Question 1

Is it just a massage?

Accepted Answer

Massage may be part of it, but myofascial techniques rely on an assessment and target specific structures (muscles, fascia) to restore mobility within a rehabilitation programme.

Question 2

How long does the effect last?

Accepted Answer

Release is often immediate but temporary: associated active work (mobility, strengthening) is what anchors lasting progress.

Question 3

Can they be combined with other techniques?

Accepted Answer

Yes. They are frequently paired with joint mobilisation, manual therapy or an exercise programme, according to your assessment.
