Abstract

Myofascial release is aimed at releasing (unraveling) torsion of fascia, not only at expanding fascia. Moderate expansion applied to myofascial restriction induces heat, improves lymphatic drainage, reconstructs myofascial tissues, and resets the sensibility mechanism of soft tissue proprioceptor, that is the most important. These activities result in reprogramming of the central nervous system. In combination with exercise therapy or neurodevelopmental approach, myofascial release will allow patients to learn new movements and to apply the movements to elaborate functional activities, resulting in a forward step to obtain independent function. Accomplishment of optimal function and performance with the minimum energy expenditure is the final goal.
