MFR……..Myofascia Release Therapy is a hands on approach to releasing restricted layers of fascia that can cause pain, swelling and other discomforts and irritations. I currently have two sessions every week. Without it, I can’t imagine coping with the level of pain and discomfort that I would have without MFR. As my SFN progresses, I will need even more sessions or more therapists at every session. I now have two therapists and two sessions a week.

One of our mentors, @jenniferhunter, has posted an entire section on MFR here on Connect. I'll let her introduce it to you. You can also go to https://myofascialrelease.com/ and read about the work of John Barnes. Only the John Barnes Expert Level therapists have enough experience and training for my level of need for myofascial therapy. There is also a Find a Therapist list so you can see who might be in your area. Not every therapist is on the list so let me know if you need helping locating one in your area.

May you be content and at peace.
Chris

@dbeshears1 Oh Chris, thank you for the nice introduction. Chris did a wonderful job describing how MFR works. I started a discussion about myofascial release so I could get a lot of information together. Look at the first pages for lots of links to information.

Myofascial Release Therapy (MFR) for treating compression and pain: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/myofascial-release-therapy-mfr-for-treating-compression-and-pain/

John Barne's website is https://myofascialrelease.com/ and the provider search can be found at http://mfrtherapists.com/

Another source of information is to call Therapy on the Rocks which is the practice of John Barnes and a treatment center. They can give you names of therapists who have trained there who may not be listed on the http://mfrtherapists.com/ website.

Here is the link. https://therapyontherocks.net/

MFR helps release tension and allows the body to realign itself. A lot of pain happens when bones and joints are pulled out of alignment by overly tight tissue, and surgeries also create scar tissue in the fascia that gets tight. MFR can help stretch that out and get the body moving better.

Imagine your body bound up with lots of tight rubber bands. Now if you could only loosen those..... well, yes you can!
