Myofascial Release

Fascia is the body's connective tissue network — a spiderweb-like structure that wraps around your muscles, bones, and organs. When it becomes tight or restricted, it can cause discomfort, limit mobility, and lead to long-term pain patterns. Myofascial release is a gentle, targeted technique that helps soften and lengthen this tissue, creating space for your body to move freely again. It’s ideal for people with chronic tightness, postural imbalances, or pain that hasn’t responded to other types of massage. This is slow, mindful work — more about feeling than force.

Identifying Fascial Restrictions

We begin by feeling for areas where your fascia may be restricted. This might show up as a sense of tightness, imbalance, or subtle resistance in the tissue. I’ll take the time to explore your body’s feedback and start mapping where we need to focus.

Fascia often holds tension long after muscles relax

Restrictions may cause pain far from the actual site

Assessment includes both visual posture checks and tactile listening

Sustained, Gentle Pressure

Using slow, steady holds and gentle pressure, I apply hands-on techniques that encourage the fascia to release. This isn’t about pressing hard — it’s about staying present and allowing the tissue to unwind naturally over time.

Apply light-to-moderate sustained pressure

Follow fascial lines and allow the body to guide the session

No oils are used — friction and contact are key to effectiveness

Great for chronic pain, postural tightness, or mobility restrictions

Supporting Movement and Integration

Once we’ve released fascial tension, we gently reintroduce movement to the area. I’ll share tips or stretches to help you maintain the newfound freedom. You may feel taller, looser, or simply more grounded after a session.

Restore natural movement patterns

Reduce feelings of stiffness or body ‘armouring’

Suggestions for gentle movement or breathwork post
