Soft Tissue Release (STR) â The Basics Soft tissue release is an effective way to improve mobility. It stretches and unglues soft tissues, improving the sliding surfaces between them. Muscles should be warmed up with some general massage or passive soft tissue release first. Passive soft tissue release is a great starting point. It’s effect is amplified with active or weight-bearing STR.

- 1 Cardiac muscle fibers contract via excitation-contraction coupling, using a mechanism unique to cardiac muscle called calcium-induced calcium release.  Excitation-contraction coupling describes the process of converting an electrical stimulus (action potential) into a mechanical response (muscle contraction).

Soft tissue injuries Causes of a soft tissue injury. Sprains and strains are caused by severe or sudden twisting, stretching or (for muscles) contraction. These forces stretch or even tear the fibres of the muscle, tendon or ligament. They may even cause the muscle, tendon or ligament to detach from its anchor point (for example, a bone).

What is the science behind Trigger Point deep muscle massage? Does it work? How many sessions does it take before you feel relief? Release of a trigger point my ischemic compression and/or friction massage releases a trigger point (and the pain and tension) within a minute or two. If trigger points are extremely active, it may take several passes over an area to treat it completely.

Introduction to Active Release Technique Introduction. Active Release Technique® (ART®) is a patented soft tissue technique that treats problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia (connective tissue), and nerves. A multitude of musculoskeletal conditions can benefit from ART®.hat makes Active Release Technique® (ART®) different from other techniques. The difference between ART® and other techniques is that during an ART® treatment, the patient actively moves the affected structure (muscle or ligament) while the practitioner presses or maintains contact on the injured area.

Healing Soft Tissue Injuries: Muscles, Tendons, Fascia and More Soft Tissue Injuries What exactly are soft tissue injuries? “Soft tissue” is an expression commonly used to refer to the “softer” aspects of the outer body, not including bones and joints. Muscles, tendons, and fascia are examples. Soft tissue injuries are commonplace and range from minor to very serious, depending on the nature of the injury. Muscles are the tissues that enable us to move and stay warm. Muscles are arranged in pairs to enable pulling and pushing types of movement.

What is Cranial Release Technique? Cranial Release Technique (CRT) is a natural, hands-on approach to releasing the body’s inborn capacity to heal and regenerate itself.CRT can be applied in only minutes, yet it has profound effects on overall health and well-being. The “Global Release” provided by the Cranial Release Technique has very far reaching positive effects on overall body function. 2  This is due to the extent of tissues and structures involved. 3  This overall “Release” of cranial and body structure can be accomplished in just minutes using the targeted CRT approach.

Soft Tissue Injury? What are the Healing Phases? Sub-Acute - Repair Phase A soft tissue injury is termed as sub-acute when the initial acute phase makes a transition to repairing the injured tissues. This phase commonly lasts up to six weeks post-injury when your body is bust laying down new soft tissue and reducing the need to protect your injury as the new scar tissue etc begins to mature and strengthen.
