By combining targeted fascial release with precise skeletal alignment, it helps the body achieve optimal balance, improved mobility, and lasting comfort.
True healing occurs when both soft tissues and the structural framework work in harmony — and this therapy is designed to restore that balance.
Myofascial Release Therapy is a gentle, hands-on technique that works with the fascia — the connective tissue surrounding your muscles, nerves, and organs. When this tissue becomes tight or restricted, it can affect how the body moves. By applying slow, sustained pressure to these areas, the therapist encourages the fascia to soften and regain flexibility.
This approach differs from traditional massage as it focuses on the deeper fascial layers that influence posture and movement. The gradual, precise techniques allow the connective tissue to release naturally, helping the body move with greater ease and reducing unnecessary tension.
Myoskeletal Therapy is a manual therapy approach that combines soft-tissue work, joint mobilisation, and neuromuscular techniques to support better structural alignment. It focuses on identifying tension or imbalance that may affect how the body moves or holds itself.
Through controlled and targeted techniques, the therapy helps improve the interaction between muscles, joints, and the nervous system. This encourages healthier movement patterns, more efficient muscle engagement, and reduced strain during everyday activities.
Releases deep fascial restrictions and muscle tension that often go untreated in traditional therapies, alleviating chronic discomfort effectively.
Restores elasticity in soft tissues and range of motion at joints, improving how the body moves rather than just relaxing it.
Enhances blood and lymphatic flow, supporting tissue healing, reducing inflammation, and promoting overall vitality.
Corrects structural and postural imbalances, enabling more efficient movement and reducing strain on muscles and joints.
Sustained, precise techniques release tension while activating the body’s natural relaxation response, combining therapeutic effectiveness with a sense of calm.
Every session begins with a comprehensive assessment to understand your body, its movement patterns, and areas of concern. We:
Evaluate posture and movement patterns – Assess how you sit, stand, walk, and perform daily activities to identify imbalances or compensatory movements.
Identify areas of muscle tightness, tension, and trigger points – Pinpoint specific muscles or fascia that contribute to discomfort or restricted mobility.
Assess structural alignment and joint mobility – Examine the alignment of your spine, pelvis, and joints to understand the underlying causes of pain or dysfunction.
Determine root causes of discomfort or dysfunction – Look beyond symptoms to uncover biomechanical or postural issues that may be contributing to long-term problems.
Design a personalised therapy plan – Based on findings, we create a program tailored specifically to your needs, combining immediate relief techniques with long-term corrective strategies.
Our therapy integrates both hands-on interventions and active engagement to promote lasting results:
Passive Release:
Apply gentle, targeted pressure to muscles and fascia to release tightness and improve tissue flexibility.
Techniques are adapted to your comfort level while optimising relaxation and reducing pain.
Helps improve blood flow, reduce inflammation, and prepare muscles for functional retraining.
Active Engagement:
Involves guided muscle movements and functional exercises to retrain proper movement patterns.
Restores coordination, strength, and stability in areas affected by tension or poor alignment.
Reinforces the effects of passive therapy, ensuring improvements are maintained in daily activities.
True healing extends beyond temporary relief. We empower you to maintain your results and prevent recurrence through:
Guided movement exercises – Specific routines targeting muscles and fascia to enhance mobility and reduce stiffness.
Postural coaching – Practical guidance on ergonomics, daily posture habits, and movement strategies to support spinal and joint health.
Muscle and fascia education – Learn how your body functions, where tension accumulates, and how to relieve it effectively.
Self-care strategies – Techniques and exercises you can integrate into daily life to maintain alignment, flexibility, and strength.
Prevention of future discomfort or injuries – By combining knowledge, movement training, and lifestyle guidance, we help you avoid recurring issues and support long-term musculoskeletal health.
We use light to moderate pressure, held for 90–120 seconds, with slow, sustained stretching — not forceful massage.
Enhances blood and lymphatic flow, supporting tissue healing, reducing inflammation, and promoting overall vitality.

Anyone experiencing musculoskeletal pain, tension, limited mobility, postural issues, or TMJ discomfort can benefit. It’s suitable for both active individuals and those with chronic conditions.
Yes — it is non-invasive, gentle, and tailored to your body. Therapists adjust techniques to your tolerance and condition, ensuring safety even for sensitive areas.
Sessions typically last between 45–60 minutes, depending on the treatment plan and areas being addressed. TMJ-focused sessions may include additional time for intraoral work and postural corrections.
Many clients experience improved mobility and reduced tension after the first session, but lasting results usually develop over multiple sessions as your body rebalances and relearns proper movement patterns.
Absolutely. By releasing fascial restrictions and retraining muscles and joints, this therapy improves posture, reduces strain, and enhances overall alignment.
Mild soreness or tenderness may occur after a session — similar to post-exercise sensations — but this usually resolves within 24–48 hours. No serious side effects are expected.
Yes. The therapy is adaptable for adults of all ages, including older adults. Techniques and pressure are modified to match the client’s needs and physical condition.
Frequency depends on your goals and condition. Acute pain may require 1–2 sessions per week, while maintenance or postural improvement may be bi-weekly or monthly. Your therapist will create a personalised plan.
Our experienced practitioners are all trained to pinpoint the root causes of your pain and provide treatment to help you reduce pain and recover faster.
