What types of Sports Injury Massage are offered at Mile High Spine?

• Myofascial Release: This type of manual therapy targets specific muscles, tendons, or ligaments. For this approach, the doctor manually applies direct pressure to the soft-tissue using their thumb, while the patient actively moves the affected area. This treatment specifically treats the underlying soft-tissue problem. Unlike traditional massage therapy, the patient actively moves to isolate the specific area of complaint.
• Instrument Assisted Soft-Tissue Mobilization: This type of manual therapy focuses on the outer layer of the soft-tissue. For this approach, the doctor applies direct pressure to the soft-tissue using a specialized, stainless-steel tool. This breaks up scar-tissue and adhesions on the superficial myofascial layer of the soft-tissue.
• Percussion Massage: This type of manual therapy uses a motorized massage gun that vibrates at a rapid and repetitive rate. The massage head is applied to a specific muscle or muscle group to increase blood flow, reduce muscle soreness, release muscle tension, and recover from intense exercise.
