Myofascial Release for Chronic Pain Relief

When the connective tissue surrounding your muscles becomes tight or restricted, it can cause pain, limit mobility, and create tension patterns throughout your body.

Common conditions treated with myofascial release:
• Chronic muscle pain and stiffness
• Fibromyalgia
• Headaches and migraines
• Back and neck pain
• Post-surgical scar tissue
• Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain
• Plantar fasciitis
• Repetitive strain injuries
Our physiotherapists use gentle, sustained pressure to release fascial restrictions.

At Tonic Physio Milton, we address the root cause of chronic muscle tension. Whether you have long-standing pain or recent restrictions, we provide gentle, effective myofascial release.
How Myofascial Release Works
Myofascial release uses gentle, sustained pressure and stretching to release tension in the fascia.
Our treatment includes:
• Fascial Assessment: Identifying areas of tightness, restriction, and abnormal tissue texture.
• Gentle Pressure: Applying sustained, gentle pressure to release fascial restrictions without forcing tissues.
• Stretching Techniques: Long, gentle stretches to elongate fascia and restore mobility.
• Postural Education: Teaching self-release techniques and postural awareness to maintain results.
We adjust the pressure and techniques based on your comfort and tissue response.
