MYOFASCIAL RELEASE
The fitness industry is constantly evolving with new forms of physical activity. One of them is MFR-training, which today is also presented in the schedule of group programs of the 5th element fitness center. MPF stands for myofascial release, and it is a self-massage aimed at relaxing and releasing the muscle fascia. Fascia is a sheath of connective tissue that covers blood vessels, nerves and internal organs. In our case, we are talking about the fascia covering the muscles (mio). When the fascia sticks together (loss of elasticity), the muscles cannot slide freely relative to each other, which leads to pain and other problems. Massage helps to sever the fascia and increase elasticity, relieve spasms and clamps, and relax deep muscles.
