Myofascial release is a form of bodywork that takes into account the whole body. Fascia intertwines not just through our muscles but through our whole body including the organs, nerves, spinal cord, skin and bones. If you have pain in one area of the body the cause may be coming from a myofascial dysfunction in another area of the body. Myofascial release is the most useful and safest form of treatment for conditions such as: sprains, tight muscles, aching muscles, headaches, jaw pain, back pain including disc injuries, neck pain, shoulder injuries and many more. #Physical_therapy_near_me #Therapy_specialists

Dry needling involves inserting fine needles into muscle tissue, ligaments or tendons. It can be helpful in releasing chronically tight muscles and also muscles in spasm. This allows exercises to be performed more effectively and the pain cycle can be broken. The needle is inserted into the muscle and a twitch response is elicited from the muscle. This twitch means that the muscle is ‘releasing’ and the needle will continue to be manipulated until the twitch ceases. A pain referral pattern may also be experienced during treatment from the trigger point. Dry needling can be used on a variety of patients to treat back pain, neck pain, shoulder injuries, knee injuries, etc. #Austin_physical_therapy #Physical_therapy
