Latest Research on Pain and Wellbeing

Myofascial Release

Myofascial release (MFR) is becoming increasingly popular, with recent research showing how it can help ease chronic pain, improve movement, and bring a deep sense of relaxation. It works by gently releasing tension in the fascia—the connective tissue that wraps around every muscle and organ in your body.

A 2023 study published in The Journal of Bodywork and Movement Therapies found that regular MFR sessions made a big difference for people living with chronic back pain and fibromyalgia. They reported feeling less pain, more freedom of movement, and an overall improvement in their quality of life. Other research suggests it also helps reduce inflammation, boost circulation, and calm the nervous system, helping you feel more balanced and grounded.

The beauty of myofascial release is that it looks at the bigger picture. It is not just about relaxing tight muscles—it works on the deeper layers of tension in your body, helping to release long-held restrictions and restore natural flow and ease.
