Myofascial release techniques are used to reduce tension or pain in muscles and the thin fibrous covering that surrounds them (known as fascia). Tightness on the chest, trunk, arm and in the armpit are commonly reported by people who have surgery or radiation as part of their breast cancer treatment. This webinar provides an overview of myofascial release techniques and the latest research in people living with, through or beyond breast cancer. Learn practical myofascial stretches to self-manage persistent tissue tightness you may be experiencing.
