FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: the present innovation deals with removing wrinkles on a patient's body and/or face. It is necessary to stretch wrinkles due to osteopathic technique of myofascial relaxation, palpate the area of stretching and detect the region of the highest tissue tension and sites of its mobility restriction. One should stretch tissue along the line of muscular fibers till the feeling of resistance to further stretching. It is important to fulfill slight twisting tissue movements, firstly, clockwise and then - counterclockwise till the feeling of inhibiting the active tissue movement under fingers. One should fulfill twisting movements slowly 3-4 times alternately into one side and another one by not weakening the power of tissue stretching along the line of muscular fibers. It is necessary to keep stretched position of muscles till the onset of the feeling of tissue relaxation and pliability. Tissues should be stretched again. The procedure should be repeated stage by stage to achieve the threshold of stretching. Strain power should be weakened slowly. The innovation enables to shorten the period for performing myofascial relaxation by several times, improve tissue elasticity and smooth deep wrinkles.
EFFECT: higher efficiency.
