Myofascial Release (MFR)

The main modality used here is Myofascial Release as developed and taught by John F. Barnes PT.

Myofascial Release is sustained pressure applied to restricted areas of the body. It is a manual therapy technique applied with hands on skin, no lotion. At times it is stretches, again held a long time.  It is the long holds and gentle pressure that give the profound results this therapy provides.

Pressures are usually light and gentle, with deeper pressures as the body calls for it.

Because this will be intuitive treatment for you, there may be other techniques or modalities like Therapeutic Touch or Visceral Manipulation, applied using the Myofascial principles of never forcing and following the body's messages.   We both follow your body and let your needs guide our choice of technique.
