What is Functional Range Release?

Functional Range Release, or FR is a systematic soft tissue evaluation and treatment system. It is considered to be one of the most effective techniques for treating pain and injuries originating from soft tissue dysfunction.

Why is Functional Range Release so different?

Functional Range Release utilities the latest scientific understanding of how soft tissues can be influenced via manual therapy and combines it with extremely detailed soft tissue palpation and assessment. All treatments are immediately backed up with isometric contractions (PAILs) to further reinforce the signal to the targeted area.

Why movement is key

The goal of FR is to improve tissue quality to ultimately help improve movement. When combined with Functional Range Conditioning, it really is a complete system, not only addressing dysfunctional tissue but helping you improve strength and mobility for lasting results!

Not just for treating pain

Functional Range Release® is one of the leading soft tissue approaches for treating soft tissue pain and injuries. However, not all soft tissue dysfunction causes pain. In fact, most people will have all kinds of low level problems they are completely unaware of. These problems are easily highlighted when you look at how someone moves. In FR®, we’er taught not to use pain as a reliable outcome measure.

The reality is we actually know very little about pain, despite what people may claim. In FR®, we use movement capacity and quality of movement to grade function. Why? it’s easy to find problems with this methodology, even if the person is asymptomatic. The goal is to help our clients develop the prerequisite mobility and motor control to perform the tasks they require. The entire FR® and FRC® philosophy is based on this concept. that of getting people back to how humans are designed to function. When you do this, in most cases any pain also disappears.
