Myofascial Release is a sophisticated form of stretching and pressure techniques that release restrictions in the web of connective tissue that supports, connects and protects the muscles, nerves and joints. This web is also believed to store memory of physical and emotional trauma. Myofascial Release may increase flexibility, decrease pain, and release these stored emotions that have manifested physically.
This 30 hour module explores the effect of various stretches, targeting the superficial myofascia. The course offers treatment protocols for addressing the superficial myofascia, using classic MFR stretches and unwinding techniques as well as Proprioceptor Neuromuscular Facilitation PNF. Students will learn to recognize distortions in the myofascia, the four “periods” of myofascial release, as well as the mechanisms of tissue repair and healing within the myofascial system. Students will learn to do a stand alone MFR session as well as how to integrate MFR techniques into a Swedish session. The course also addresses emotional states that may arise with this type of work.
