The difference between massage and myofascial release?

I need an explanation on what the difference is between these two and techniques. My job is doing myofascial release on patients but it seems like every patient just wants us to do deep tissue massage with isn’t something we’re qualified to do. However since we are a new clinic, there’s a lot of misinformation and uncertainty on how we’re supposed to perform these. And I’m at the point where I don’t understand how we’re different from LMT’s at this point just without the training.

Edit: I am a chiropractic assistant, and in my state we are licensed to perform myofascial release. Just trying to figure out the difference between the two.
