Which length should I book?
Pick by how many areas you want worked on. Not sure? 60 minutes is what most guests book, and your practitioner will focus where you need it most.
What is Myofascial Release?
Myofascial release is hands-on bodywork that works on the fascia around your muscles, not just the muscles themselves. Your practitioner uses slow, sustained pressure and stretching, and can add cupping or scraping. It is not a relaxation massage: it's focused work on the spots that feel tight.
The science
Fascia is the thin connective tissue that wraps every muscle. When you sit a lot, train hard or hold stress, it can feel stiff and stuck. Slow, steady pressure helps it soften and glide, which is why tight spots often feel looser and you move more freely afterward.
Cupping uses gentle suction to lift skin and tissue instead of pressing down. Scraping uses a smooth, flat tool glided along the muscle. Both are old techniques that many athletes use today.
Does it hurt?
It can feel intense on a tight spot, then that spot lets go. You choose the pressure and can change it any time. Many guests feel looser right away; some feel a little tender the next day, like after a workout. Cupping can leave round marks that fade in a few days.

Questions about Myofascial Release
Is Myofascial Release the same as a massage?
No. A relaxation massage works over the whole body to help you unwind. Myofascial release is slower, focused work on the fascia in the areas that feel tight, and can include cupping and scraping.
Who is Myofascial Release good for?
People with tight or sore spots: desk workers with stiff necks and shoulders, runners and lifters with tight hips or legs, people who are on their feet all day, and anyone who wants hands-on work at the pressure they choose.
What's the difference between cupping and scraping?
Cupping uses gentle suction cups that lift the skin and tissue. Scraping uses a smooth, flat tool glided along the muscle. Both are included in 60 and 90 minute sessions, or you can book cupping and scraping on its own for 30 minutes.
How much is Myofascial Release in Woodland Hills?
At Biohack Cryo + Wellness, 30 minutes is $70, 60 minutes is $130 and 90 minutes is $185. Cupping and scraping on its own is $70 for 30 minutes, or $170 with Radial Shockwave added.
Can I book it with the infrared sauna or cold plunge?
Yes. Add them to the same booking and we'll plan the order for you.
Do I need to fill out a form?
Yes, before your first bodywork session. After you book, check your email for your form. Booking for someone under 18? Tick the box when you book and we'll send a consent form.
