Myofascial release (MFR) is a specialized manual therapy technique that targets the fascia, a connective tissue covering muscles and other structures in the body. MFR aims to release tension and restrictions in the fascia to promote healing and alleviate pain. It involves applying sustained pressure and stretching to specific areas to facilitate the release of tightness and restore mobility. MFR is commonly used to treat chronic pain conditions, muscular imbalances, and postural issues. It is typically performed by trained physical therapists or massage therapists with expertise in myofascial release techniques.
