This photograph demonstrated a Doctor of Chiropractic performing a myofascial release technique. Myofascial release is a manual therapy that may be included in chiropractic treatment to relieve pain and restore function. Myo refers to muscle, while the fascia is "fibrous tissue that envelops the body beneath the skin; also encloses muscles and muscle groups" (Webster's New World/Stedman's Concise Medical Dictionary. Prentice Hall: New York, 1987). For more information on this or any other chiropractic technique, please ask your Doctor of Chiropractic.
