Soft tissue injuries don’t just hurt — they slow you down. Whether it’s a strained muscle, a pulled ligament, or overworked connective tissue, pain can make even simple movements feel impossible. The frustration grows when rest or medication only offers temporary relief.
At Myopress, we understand that soft tissue injuries are more than surface-level pain. They’re signs of deeper dysfunction — imbalances in your muscles, fascia, and movement patterns that, if left untreatd, can lead to chronic pain or recurring injury.
That’s why we developed the Myopress® Method, a five-phase system that helps the body repair damage, restore balance, and prevent future strain. For over 20 years, Ephraim Colwell, LMT, NMT, CES, has helped patients across Houston, Cypress, and Bellaire recover from soft tissue injuries and return to the activities they love — stronger, more stable, and pain-free.
Soft tissue injuries affect the muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia — the network of connective tissue that supports every movement. These injuries often happen from overuse, trauma, or repetitive strain, but the pain you feel is usually just the symptom.
When muscles or fascia tighten to protect injured areas, they can restrict blood flow and movement. Over time, that tension creates a cycle: reduced circulation, slower healing, and recurring pain.
Common soft tissue injuries include:
At Myopress, we don’t just treat the pain — we retrain your body to move efficiently again.
The Myopress® Method works by targeting the root cause of pain — restoring function and balance through five progressive phases.
Phase 01: Reset
We begin by reducing pain and inflammation through Neuromuscular Therapy, which relaxes overactive muscles and improves blood flow to injured tissue.
Phase 02: Lengthen
We use Active Release Techniques (A.R.T.) and Assisted Stretching to break down adhesions and restore mobility in restricted muscles and fascia.
Phase 03: Stabilize
Once flexibility returns, we rebuild stability around vulnerable joints to ensure that the injury doesn’t reoccur. This phase reinforces balance and control.
Phase 04: Strengthen
We introduce Corrective Exercises to rebuild strength in underused or weakened muscle groups, promoting full, functional recovery.
Phase 05: Move
Finally, we retrain natural movement patterns, ensuring your body works as a coordinated system — pain-free, balanced, and resilient.
This full-body approach bridges the gap between recovery and performance.
You may benefit from Myopress therapy if you:
Many clients come to Myopress after other treatments — like massage, stretching, or medication — failed to deliver lasting relief. Our method goes deeper, correcting the dysfunctions that keep pain coming back.
The body is incredibly adaptive. When one area is injured, other muscles step in to compensate. Over time, this creates imbalances that pull your body out of alignment.
For example, an old ankle sprain might change how you walk, which then causes hip or back pain. A shoulder strain can alter posture, leading to neck tension or nerve irritation.
By identifying and correcting these compensations, the Myopress® Method restores harmony throughout the muscular system — allowing you to heal completely, not temporarily.
At Myopress, we don’t rush the healing process — we guide it. We listen, evaluate, and tailor every treatment to your unique injury and movement history.
Ephraim Colwell combines decades of experience with a deep understanding of neuromuscular function. He’s helped clients ranging from athletes and medical professionals to teachers and office workers rebuild strength and confidence in their bodies.
Our goal isn’t just to get you back to where you were — it’s to make you stronger than before.
