What Conditions Can Gentle Myofascial Release Help With?

Most people experience pain at some point in their life.

Too many of us wake up to creaking, uncomfortable sensations throughout he body. We hesitate to bend to tie our shoes, struggle to pick up our kids and yelp when we reach for the plate on the top shelf.

It doesn’t need to be that way…

Many aches and pains can be overcome with a little bit of regular attention.

We all know movement is medicine, but what happens if it hurts too much to move?

Workouts can feel all but impossible when pain and stiffness is involved. Thats where Myofascial release comes in…

Many aches and pains are caused by adhesions in the muscles (myo) and connective tissue (fascia). Myofascial release releases the adhesions in the tissue so that the muscles can glide and slide like they’re meant to.

Self myofascial release and movement is a great place to start.

I have included several protocols to help break up the restrictions in your tissue and develop strength, stability and mobility to your joints.

Check them out below.

Hugh Norley | Gentle Myofascial Release Therapist

Hugh started his health and fitness journey when he was a teen and overcoming his own debilitating leg pain through movement and massage.

He discovered that the key to his pain was in the ‘Myofascia’.

Hugh completed a Diploma in Integrated Body Therapies in 2003; he then continued to deepen his study into Myofascial Release, by studying at many schools including Myofascial Release, Personal Training, Craniosacral therapy Fascial Stretch and Structural Integration (Rolfing).

His hands on technique began as ‘deep tissue’, then, with the birth of his 2 boys, found that he needed a more gentle style in order to help them.

Nowadays, his hands on sessions use gentle release techniques that focus on systematically releasing adhesions in the soft tissue. His technique is gentle enough to be used on everyone from children, through the elderly, yet so potent that athletes will fell the results from as little as one session.
