Myofascial Release Massage

Easy to learn. Immediate Results.

Myofascial tissue is continuous and omnipresent in the body. It interweaves and wraps muscles, and every division of tissue within the muscle. By weight, 40% of a muscle is actually fascial tissue.

Where there is chronic or acute pain, limited or difficult range of motion, ongoing stress and tension, there is almost always myofascial tissue which needs to be released and relaxed.

Using the Myofascial Release Massage technique you will often be able to release constricted myofascial tissue faster and more completely than you ever thought possible.

"Taking these newly-learned techniques back to my practice allowed me to accomplish more with some people in a single session than I had been able to during months of weekly sessions before I took these seminars."

— James Dahler, North Canton, Ohio

Your clinical success is our goal.
Theory comes alive through practice.

The Myofascial Release Massage Seminars are taught in a way that you can successfully use what you learned with your first therapeutic or relaxation client on Monday morning. That's because every stroke is demonstrated at least twice and more than 75% of each seminar is hands-on practice.

The instructor and teaching assistants give each student individual attention for every therapeutic stroke taught until we're sure you've learned it. Learn more about why you should invest your time and money in learning the Myofascial Release Massage.
