About
Myofascial Release is a technique that involves applying gentle sustained pressure into the connective tissue restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion and flexibility.

Using props such as blocks and balls we will work on opening the areas of the body that may limit our backbends such as quadriceps, psoas and chest. You will learn techniques that you can practice at home. We will combine this with a physical asana practice trying out different backbending poses.

With regular self myofascial release along with a yoga practice you will see increased flexibility, function, and performance of the body.

Some of the benefits of Myofascial release include:
​Corrects Muscle Imbalances.
Improves Joint Range of Motion
Relieves Muscle Soreness and Joint Stress.
Increases blood flow to the muscles and releases toxins trapped in the tissues.
Maintains normal functional muscular length
Release stored emotions through somatic recall
Speeds up the healing process for injuries
