@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.

@jenniferhunter thank you for this explanation. One other question, can a massage therapist do mfr, or does it require a physical therapist? I am brimming with hope. Thank you.
