Fascia is the soft tissue component of the connective tissue that provides support and protection for most structures within the human body, including muscle. By applying gentle but firm sustained pressure, myofascial release occurs in the connective tissue. This technique is good for people who have gone though some kind of trauma and they have pain or feel like they have limited range of motion.
Stretching techniques might also be used to move the fascia back to a healthy state, and can assist in bringing nutrients and eliminating toxins from the focus area.
