Myofascial Release:
The John F. Barnes Approach

More info at www.myofascialrelease.com

Myofascial Release works with the fascial system of the body. The fascia is a tough connective tissue that surrounds every cell of the body, every bone, muscle, nerve, blood vessel, artery and organ. The fascia in a healthy state is relaxed, wavy and able to stretch and move without restrictions.

When we experience physical and or emotional trauma, accidents, surgeries, scarring, repetitive stress injuries, poor posture or inflammation, the fascia starts to loose its pliability, it becomes restricted, tight and creates tension and stress in the body. Over time, the fascia becomes "locked down". That tension decreases our flexibility and stability, and due to the excessive pressure the fascia exerts, can cause pain and holding patterns throughout the body.

Myofascial Release is a hands on treatment to eliminate pain and restore motion, to help each client return to a pain free, healthy and active lifestyle.
