Myofascial Release Sunshine Coast
Restorative Myofascial Release Therapy on the Sunshine Coast
Looking for effective relief from muscle tightness, chronic pain, or mobility limitations? Myofascial Release Therapy (MRT) may be just what you’re in need of.
This hands-on therapy focuses on releasing tension in the fascia—connective tissue that surround and supports your entire body. When the fascia becomes tight or restricted, it can lead to pain and limit movement. By applying gentle, sustained pressure to specific areas, MRT helps reduce tension, improve circulation, and support natural healing in the body. Our approach blends traditional MRT techniques, followed by gentle movements to allow your body to adjust to, and adapt to the changes that have occurred.

Myofascial Release Can Benefit People Who:
Myofascial Release helps to calm an overactive nervous in those with persistent pain, thus promoting healing. MRT also helps to release restricted fascia that may be associated with low back pain, shoulder pain, hip pain, or pain elsewhere in the body.

Myofascial Release helps by relaxing and lengthening the fascial tissue, enhancing flexibility and allowing for smoother, more unrestricted movement​.

Myofascial Release Therapy can help alleviate jaw pain and tension associated with the TMJ by releasing tightness in the facia and neck and head muscles that may be contributing to TMJ issues.

Myofascial Release Therapy differs from a regular massage in both technique and focus. While a regular massage generally targets muscles, MRT specifically targets the fascia, a web-like connective tissue that surrounds muscles and all other tissue. Tight or restricted fascia can lead to pain and limited mobility. MRT uses slow, sustained pressure applied directly to the fascia (and muscles), aiming to release restrictions in these connective tissues.
-
The number of sessions varies depending on the individual's needs and the severity of the condition. Some people notice improvement after just one session, but a series of treatments is often recommended to achieve longer-lasting results, especially for chronic or deep-seated issues.
-
During an MRT session, your therapist will apply sustained pressure to targeted areas of tension, which may include the use of hand or elbows. Sessions are generally slow-paced, and some clients may feel mild discomfort as tension releases, but it’s usually a relieving sensation.
Your session may be supplemented by some gentle, slow movement to allow your body to consolidate and adapt to the changes that it went through via the MFR treatment.
