Have you ever wondered why sometimes when you get a massage it feels good at the time, but leaves no lasting benefits? While massage works on muscle tissue, it often misses your connective tissue.  Connective tissue surrounds muscle tissue and holds it in place, so if it doesn’t get relaxed along with the muscles, the effects of your massage don’t last as long. Myofascial massage creates structural changes that help you work toward releasing patterns of pain or stiffness even if they have been with you for years. We incorporate myofascial techniques, often referred to as structural integration or myo massage that helps to stretch and relax your connective tissue along with your muscles for longer lasting benefits.
