Soft Tissue Therapy in Burbank

Are you experiencing persistent muscle tightness, nagging aches, and a limited range of motion? These symptoms may point toward soft tissue dysfunction, which often causes pain and restricted mobility. 

Fortunately, More Life Chiropractic can provide significant support in this area. We offer soft tissue therapy in Burbank, CA, to help release muscle tension, restore movement, and naturally accelerate healing so that you can return to comfortable living.

What Is Soft Tissue Therapy?

Soft tissue therapy uses manual techniques, such as massages and mobilization exercises, to treat impairments in your soft tissues, which include:

• Muscles
• Tendons
• Ligaments
• Fascia

Problems in these areas occur due to countless factors, from injuries to chronic strain, many of which are unavoidable in modern lifestyles.

Medication helps—at least in the short term. If you want lasting results, we recommend soft tissue therapy. It addresses imbalances through specialized, highly targeted treatments, relieving pain and restoring function indefinitely.

Common Causes of Soft Tissue Pain

Let’s explore some triggers for soft tissue pain to understand how they affect your body and how soft tissue therapy provides much-needed muscle pain relief.

• Repetitive Movements: Non-stop lifting, running, and even something as simple as typing overwork specific muscles to the point of pain.
• Poor Posture: Postural issues cause imbalances that usually result in long-term strain and tension throughout your body.
• Injuries or Trauma: Sprains, falls, and whiplash severely damage soft tissues, especially muscles.
• Surgical Recovery: Scar tissue might build up in the surgical site and surrounding areas, limiting mobility.
• Stress and Muscle Guarding: Chronic stress causes muscles to be in a constant state of tension, triggering responses like tension headaches.

If you persistently experience pain and discomfort from these sources, More Life Chiropractic could help restore your quality of life by providing deep tissue treatment and other soft tissue therapies in Burbank.

Benefits of Soft Tissue Therapy

Soft tissue therapy leverages your body’s natural ability to heal itself to recover in a more holistic and lasting way.

Pain Relief Without Medication

This approach addresses the underlying causes of pain while reducing or eliminating the need for medication. That means no more worrying about side effects, just real relief you can feel.

Increased Flexibility and Range of Motion

Soft tissue therapy focuses on reducing muscle tension, improving tissue elasticity, and using other strategies that make movement easier and more comfortable. 

Faster Recovery From Injury

Reducing inflammation and tightness with soft tissue therapy allows blood to reach injured areas and deliver essential nutrients more efficiently, speeding up your healing.

Better Spinal and Postural Alignment

Through targeted massages, exercises, and adjustments, soft tissue therapy realigns your body to correct your posture and, in effect, reduce pain.

Soft Tissue Therapy Services at More Life Chiropractic

Our recovery programs go beyond temporary relief. We provide personalized, well-rounded treatments that heal your body for the long term.

Myofascial Release

Our myofascial release in Burbank involves slow, gentle strokes in the fascia—the connective tissue supporting muscles and other structures throughout your body—to ease movement restrictions, tightness, and pain.

Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM)

We use beveled tools to massage your skin, muscles, tendons, and fascia for soft tissue relief. It’s also helpful in reducing scar tissue, as it breaks down collagen fibers and improves blood flow in the affected area to promote healing.

Trigger Point Therapy

Here, we apply focused massage pressure on trigger points or “knots”—small, painful, lump-like areas within muscle tissue. By doing so, the affected area becomes less tense and tight and easier to move.

Neuromuscular Reeducation

We offer manual therapies and exercises to improve your muscular and nervous system coordination. As a result, movement rebalances your soft tissues and helps restore your mobility.
