In this comprehensive service page, we will explain the science and philosophy behind Passive Positional Release, explore its numerous benefits, and outline how our expert therapists at Denver Sports Massage can help you unlock its full potential. We invite you to discover the transformative power of PPR and learn how our services can help you achieve your health and wellness goals.

Passive Positional Release is a gentle, hands-on therapeutic technique that focuses on the identification and treatment of muscle tension and dysfunction. This approach is based on the principles of osteopathy, a holistic medical practice that emphasizes the interrelationship between the body’s structure and function. PPR targets tight, tender areas within the muscles, known as trigger points, to release tension and promote healing.

During a PPR session, the therapist locates the trigger points and gently positions the affected muscle in a shortened, relaxed state. This position is then maintained for a brief period, typically around 90 seconds, allowing the muscle to release tension and return to its normal resting length. This process is repeated for each identified trigger point, helping to alleviate pain, improve flexibility, and restore optimal function.

Passive Positional Release is a versatile therapy with a wide array of benefits for individuals of all ages and activity levels. From athletes looking to optimize their performance to those dealing with chronic pain, PPR can provide significant improvements in overall health and well-being. Some of the many benefits of PPR include:

• Pain Relief: PPR’s targeted approach to trigger points helps to alleviate pain caused by muscle tension and dysfunction. By gently positioning the muscle in a shortened, relaxed state, PPR enables the muscle to release tension and promotes healing of the affected tissue.
• Increased Flexibility and Range of Motion: By addressing muscle tension and imbalances, PPR can help to improve flexibility and range of motion. This increased mobility is especially beneficial for athletes looking to enhance their performance and reduce the risk of injury.
• Reduced Recovery Time: The gentle nature of PPR makes it an ideal therapy for individuals recovering from injury or surgery. By promoting muscle relaxation and decreasing pain, PPR can help to accelerate the healing process and get you back to your favorite activities sooner.
• Improved Posture and Alignment: Muscle imbalances and tension can lead to poor posture and misalignment of the body’s musculoskeletal system. PPR helps to address these imbalances and restore proper alignment, resulting in improved posture and reduced strain on the body.
• Enhanced Relaxation and Stress Relief: The gentle, hands-on nature of PPR makes it a deeply relaxing experience. By addressing muscle tension and promoting relaxation, PPR can help to alleviate stress and leave you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

When you arrive for your PPR session at Denver Sports Massage, our therapists will begin by conducting a thorough assessment of your specific needs and concerns. This may include discussing your medical history, current pain or mobility issues, and your goals for treatment. They will then use this information to develop a customized PPR treatment plan designed to address your unique needs.

During your PPR treatment, you will lie comfortably on a massage table, typically in a relaxed, passive position. Your therapist will gently palpate your muscles to identify any trigger points or areas of tension. Once these points are located, the therapist will carefully position your body to shorten and relax the affected muscle. This position will be held for approximately 90 seconds, allowing the muscle to release tension and return to its normal resting length.

Throughout your session, your therapist will communicate with you to ensure your comfort and to monitor your response to the treatment. They may also provide guidance on stretches or exercises you can perform at home to help maintain your results.

After your PPR session, you may experience an immediate improvement in pain, flexibility, and range of motion. However, it’s important to remember that lasting results often require multiple sessions and a commitment to ongoing self-care, including regular stretching and exercise.
