Positional Release Technique

Many practices will preach the benefits of massage therapy, and how it can eliminate pain and restore a person’s quality of life.  While this is true, there are certain ways to get the most out of massage therapy. This is where the positional release technique comes into play.

Pairing the positional release technique with massage therapy helps patients achieve optimal healing results. It allows our staff to unwind problematic tissue before manipulating it, creating a less painful and more effective experience.  This technique also promotes longer-lasting therapeutic results.

Instead of applying large amounts of pressure to constricted muscles, our therapists work to relieve tension and increase flexibility in the tissue before more intensive treatment is administered.  It involves moving the affected body part away from the restricted motion barrier towards a position of comfort. Once the release of tension is felt, the body is returned to your normal position.
