A great wealth of information here @jenniferhunter! thank you for assembling it! Is there a list of practitioners somewhere? ( I am in North County San Diego) Maybe I overlooked it - or maybe its within some of the links you posted. Thank you!

@loriesco Thank you for your kind words, and you're welcome! You'll find a provider search for MFR practitioners at http://mfrtherapists.com/

I can't recommend this type of fascial stretching enough. I personally have benefited a lot from doing this, and I continue to self treat at home with what I know how to do from my therapist.

There is also a book you can find called "Myofascial Stretching, A Guide to Self Treatment" by Jill Stedronsky and Brenda Pardy that has a lot of photos and descriptions on various MFR stretching you can do at home using balls to create the pressure for the stretch in place of the therapists hands. I usually do some stretching at night when I get in bed and I can lay on a ball placing it where it gets tight.
