3. Flexibility
When it comes to the myofascial trigger points, knots can lead to the muscles becoming inflexible. When this occurs it can be quite difficult to move the way that we want to. When we cannot move the muscles the way that we want, it can be quite annoying and also may cause pain as you are not strengthening your muscles through movement.
Allowing your muscles to become weak because of pain can cause many different issues. This is where myofascial release can help. Using the trigger points to help alleviate the knots that have developed in the muscles can help alleviate pain and other symptoms that a person is experiencing.
Releasing the knots allows the muscles to fully relax. When the muscles are fully relaxed they can then be used for a full range of motion. Stretching the muscles and alleviating any knots can help to reduce the pain that you may be experiencing.
