Myofascial release\u00a0is a type of bodywork which employs a steady, constant physical pressure, working through restricted areas in the soft tissues of the body, mainly muscular and connective tissues.<\/p>\n

The phrase \u201cmyofascial\u201d is derived from two words. \u201cMyo\u201d is from the Greek word \u201cmy\u201d, referring to \u201cmuscle.\u201d \u201cFascial\u201d is from the Latin word \u201cfascia\u201d, meaning \u201cbandage\u201d. Fascia refers to a type of connective tissue that encompasses the entire body, while encasing each individual structure in the body. So every bone, every muscle, every organ, every vein, every artery has a layer of fascia that runs around it.<\/p>\n
