Position Release Technique

This technique is ideal for individuals with fibromyalgia or those that have tissues which are too hypersensitive to be treated with ischemic compression or even variable compression.

  1. First follow steps 1-5 as outlined in "Steps in Basic FENIX Therapeutic Pressure Application" in the Basic FENIX Treatment.

    • With a FENIX therapeutic digit, gently apply very mild pressure against the tender point of the involved tissue, causing only minor discomfort.

    • With mild pressure on the tender point to monitor the tissue, slowly bring the origin and insertion (or ends) of the muscle closer together, shortening the involved tissue, until a position of ease is found that lessens the discomfort by about 75 percent.

    • With very mild pressure on the tender point you hold this position of ease for 1-1 1/2 minutes, and then slowly return the tissue to normal length.

    • Then apply greater pressure to the tender point to test it with the FENIX therapeutic digit. There should be a subsequent reduction in pain and a release of hypertonicity of the tissue.
