Fascia is very densely woven, covering and interpenetrating every muscle, bone, nerve, artery and vein as well as all of our internal organs including the heart, lungs, brain and spinal cord. It covers every inch of our body from head to toe. When our fascia is healthy, we have fluid movement in our joints and body. When fascia becomes restricted it can cause limited range of motion and pain. Injuries, surgeries, poor posture, repetitive motion and emotional trauma can create restrictions in our fascia.

Myofascial Release is a highly effective form of hand-ons therapy. It has been developed by internationally recognized physical therapist, lecturer, and author John F. Barnes. Through slow, deep and sustained pressure into tight, tender areas of the body, deep release and relaxtion occur. Pain is addressed and resolved with structural release work, rebounding to open the fluidity of our water-based body, and unwinding-following the body’s natural response in order to return to ease. Each session is completely individualized, guided by the specifics of the client and therapist findings.
