Positional release therapy is technique in which the massage therapist skillfully moves the muscle and joint into a position of greater comfort that eases the client’s pain and holds it until a full release of pain and tension occur in the body and proper pain-free movement has been restored. The position of release which allows the muscle to “reset” itself may be held for up to a couple of minutes or more but the release most often occurs within 10-20 seconds. Since there is no force required whatsoever, to the client, Positional Release works as if by magic to relieve pain, joint hypo-mobility, tension and protective muscle spasms where other more forceful techniques have failed.
