[QUOTE="Matthead012, post: 326886, member: 101123"] Self-myofascial release involves applying pressure to soft tissue structures (such as muscles) in an attempt to relieve discomfort, enhance blood flow, and restore mobility. This is often uncomfortable, but it should not be painful, as this may indicate that you are doing more harm than good. If you suffer substantial pain or discomfort while conducting SMR, you should stop immediately to avoid worsening the condition. While the science around the mechanisms involved in SMR is still unclear, we do know that it helps to enhance blood flow to the damaged area, which is related with faster healing. SMR is also thought to assist mechanically break down adhesions inside the muscle, so alleviating discomfort and restoring mobility to an otherwise restricted muscle. What are the advantages of SMR? Although the science underpinning SMR does not provide a conclusive answer as to its efficacy, we do know that it can feel pleasant. That's definitely a plus when it comes to recuperation and enjoying your sessions. In this section, we'll go over some of the other major advantages of using SMR techniques in your rehabilitation. SMR helps to relax your muscles. Massage relaxes muscles by separating and loosening them. Muscles are extended and stretched out, similar to other stretching procedures, which releases tension and allows for a broader range of motion at a joint. This can not only minimize the impression of tightness, but also help to relax the muscles sufficiently to release actual muscle tension. It improves blood flow. Manually stroking the muscle increases blood flow to the area, raising the muscle's warmth. When done after exercise, this can assist to speed up recovery by removing cellular waste from muscles and delivering nutrients more efficiently. SMR has the ability to release trigger points. As previously stated, self-myofascial release can aid to break down adhesions inside the muscle, reducing discomfort and tightness sensations. A technique known as 'trigger pointing' or 'ischaemic compression' works by cutting off the blood supply to a specific muscle, forcing it to relax and thereby temporarily relieving symptoms. It can help with movement. Adhesions within the muscle inhibit movement by restricting how far a muscle can stretch by keeping it chronically shortened (contracted). Removing these adhesions can assist in restoring mobility by allowing the muscle to reach its maximum length without restriction? [/QUOTE]
