The goal of myofascial release is to release tension and restore balance to the body, allowing for improved function and mobility.

Myofascial release is a form of physical therapy that involves applying sustained pressure to the connective tissue to alleviate pain and increase range of motion. It is a non-invasive and gentle technique that can be used to treat a variety of conditions.

The IASTM stands for Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization. It is a physical therapy technique that involves using specialized tools to apply pressure and manipulate soft tissue to promote healing and it can help reduce muscle soreness and stiffness, increase range of motion, improve circulation, and promote faster healing of soft tissue injuries and relieve pain.

Acupuncture involves the insertion of very thin needles through your skin at strategic points on your body. A key component of traditional chinese medicine, acupuncture is most used to treat pain. Increasingly, it is being used for overall wellness, including stress management. Acupuncture is believed to flow through pathways (meridians) in your body. By inserting needles into specific points along these meridians, acupuncture practitioners believe that your energy flow will re-balance.

 In contrast, many western practitioners view the acupuncture points as places to stimulate nerves, muscles and connective tissue. Some believe that this stimulation boosts your body's natural painkiller.
