Soft Tissue Work:
As part of the various hands-on techniques, Soft tissue mobilization is done to regain movement and function. Various techniques are employed under this umbrella such as muscle energy techniques, manual trigger point release techniques, soft tissue stretching and mobilization with movement for joints and soft-tissue.

Myofascial Release:

Fascia can tighten up and cause reduction of movement. Myofascial release is used to loosen this tightness and to promote better blood flow, healing and movement.
