Who can benefit from Myofascial Release?

Myofascial Release requires intense one-on-one treatment time. More traditional physical therapy treatments which are less labor intensive should always be tried first to avoid over-treatment. Myofascial Release is highly effective in treating patients with the following diagnoses.

Back strain, chronic back pain, low back pain, thoracic back pain
Carpal tunnel syndrome
Chronic cervical pain
Complex pain complaints
Dizziness, vertigo
Fibromyalgia
Fibrositis
Headache
Myofascial pain dysfunction
Plantar fasciitis
Post-Polio symptoms
Thoracic outlet syndrome
TMJ dysfunction
Trigger points, tender points *
Whiplash

* Trigger Points and tender points cause different types of pain. For example, a Trigger Point in the neck muscles can cause headaches, the sensation of your throat closing or eye pain. Pressure on a Trigger Point causes increased pain at the site and radiating pain in other apparently unrelated parts of the body. Pressure on a tender point causes increased pain only at the tender point itself.
