Hi there @ezas123 Congratulations on your success with MFR. Actually, I am on my way to my MFR therapist in a few minutes. You will not suffer from excess scar tissue because the MFR process will make sure the fascia is not holding on and creating restrictions. Yes, it is expensive unless insurance will cover it. Are you working? Is Maria a certified OT? Insurance will help with the cost if your intention is to return to work.
When is your next session? You need to make sure you don't build up more scar tissue. That should also help you increase your ROM. Do you do the exercise where you hold a flat-out position for 5 or 10 minutes? That one helped me the most.
May you be content and at peace today.
Chris
