Women’s Health and Announcing New Classes and Seminars

Saturday, February 14th, 2009

Hello!  Welcome to the Jersey Shore Myofascial Release Center Newsletter

It is our intent with each newsletter to keep you updated on the world of Myofascial Release and let you know a little bit more about how Myofascial Release can benefit a variety of different disorders and diagnoses. In our February newsletter, we will focus on Women’s health issues.

Women’s Health
Women tend to have a higher degree of problems in their pelvis, compared with men, due to the unique form of their anatomy and its function. The female pelvis is broader, which can make it become torqued or twisted more easily and the joint surfaces are flatter and can become sheared during a micro or major trauma.
Myofascial release is used for the treatment of menstrual pain or dysfunction, back and pelvic pain, endometriosis and other inflammatory disorders. It has been used successfully to alleviate pain during pregnancy and childbirth, recurrent bladder pain and dysfunction, painful intercourse, infertility, sexual dysfunction, elimination problems, and painful episiotomy and c-section scars. It has also been used for problematic breast implant/reduction scars and mastectomy pain.

During each menstrual cycle as inflammation occurs, combined with fascial restrictions and increasing internal pressure, cramping and muscles tightening; we can see how a woman would become more prone to trauma. If you were to envision the fascia like a powerful three dimensional net around the pelvis, tightening down and exerting 2000 pounds of pressure per square inch on the nerves, blood vessels, organs and internal structures, the potential for pain and/or malfunction is high.
This powerful three dimensional fascial web encases the entire body. During a trauma , and a thwarted inflammatory response, the fluidity of the fascial system becomes dehydrated and alters the shape, size and mobility of all of our cells.
Myofascial release can gently free the structures that are producing pain and also address the emotional pain associated with past unpleasant events or trauma that have been stored on the subconscious level. As Myofascial release opens the adhered tissue, the trapped emotions fade away and the person is returned to a sense of peace and a pain free active lifestyle.

Please let us know if either yourself or a woman in your life is suffering with any of the above conditions and the unnecessary pain associated with it.
