Gentle, Targeted Therapy for Lasting Relief

At Ducker Physio, we offer professional myofascial release therapy in Adelaide to help reduce pain, improve mobility, and restore balance to the body. This hands-on technique targets the fascia—your body’s connective tissue—to relieve tension and improve movement.

Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain, muscle tightness, postural issues or restricted range of motion, our experienced physiotherapists are here to help with tailored fascia myofascial release treatment plans.

This form of massage involves applying very slow and sustained pressure to the connective tissue and fascia, eventually allowing it to relax or release. Injury, overuse, inactivity, tension and reduced blood flow can all lead to soft tissues becoming restricted in the body. Common body parts that require this treatment include:

Upper back
Lower back
Buttock
Thigh

Our physiotherapists will devise a tailored treatment plan that will work to improve your range of movement, and overall quality of life!

Myofascial release is a manual therapy that gently stretches and manipulates the fascia—thin layers of connective tissue that wrap around your muscles and organs. When fascia becomes tight or restricted due to injury, overuse, or stress, it can lead to pain, stiffness, and decreased function.

Through sustained, gentle pressure applied to problem areas, myofascial release can:

Reduce tension and muscle knots
Improve blood flow and lymphatic circulation
Relieve chronic pain and discomfort
Enhance flexibility and posture
Support injury recovery and rehabilitation
