It may require downward pressure and spinning at the same time. I just did my rear brakes on an escort with rear disc brakes and this was the case.

The front brake caliper should retract with minimal effort with the aid of a c-clamp and an old brake pad. If it takes alot of pressure to make it retract I would replace the caliper. The rear brake caliper is a different story because it houses the e-brake also. The brake caliper piston must be rotated clockwise as you apply pressure to retract it. This requires a special tool that you can purchase from your local auto parts store. This tool is not expensive, it should be less than $20.
