Myofascial Release (MFR) - John Barnes Method
'Myo' means muscle and 'fascia' is the connective tissue that is found throughout our body.
Accidents, scarring, trauma, inflammation, repeated postural stresses and/or surgery can create myofascial restrictions that can produce pressures of up to 2,000 pounds per square inch on pain sensitive structures. This can impose a“straight-jacket” of force, which may cause pain, headaches, anxiety and other symptoms. Myofascial Release is a safe and very effective manual therapy that involves applying gentle, sustained pressure into the myofascial connective tissue restrictions. As gentle pressure is applied slowly, the fascia begins to “release” or elongate. This amazing hands-on technique helps to soften and open up (or "release") these restricted areas, eliminating pain, restoring motion and improving function.
Myofascial release has proven effective in treading a wide variety of conditions, including:
- Acute and Chronic pain
- Headaches
- TMJ dysfunction
- Myofascial pain
- Post-traumatic stress disorder
- Scar Tissue
- Joint pain and stiffness
- Back and neck pain
- Sports injuries
- Neurological dysfunction
- Fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue
- Carpal Tunnel
- Repetitive stress injuries
- Postural imbalances
- Plantar fasciitis
- Whiplash
- Post-stroke
- Scoliosis
- Muscular pain
- Lumbar sacral dysfunction
- Post joint replacement
- Upper extremity injuries (wrist, hand)
