What Makes MFR Different?
John Barnes Myofascial Release therapy treatments are different.
* It's different from a typical massage
* It's different from conventional physical therapy
* It's different from chiropractic visits
All three above involves something to be done “to” your body. They all treat a part of your body as if it is separate and not affected by anything else.
Myofascial Release is a hands on therapeutic approach that applies gentle, sustained pressure for several minutes in targeted areas of the body to facilitate the release of tension in your fascial system. Your fascial system supports and protects you, but restrictions in it can cause chronic pain & reduce the ability of movement.
Think of your fascial system (connective tissue) like a 3-dimensional web that encompasses your entire body, inside and out, top to bottom.
Chronic pain can come from any number of sources: stress, health conditions, new and old injuries, surgery, trauma, posture, holding patterns, overuse/misuse doing activities that you enjoy, even emotions.
This approach aims to reduce/eliminate your pain, enhance mobility, and aid recovery from injuries or surgeries. Most importantly, it prioritizes identifying and treating the root cause of your pain and symptoms, providing more than just temporary relief.
Treating the whole body makes Myofascial Release uniquely effective in helping people heal and return to a pain-free active lifestyle! The use of John Barnes Myofascial Release allows us to look at each patient as a unique individual.
The one-on-one therapy sessions are hands-on treatments, first treating your symptoms to bring you much needed relief, but then seek to find and release the cause of the pain, which may be in a different location on the body.
Just a quick note that our style of Myofascial Release is NOT any of these other treatments
that can also be referred to as ‘myofascial release’: deep tissue, trigger point, foam rollers,
scraping, ART, structural integration, or massage.
