Myofascial Release Massage Therapy You Don’t Have To Live With Pain
“I give Lydia huge credit for getting my mobility back after major shoulder surgery and 3 months of healing. Massages with Lydia keep me riding.”
Myra and Mama B Lydia experienced the power of myofascial release therapy firsthand after a fall down a flight of concrete steps. She did myofascial releases on herself, starting with the topmost muscle layer and working deeper as the tissues released.
The body has 6 to 10 times more fascia than muscle fibers. Fascia coats all fibers, including nerves. Changing muscle memory by releasing the fascia releases the toxins, which contribute to making you sore.
“After myofascial release sessions with Lydia, I’m straight in the saddle and the pain is gone. It’s made a big difference in my life.”
Kerryann and Lady Zonik
“I learned firsthand that you don’t have to live with pain.”
