Myofascial tissue, consisting of dense, tough fibers, forms a three-dimensional web enveloping all muscles and bones. This manual therapy training course equips you with practical techniques, including ASTR (Active Soft Tissue Release), to break up scar tissue and myofascial adhesions. We focus on releasing adhesions by improving muscle gliding, joint capsule mobility, and addressing nerve entrapment.

Our myofascial release with stretching approach enhances joint mobility, proprioception, and achieves pain-free movement, engineered for dynamic postural stability. This technique is highly recommended for elders, post-operation recovery, and sports performance enhancement.

You will learn dynamic postural assessment focusing on functional anatomy and palpation to optimize client outcomes. Muscle tension causes myofascial strain, nerve entrapment, and joint capsule tightness, leading to chronic pain and poor posture. Using palpation and biomechanics, you can achieve optimal postural correction with myofascial release.

By applying gentle stretching, you will identify the end feel point, providing valuable information about the functionality of the joint and surrounding tissues. You will gain an understanding of the causes of pain and limited range of motion, and be able to provide optimized outcomes for your clients.

The core principle of Dynamic Myofascial Release (DMR) involves applying gentle, sustained pressure to myofascial connective tissue. Our manual therapy training also emphasizes the fascia's gliding between muscles for dynamic postural stability. This technique combines sustained pressure with dynamic stretching, releasing tension and nerve entrapment between the fascia's shallow and deep layers.

These actions stimulate proprioceptors for optimized movement. This unique skill set provides pain relief from myofascial adhesions, strain, and muscle tension, thereby improving joint flexibility and muscle glide. The result is smoother movements and enhanced dynamic postural stability.

Myofascial strain caused by muscle tension can lead to joint capsule tightness, resulting in joint misalignment, limited range of motion, and nerve entrapment. Our innovative Dynamic Myofascial Release method combines myofascial release with dynamic stretching to alleviate joint capsule tightness and myofascial strain.

This technique prevents overstretching and microdamage to muscle fibers, thereby reducing next-day soreness. Through our manual therapy training, you will acquire effective techniques to enhance range of motion and improve client outcomes. Adopting this unique approach will optimize your massage sessions for maximum effectiveness.

Dynamic myofascial release is highly effective in post-operative recovery phases. Surgical procedures can cause muscle and myofascial damage, altering their structure and function. This technique realigns muscle function and the myofascial system, optimizing overall movement mechanics.

It focuses on releasing adhesions in operated areas, facilitating a more functional and aligned recovery process. By addressing these surgical after-effects, dynamic myofascial release plays a crucial role in restoring post-surgical mobility and managing pain. This manual therapy helps improve range of motion and promotes a smoother rehabilitation journey.

RSM Myofascial Release techniques are uniquely designed for optimal relief of myofascial strain. These practical methods stem from Hironori Ikeda's extensive research into cadaver anatomy at Chiang Mai University's Faculty of Medicine, combined with his 25 years of work in sports medicine.

The image on the right shows pincer palpation to release adhesions and myofascial strain.
