Myofascial Release Therapy

A technique used by all Juniper RMTs

Myofascial release works on the fascia — the connective tissue that surrounds and supports every muscle, bone, and organ in your body. When fascia becomes tight or restricted due to injury, stress, repetitive movement, or poor posture, it can cause pain and limit movement in ways that are hard to pinpoint.

Myofascial release uses sustained, gentle pressure to soften these restrictions — releasing tension not just in the muscle itself, but in the surrounding tissue that holds it in place.

What Can Myofascial Release Help With?

• Persistent pain that doesn't respond to conventional massage

• Tightness or pulling sensations that feel deep or hard to reach

• Restricted movement or flexibility

• Tension headaches and neck pain

• Postural strain and chronic holding patterns

• Recovery from injury where surrounding tissue has tightened

How It's Used at Juniper

Myofascial release is one of several techniques your therapist may draw on during a session. After an initial assessment, you and your therapist will discuss what feels most appropriate — and that plan can change throughout the treatment based on how your body responds.

You're always in the conversation. Speak up about what feels helpful and what doesn't.
