@jordanabrams30, Good evening. I think @jenniferhunter described MFR well. There are compressions and restrictions that have to be identified and then using an MFR technique, eradicated. It was fortunate that my MFR therapist was helping an intern. So during the intern's time with me, she concentrated on my feet. It was amazing to feel those leathery and tough soles be turned into sensitive and usable feet. Another technique used was to gently pull on my feet to open up the restrictions. And then there was another one in which I placed my feet on the therapist's shoulders so she could have a different perspective. My experience has been that these expert level MFR therapists can feel so much more than we can. That makes them able to target, define, and treat what is going on under the skin.

Right now I must keep the fascia happy and unrestricted which I do every week in a treatment session and at home. Once you get to this point, you sure don't want to go back.

An even greater improvement for me has been to finally get through the layers of fascia restrictions in my knee after a total knee replacement (TKR) so that I could begin walking again. Three years ago I walked about 3 miles 5 days a week. Since being slammed with small fiber neuropathy (SFN) at the same time as chronic myofascial pain syndrome (CMPS) I have been pretty housebound. In the last 3 weeks, I have gradually increased my walking regimen to 1 mile 3 times a week. A huge improvement and a "feel good" activity. Releases endorphins that we need for happiness. May you be free of suffering, safe and protected.
