Focused tension release to address musculoskeletal imbalances and prevent athletic injury for growing kids.
Myofascial therapy releases tension and restores imbalances that kids encounter as their muscles, tendons and fascia become restricted during growth spurts or athletic activity.
Myofascial Therapy is beneficial for treating and preventing injuries for young athletes. Early intervention promotes flexibility and enhances movement patterns, while treatment of sprains and muscle tears can see improved and faster healing, allowing kids to return to their activities quicker.
Growing pains are extremely common, mild and recurring pains in children. They most often appear in the leg muscles. Myofascial therapy releases tension through the leg muscles to aid in the lessening of regular growing pains.
Children who experience headaches or migraines may have tension in the muscles and fascia of the neck, head, and face. Releasing this tension will reduce the frequency and severity of headaches.
Ear pain is one of the most common discomforts for young children. Through non-invasive myofascial therapy, we can release restricted connective tissue in the ear area. This to alleviates pain and improves blood flow and circulation to avoid the build-up of an infection and quicken healing.
Children with conditions such as cerebral palsy or muscular dystrophy may experience muscle tightness or weakness that can interfere with their mobility and function. Myofascial therapy can help increase the range of motion and alleviate discomfort to improve the overall quality of life.
Myofascial therapy aids in concussion recovery by releasing muscle tightness and tension in the neck, shoulders, and upper back, and improving blood flow to the affected area which helps to minimize headaches and neck discomfort.
