Fascial hydrodissection is a medical procedure that involves the injection of a fluid, typically saline or a combination of saline and a local anesthetic such as lidocaine or bupivacaine, into the fascial plane (the connective tissue that surrounds muscles, organs, and other structures) to help separate and release tight or stuck layers of fascia. The goal is to alleviate pain, reduce tension, and improve mobility in areas where the fascia has become restricted or adhered.
1.Injection of Fluid: An ultrasound is utilized to to guide a needle towards restricted or adhesed fascial tissues and an injection of saline or medication is delivered to “dissect” or separate these layers, allowing them to glide more freely.
2.Tissue Release: The fluid works by creating space between the fascia layers and breaking up adhesions or scar tissue that may have formed due to injury, inflammation, or chronic tension.
3.Reduction of Pain and Tightness: By separating the layers of fascia, hydrodissection helps relieve pressure, reduce inflammation, and improve blood flow to the area. This can reduce pain, enhance range of motion, and promote better overall tissue function.

The goal is to alleviate pain, reduce tension, and improve mobility in areas where the fascia has become restricted or adhered.
This technique is primarily used to treat conditions where fascia is believed to be a major contributing factor to pain or dysfunction. Some common conditions where fascial hydrodissection may be beneficial include:
• Myofascial pain syndrome (muscle pain and tenderness due to fascial tightness)
• Chronic muscle tension or stiffness
• Scar tissue or adhesions (often after surgery or injury)
• Trigger points (painful knots within the muscles)
• Soft tissue injuries (sprains or strains that involve the fascia)
1.Improved Mobility: By separating the fascial layers, the technique helps restore normal movement and function to the affected area.
2.Pain Relief: The reduction of fascial restrictions can lead to a decrease in chronic pain or discomfort.
3.Non-Surgical Approach: Fascial hydrodissection offers a minimally invasive treatment option compared to more invasive procedures or surgery.
4.Reduced Inflammation: The fluid injected during the procedure can help reduce inflammation and promote healing in the tissue.

1. Preparation: The area to be treated is typically cleaned and sterilized.
2. Injection: A needle is inserted into the fascial plane, and the solution is slowly injected to separate the fascial layers.
3. Post-Treatment Care: After the procedure, the patient may be advised to rest and follow up with physical therapy or exercises to maintain the benefits of the treatment.
Like any medical procedure, fascial hydrodissection carries some risks. These may include:
• Infection (due to the needle insertion)
• Bruising or swelling at the injection site
• Pain during or after the procedure
• Nerve or tissue injury, although this is rare
It is essential to have the procedure performed by a trained healthcare professional to minimize these risks.
Fascial hydrodissection can be an effective treatment for various musculoskeletal issues where fascia is a contributing factor. It provides a non-surgical option to release fascial restrictions, improve tissue mobility, and reduce pain, potentially helping patients with chronic pain, muscle stiffness, and other fascial-related conditions.
