Myofascial Release

Tightness in muscles can restrict movement and cause pain. Myofascial release therapy is a treatment option to address muscular shortness and tightness to offer pain relief and improved function. Muscle tightness can occur in various areas of the body for many reasons. Our team at Medici Orthopaedics & Spine offers myofascial release therapy as one of our treatment modalities. We can help relieve chronic pain and facilitate rehabilitation for our patients in the greater Atlanta area.

Muscle tightness can be caused by an injury or surgery, but it also may occur in any area with soft tissue. The tightness or shortness of the muscles can cause pain and movement restriction. In some cases, the limited muscle movement may cause a patient to overuse one side of the body over another. They experience a pulling or pressure from the muscles that creates pain. Myofascial pain syndrome can cause intense pain, including chronic TMJ pain, headaches, back pain and carpal tunnel syndrome pain.

Relief from Muscle Pain

Myofascial release therapy focuses on stretching and loosening the fascia to relieve pain and improve movement. Myofascial pain is caused by tightness or damage to the skeletal muscles and connective tissues. Myofascial release therapy uses muscle manipulation, massage, stretching and other techniques to address tightness and trigger points in the muscles. This can involve in-clinic sessions and at-home exercises to help loosen muscles. It is often combined with other therapies and treatments to help resolve chronic pain.

What our patients say

Kevin Madden

Love Dr. Sonny and his practice. I appreciate the time he takes with me. I would rather him run late and take his time with me than rush me through. Pain is not something that’s a pleasure to deal with. I appreciate his knowledge and compassion. The surgical center is great too. Their staff is so caring! Thank you Dr. Sonny!

Ruth-Anne Hayes

Dr. Sonny and his staff are incredibly compassionate. They offer solutions that promote healing and support a healthy lifestyle. I trust them because I see the results in my life but mostly because they care. They know me by name. I cannot recommend this practice enough.
