Contraction Release Therapy™ (CRT)

 

 

 

Contraction Release Therapy™ is trademarked and exclusive to Myomassology practitioners.  This deep-tissue therapy is effective in resolving muscular aches and chronic pain.  Individual muscles are assessed first then isolated, placed into false contraction then ‘released’ using a variety of techniques to relieve tension and pain.

 

CRT is a systematic approach using therapeutic techniques to release hypertonic muscles, especially conditions of chronic pain.  An assessment occurs initially with the practitioner palpating areas of soreness and pain to decide which muscles require treatment.

 

Active and passive techniques are used and muscles isolated, placing them into false contraction.  Friction techniques are then used to release the tired, aching muscles infusing them with fresh oxygenated blood and lymph deep inside the muscle core bathes and lubricates the fibres to assist with the healing process and remove toxins and lactic acid build-up.  This systematic approach is continued throughout the body, assessing and releasing muscles as required to return the musculo-skeletal system to homeostasis and true symmetrical alignment from head to toe in true ‘holistic’ fashion.  CRT is unique to Canadian Myomassologists.
