Myofascial Release

Myofascial release is a hands-on bodywork technique in which a therapist applies slow, sustained pressure to the fascia, the connective tissue that wraps muscles, with the aim of easing tightness and restoring movement. People mostly look at it for muscle tension and soreness, but little research on it has been reviewed here so far, so there are no findings to report yet. Until that changes, anything said about how well it works would be guesswork rather than evidence.
