Support your healing between sessions with mindful Myofascial self-treatment.

At Key City Myofascial Release, healing doesn’t stop at the treatment table. Self-care is a powerful extension of your professional sessions, giving you tools to stay connected to your body and continue your progress at home.

Why Self-Care Matters

Myofascial restrictions develop from physical trauma, emotional stress, repetitive movements, or poor posture. Through gentle, sustained pressure, self-treatment helps release these restrictions—reducing pain, restoring mobility, and calming the nervous system.

Self-care empowers you to:

Relieve tension as it arises
Stay aligned between treatments
Deepen awareness of your body’s messages
Reclaim a sense of control over your healing

PURCHASE

Sacro Wedgy

The Sacro Wedgy® is an innovative tool designed to elevate and isolate the sacrum (commonly known as the tailbone) while leveraging gravity to promote relaxation, alignment, and balance from the hips outward. Our understanding reveals that humans are fundamentally beings of balance—whether it be chemical, emotional, or physical. What we offer is a mechanism and methodology to foster improved muscle equilibrium, which is why numerous therapists incorporate this tool into their practices. It's remarkable how much discomfort dissipates when we achieve a state of "balance" and "relaxation." (Be sure to choose male or female version when purchasing.)
