What is Manual Soft Tissue Release?
Manual soft tissue release is a therapeutic technique used by chiropractors and manual therapists to relieve muscle tightness, improve flexibility, and restore function to the body. This hands-on treatment targets specific muscles, tendons, and fascia to break up adhesions, reduce scar tissue, and improve circulation. This style of treatment is especially effective for treating conditions like muscle strains, tendonitis, myofascial pain, and chronic muscle tension. By applying controlled pressure and specific movements to affected soft tissues, manual soft tissue release helps to release muscle knots, alleviate pain, and enhance mobility. Whether you're recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, or seeking relief from muscle stiffness, manual soft tissue release can complement your chiropractic care to promote faster healing, increase range of motion, and improve overall function. This technique is a valuable tool in sports medicine, injury recovery, and overall wellness.
