Karen Burg, Myofascial Release Therapist

CAMTC #49491

Karen Burg is a Massage Therapist, Myofascial Release Therapist,
& Licensed Physical Therapist Assistant (retired) 
who has helped people get better for over 35 yrs. 
Owner / Founder, Dynamic Myofascial Release

Karen realized early on how important the mind/body connection affected healing, and the importance of treating the whole person. She was first introduced to the John Barnes Myofascial Release approach in 1994 after her own back injury at work. Prior to finding a therapist that treated her with MFR, she had tried all the typical therapies where she would get a bit better, but the results didn't last. When she found a clinic that only provided John Barnes Myofascial Release, it was THE game changer!  After a series of MFR sessions, she was able to return to all the sports she loved including swimming, kayaking, river rafting and sailing, pain free!! She knew then she had to learn these techniques so she could help others. Karen attended her first John Barnes courses in 1995, and has continued studying under John Barnes and his expert instructors.
 

In 2014, Karen became a massage therapist so she could treat the whole body in a more holistic way while continuing to work as a Physical Therapist Assistant. She started a part-time mobile MFR business working with friends and family which then propelled her to open Dynamic Myofascial Release in Clairemont to exclusively provide John Barnes Myofascial Release, and she stepped down from doing Physical Therapy. 

Her approach is gentle and intuitive, assessing the whole body, being mindful of your symptoms, but also looks elsewhere for the cause. She gets to the root cause of your pain, and treats those areas as well so you can get long lasting relief.  


Away from work, Karen enjoys all things beach. Everything from kayaking, swimming, snorkeling, shelling & strolling along the shoreline. Photography has been a long-time hobby, and she loves exploring new places and listening to live music.
