Myofascial Release Therapy at Danbury Chiropractic & Wellness
Understanding Myofascial Release Therapy
Myofascial Release Therapy is a specialized, hands-on treatment used to alleviate muscle tension, restricted movement, and chronic pain caused by tight or dysfunctional fascia. Fascia is the connective tissue that surrounds muscles, nerves, and joints, playing a vital role in movement and overall body function.
When stress, poor posture, injury, or repetitive strain causes the fascia to become stiff or inflamed, it can create discomfort, limit mobility, and contribute to chronic pain conditions. Myofascial Release Therapy works by applying gentle, sustained pressure to targeted areas, allowing the fascia to relax and regain flexibility. This process improves circulation, restores movement, and enhances overall well-being.
What Causes Myofascial Pain?
Myofascial pain can develop from various factors, including:
✔️ Poor posture or prolonged sitting
✔️ Repetitive motions (e.g., work-related activities, sports)
✔️ Injuries from accidents or overuse
✔️ Stress and muscle tension
✔️ Scar tissue or post-surgical adhesions
✔️ Nutritional deficiencies or dehydration
When fascia becomes tight, it can form trigger points—localized areas of stiffness or tenderness that can refer pain to other parts of the body.
Common Conditions Treated with Myofascial Release
At Danbury Chiropractic & Wellness, we have successfully used Myofascial Release Therapy to help patients suffering from:
🔹 Neck & Back Pain – Including tension-related discomfort and stiffness
🔹 Headaches & Migraines – Alleviating muscular tension that contributes to chronic headaches
🔹 Sciatica & Nerve Pain – Reducing compression on nerves for improved mobility
🔹 Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis) – Improving flexibility and decreasing pain
🔹 TMJ Disorders – Relieving jaw tension and associated pain
🔹 Carpal Tunnel Syndrome – Addressing muscle tightness and nerve compression
🔹 Sports Injuries & Muscle Strains – Enhancing recovery and reducing scar tissue formation
🔹 Post-Surgical Recovery – Improving tissue mobility and reducing post-op stiffness
By targeting the root cause of tension and restrictions, myofascial release helps restore movement and reduce pain naturally.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your Myofascial Release Therapy session at Danbury Chiropractic & Wellness will begin with a thorough evaluation by Dr. Jared DiLorenzo to identify areas of restriction and muscle tightness. Treatment may include:
✔️ Gentle, hands-on pressure to release fascial restrictions
✔️ Stretching and movement therapy to improve flexibility
✔️ Soft tissue techniques to enhance circulation and healing
✔️ Guidance on posture and at-home care to maintain long-term results
Most patients find the treatment relaxing and highly effective, with noticeable improvements in mobility and pain relief after just a few sessions.
