ Conditions We Treat with Myofascial Therapy:

🔹 Sciatica & Nerve Pain – Tight fascia can compress the sciatic nerve, causing radiating pain, numbness, and tingling.
🔹 Frozen Shoulder & Rotator Cuff Injuries – Myofascial adhesions limit mobility, leading to stiffness and chronic discomfort.
🔹 Lower Back Pain & Postural ImbalancesFascia tightness in the hips and spine can trigger persistent back pain.
🔹 Migraines & Tension HeadachesTight fascia in the neck, jaw, and shoulders can create headache patterns that won’t go away.
🔹 Carpal Tunnel Syndrome & TMJ Dysfunction – Restricted fascia compresses nerves, leading to wrist pain, jaw tension, and dysfunction.
🔹 Sports & Repetitive Strain Injuries – Myofascial therapy enhances recovery, prevents injuries, and restores peak performance.

Many patients come to us with diagnoses like arthritis or herniated discs, only to discover that fascia and muscle imbalances were the real issue.

💡 Our Myofascial Therapy Approach

Unlike traditional chiropractic care, massage therapy, or physical therapy, we focus on correcting movement dysfunctions at the root level. Our unique multi-step approach ensures you get lasting relief, not just temporary symptom relief.

Step 1: Functional Assessment 🏃‍♂️🔍

Every patient receives a thorough movement evaluation to identify the underlying cause of pain and dysfunction.

Posture & Gait Analysis – Evaluating how your posture and movement habits contribute to fascial restrictions.
Soft Tissue Palpation – Identifying scar tissue, trigger points, and fascial adhesions causing tension.
Motion Testing – Mapping out compensatory movement patterns that create pain and stiffness.

Step 2: Advanced Myofascial Release Techniques 🔬💆

We use a combination of proven soft tissue techniques to release restrictions, restore muscle activation, and retrain movement patterns.

MRT (Myofascial Release Therapy) – Hands-on, targeted fascial stretching and deep tissue work to free up movement.
IASTM (Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization) – Breaking down scar tissue and adhesions using precision tools.
Trigger Point Therapy – Direct pressure release for stubborn muscle knots causing referred pain.
Percussion Therapy – Enhancing circulation, muscle activation, and lymphatic drainage.
PNF (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation) – Retraining neuromuscular pathways to improve mobility.
Trigenics & Barnes MethodCutting-edge neurological muscle release techniques for deeper, longer-lasting relief.

Unlike traditional treatments, we don’t just loosen muscles—we retrain them to work correctly with fascia and nerves for lasting results.

FAQs

Pregnancy comes with a lot of questions—and we’re here for all of them. Whether it’s your first baby or your third, it’s normal to wonder how chiropractic fits into this journey. Below, we’ve answered the most common concerns we hear from expectant moms—so you can feel confident, informed, and supported every step of the way.

How will I lay on the table?

Our pregnancy tables “drop out” to accommodate your growing belly. Most moms lie face down comfortably until the third trimester, when we may shift to side-lying.

Is it gentle?

Yes—our techniques never involve pressure on your belly. You’ll feel safe, supported, and comfortable throughout your session.

Can I bring my kids to the appointment?

Yes! We love when moms bring their little ones. We even have a kids’ play area in the office.

What if I’m not in pain—can I still benefit?

Absolutely. Many moms report smoother births, less labor pain, and shorter delivery times when receiving regular chiropractic care during pregnancy.

Will this help me recover faster postpartum?

Most of our moms say yes. Care after birth helps realign the pelvis, support the core, and ease back into movement.

Can chiropractic care help with pregnancy-related pain?

Absolutely! Pregnancy can put extra stress on the spine, hips, and pelvis, leading to pain and discomfort. Chiropractic care during pregnancy can:

  • Reduce lower back and pelvic pain by ensuring proper spinal alignment.
  • Improve posture and balance to accommodate the baby’s growth.
  • Help with labor and delivery by optimizing pelvic alignment, potentially reducing the need for interventions.

We specialize in gentle pregnancy chiropractic techniques, making care safe and effective for expectant mothers. Many of our patients say they feel more mobile, more comfortable, and even sleep better after treatment!

Is chiropractic safe for newborns and infants?

Yes! Chiropractic care for infants is very gentle, using light fingertip pressure to address common issues like:

  • Colic and reflux – Adjustments can help regulate the nervous system and digestion.
  • Torticollis (neck tightness) – Gentle corrections improve head movement and prevent flat spots.
  • Sleep disturbances – Nervous system balance can promote better rest.

Adjustments for babies involve no cracking or force, just precise, soft pressure. Many parents notice improvements in their baby’s mood, digestion, and sleep after just a few visits.

Results We Often See

Chiropractic care during pregnancy can lead to decreased labor times, improved baby positioning (even in breech cases), better pelvic mobility and hip function, reduced back, rib, and pubic pain, and a stronger, faster postnatal recovery.

Dr. Day helped me during my second and third pregnancies—I had less pain, faster recovery, and a better overall experience.
