Discovered by an Osteopathic Physician, refined by Physical Therapists.

• Passive positioning
• Spontaneous release
• Incredible therapy

Positional Release Therapy treats musculoskeletal dysfunction in a very unique way. The area of dysfunction as defined by a tender point/trigger point, is shortened and taken into a position of ease. Also referred to as “Dynamic Neutral” the position of ease allows the body’s nervous system and fascial network to naturally come back into balance. After a short amount of rest in that position, your clients will be amazed to discover that their pain and tension has been resolved.

Why Positional Release Therapy?
