Customized Massage

Still Feel "Stuck," No Matter What You've Tried?

If you've tried other therapies and still feel restricted, tight, or in pain, myofascial release may be exactly what your body needs. It's a slow, sustained technique that targets your fascia — the web-like connective tissue surrounding your muscles and organs — gently releasing restrictions that cause chronic pain, tightness, and limited mobility.

Myofascial release may be available within your Customized Massage — just ask your therapist when you book.

Quick Facts

  • Relieves chronic pain and tension
  • Increases range of motion and flexibility
  • Helps break up adhesions and scar tissue
  • Especially effective for injuries, postural imbalances, and repetitive strain
  • Gentle and deeply effective without aggressive pressure

What Makes Myofascial Release Different

Your therapist uses slow, sustained pressure and specific holds to allow your fascia to naturally soften and lengthen — without forcing or rushing your body. There's no oil used, and the work is often quiet, still, and deeply focused. It's subtle, but powerful.

Unlike traditional massage that targets muscle tissue through strokes and pressure, myofascial release focuses on the connective tissue that surrounds and supports those muscles.

Myofascial Release Is Great For

  • Chronic neck, shoulder, or back pain
  • TMJ or jaw tightness
  • Plantar fasciitis or tight calves
  • Repetitive use injuries (carpal tunnel, tendinitis)
  • Post-surgical adhesions and scar tissue
  • Fibromyalgia and other pain syndromes
  • Poor posture or spinal imbalances
  • Headaches or migraines
  • Restricted movement or stiffness
  • Stress-related body tension

Is It Right for You?

If you've tried other therapies and still feel "stuck," restricted, or in pain, myofascial release may be exactly what your body needs. It's especially helpful if you're dealing with chronic conditions, injury recovery, or long-standing muscular imbalances. Sessions are gentle but focused — perfect if you're seeking real change without deep, aggressive pressure.

Our highly trained therapists understand the nuances of fascia and how it affects everything from pain to posture. We blend science and intuition to create a calm, grounded session that helps your body release at its own pace — no forcing, no rushing, just effective relief.

What to Expect During Your Myofascial Release Session

Consultation & Intake

Your therapist reviews your concerns, posture, and movement patterns, and may ask about injuries or surgeries to better understand how your fascia is affecting your body.

Clothed or Draped Work

Myofascial work is done without lotion or oil, so your therapist can anchor into the fascia. You may remain partially clothed, or fully draped, depending on the area being addressed.

Sustained Pressure & Stillness

Your therapist applies gentle, sustained holds, waiting for your tissue to respond. There's no "kneading" — just deep connection, slow release, and focused presence.

Tuning In

You may be asked to breathe, notice sensations, or lightly engage muscles to help the process along — a collaborative, body-aware approach to healing.

Results Over Time

You might feel relief after one session, but the real power of myofascial release builds over time — each session helps your body unwind more deeply and restore balance.

After Your Massage

It's normal to feel looser, lighter — or even emotionally released — after a session. Drink water, rest if you can, and notice changes in your posture, breathing, or pain patterns over the next few days. Soreness is possible as old tension unravels, but it should subside quickly.

  • Have open wounds, burns, or skin infections
  • Are recovering from recent surgery or radiation
  • Have active varicose veins or blood clots
  • Have a fever, severe inflammation, or an infection
  • Are dealing with acute fractures or severe osteoporosis
