Thank you for answering, will read all these articles. I feel like there might be some hope. Just wondering if one or two releases will do the trick, or if it requires on going treatment.

@scgraham usually MFR is ongoing because you work through all the layers of tight tissue that your body built up over the years, and you need to continue doing stretches to maintain what you have achieved. The good news is that you can treat yourself at home after you learn what to do. You can't do everything because your PT can reach places where you can't, but what you do at home will help. Sometimes the first few appointments just scratch the surface.

@scgraham, The MFR treatment may take longer than you might expect. It all depends on the number of layers and the frequency of treatment plus the follow up that you do at home. You may want to go twice a week in the beginning. @jenniferhunter May be able to add her experience with a cranky knee. Be safe and protected today. Chris
