About Myofascial Release (MFR)

John F. Barnes’ Myofascial Release Approach ® is considered to be the ultimate mind/body therapy that is safe, gentle and consistently effective in producing results in reducing pain, headaches, fibromyalgia symptoms, and increases range of motion and function.

MFR offers opportunities for structural changes within the body as well as unlocking the physical and emotional holding patterns that are frozen in myofascial tissues. This specialized technique aims to alleviate pain and restore mobility. Treatment addresses restricted areas using a variety of compression, elongation and pandiculation stretching techniques to effect lasting changes in the tissues of the body.
