During soft tissue mobilization, a certified physical therapist applies manual and mechanical treatment techniques to your muscles, ligaments, and fascia with the goal of releasing adhesions and enhancing your muscular function.
Your body uses adhesions, which are long strands of collagenous scar tissue, as a long-term inflammatory process to try and heal a soft tissue damage. Pain trigger points are formed when these newly formed tissues tug against one another.
The aim of soft tissue mobilization is to lessen adhesions and muscle tension.
Depending on the kind of mobilization being done, these strokes might have different pressures, lengths of time, and patterns.
Amongst the particular methods for mobilizing soft tissues are:
The mobilization of soft tissues treats the following conditions:
A type of physical therapy called myofascial release is a sub type of soft tissue mobilization in which we apply longitudinal pressure over the muscle to lessen the tension. it is frequently used to treat myofascial pain syndrome, which is a persistent pain condition brought on by sensitivity and tightness in your myofascial tissues.
Myofascial release focuses on reducing pain by easing the tension and tightness in the trigger points and spasm.
It is used to reduce severe stiffness of muscles specially para spinal muscles causing low back pain, upper back stiffness and calf pain after long standing or walking. can be great for pre-workouts to increase range of motion and potentially prevent injury but can also be great for post-workout recovery.
When using a foam roller, your body releases tension and relaxes, which helps stimulate blood flow and speed up recovery.
Massage guns are best used over larger muscle groups such as paraspinal muscles, hip muscles, hamstrings, and the lower back area. It is specialized to target the specific pain point of that particular muscle.
