Description
Myofascial Release offers a comprehensive approach to fascial and soft tissue work, suitable for both students embarking on a career in hands-on therapy and experienced therapists looking to expand their skills. Ruth Duncan shares her expertise to provide in-depth descriptions of myofascial techniques and their applications.
This scientifically grounded book presents an overview of the entire fascial matrix, explaining its anatomy and function, and providing practitioners with the solid background needed to treat muscle injury, immobility, and pain. The book also outlines how myofascial release relates to other massage modalities, allowing therapists to incorporate a range of treatments.
With over 60 myofascial techniques described in detail, including photographs illustrating body and hand positions, this book provides nuanced explanations of soft tissue feel and the best approaches for specific injuries or issues. A new chapter on scar tissue is also included, along with home programs that clients can use between treatment sessions.
