What is Soft Tissue
Mobilization?

Soft tissue mobilization is a hands-on therapy technique designed to improve mobility, reduce pain, and enhance the function of muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia. Using specialized manual techniques, therapists target tight or restricted areas to break down scar tissue, release adhesions, and increase blood flow to promote healing. This approach restores natural movement and relieves chronic or acute pain caused by injury, overuse, or post-surgical recovery.
