Myofascial Release

Unlock Lasting Relief with Myofascial Release at Levan Physical Therapy

Are you living with chronic pain, tightness, or restricted movement that doesn’t seem to go away? These symptoms may be caused by tension in your myofascial tissues—the connective tissue network surrounding your muscles and organs. At Levan Physical Therapy, we offer Myofascial Release (MFR) as a gentle, hands-on technique to target these problem areas and relieve pain at its source.

Myofascial restrictions can result from injury, poor posture, inflammation, or surgery. Our licensed physical therapists use specialized manual techniques to identify and release these tight bands, helping you move more freely and comfortably.

Common Causes of Myofascial Pain

Myofascial dysfunction can develop due to a wide range of factors, including:

Repetitive strain or overuse injuries

Poor posture and prolonged sitting

Trauma from accidents or falls

How Levan Physical Therapy Treats Myofascial Release

At Levan Physical Therapy, our MFR sessions are tailored to your unique needs and pain points. Here’s what to expect:

  • Detailed evaluation of posture, mobility, and pain referral patterns

  • Hands-on techniques to gently stretch and release fascia restrictions

  • Sustained pressure applied to specific trigger points

  • Combination therapy with stretching, strengthening, or dry needling as needed

  • Education on posture, ergonomics, and self-care strategies

This approach not only alleviates pain but also improves circulation, reduces inflammation, and restores normal movement patterns.

    FAQ

    Manual therapy is a hands-on treatment where therapists use skilled movements to treat soft tissues and joints. It’s used to reduce pain, increase flexibility, and restore function.

    Some techniques may feel slightly uncomfortable, especially in tight or tender areas, but most patients report relief, not pain. Your therapist adjusts pressure based on your comfort.

    While massage is usually general and for relaxation, manual therapy is clinically targeted and performed by licensed physical therapists to treat specific physical issues.

    It varies. Some patients notice improvement in just 2–3 visits, while others with chronic conditions may benefit from ongoing sessions as part of a broader treatment plan.

    Yes! We often combine manual therapy with therapeutic exercises to reinforce movement improvements and help you recover faster.
