Advanced Myofascial Release Therapy is an elite manual therapy that treats problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and nerves most commonly caused by overuse or repetitive movements. Overuse injuries can result from repetitive athletic movements (running, golfing, biking, weightlifting, dancing, etc) repetitive occupational demands, static poor posture, or unresolved past injuries. Over-use or repetitive stress causes accumulated micro-traumas which create chronic irritation and decreases oxygen to the tissues. This results in tissues creating micro tears that do not heal properly and lay down dense tough scar tissue. This scar tissue prevents proper tissue movement, and causes muscle to shorten creating the feeling of weakness or an inability to perform once normal activities. Many times, the nerves can get entrapped within the dense scar tissue and creates the sensation of numbness and tingling in the body. This is a sign of a more severe condition that needs more urgent attention. All tendonitis injuries, neck and back pain, headaches, carpal tunnel syndrome, shin splints, shoulder pain, sciatica, IT band syndrome, plantar fasciitis, knee problems, and tennis elbow are just a few of the many conditions that can be resolved quickly and permanently with Advanced Myofascial Release Therapy.
