Structural Fasciatherapy / Myofascial Release

Fasciatherapy is aimed at fasciae, membranes of connective tissue which cover, separate, protect and support the muscles and organs. Present from head to toe and from deep to superficial, they connect the regions of the body.
With repetitive movements, poor posture, chronic pain or stress, the fascia can become tense and form chains creating tension and pain, sometimes in distant areas.

Our practice combines several complementary techniques:

Gentle tensioning: follows the tissue response to release tension deep within.
Mobilizations & stretches: restore gliding and elasticity to the fascia.
Myofascial relaxation: more intense in areas of density/fibrosis.

This synergy allows:

• improved circulation and a reduction in edema,

• restored tissue flexibility,

• a reduction in pain and stiffness,

• Fewer compensations and more ease in daily life.

The fascia also reacts to psychological stress; it can retain emotional imprints of trauma. Releasing these areas often results in overall relaxation and regulation.

Main benefits

• Reduction of tension/pain

• Improved mobility and circulation

• Reduction of postural compensations

• Prevention of recurrences

Each session is unique and tailored to your tissues, your tolerance, and your goals. Depending on your needs, we combine fasciatherapy (gentle) and myofascial (deeper) techniques, either alone or with other massage techniques.

After an assessment (areas of tension/stiffness/restrictions), the therapist uses oil-free manual techniques to loosen the fascia and reduce tension. This results in improved circulation and energy stimulation.
Everyone can benefit from it: acute injuries (inflammation/edema), chronic injuries (back, epicondylitis), sports injuries, repetitive postures/gestures, scars, circulatory problems, digestive or gynecological disorders* (if visceral indicated), scoliosis, migraines/headaches.
