Myofascial energetics is a form of bodywork that manipulates soft tissue (fascia/connective tissue), balancing the body’s energy system while releasing pain and tension. This technique involves deep, slow movements that “melt” the fascia in a “sinking” type motion. Connective tissue is interconnected throughout the body and envelops muscle, ligaments, tendons, bones and organs. ME is performed in a series of six sessions over a six-week period, allowing the body time to integrate the work. Each session addresses specific regions of the body.
Myofascial energetics is effective for, but not limited to: migraines, fibromyalgia, back pain, whiplash, neck pain, scar tissue, disk problems, jaw pain (TMJ), chronic fatigue syndrome, carpal tunnel, sciatica, women’s health issues. ME is a natural form of the facelift, bringing tone and elasticity to muscle.
ME is extremely helpful in the aging process as connective tissue tends to become, constricted and fibrous, affecting flexibility as well as many other conditions. Connective tissue is thought to be the conduit for the flow of energy within the meridians (energy pathways) according to Chinese Medicine. Sessions are infused with energy balancing, promoting stress release and calmness. ME activates cellular memory that aids in the healing process. Many Roads specializes in working with mid-life women, focusing on particular challenges women often face at this time.
