What to expect during a Myofascial Release (MFR) session

We will begin your session by discussing your needs and goals.

Then I will evaluate your alignment, both standing and lying on the treatment table.

Based on your specific needs and my findings, I will begin the hands-on treatment. There is no sliding on the skin, so MFR uses no lotion or oil. It uses gentle and sustained pressure, stretching and traction to ease the fascia into releasing. Several minutes will be spent in each area treated.

Research that began in 2005 on fascia in living bodies has proven this approach to be highly effective. Tight fascia can produce up to 2000 pounds of pressure per square inch (no wonder you're hurting!) so it doesn't respond well to heavy pressure. Too much pressure causes the fascia to resist and tighten - a reflexive, protective function of fascia. Too little pressure doesn't engage the fascia.

Next, I will give you my recommendation for your treatment plan. The number of sessions needed varies as much as the people and conditions that MFR treats. Most people usually know within 3 or 4 sessions if MFR is right for them. Some have noticeable improvement after just 1 session.

Weekly treatment is highly recommended for best results until you reach a maintenance schedule. Together, we will evaluate your progress throughout your treatment plan to determine when you are ready for maintenance.

Book

Myofascial Release (MFR) uses gentle and sustained pressure, stretching and traction to release restrictions in fascia, the connective tissue.

It addresses the root causes of your pain, limited mobility and dysfunction, not just your symptoms.

Proven, Effective Pain Relief

Myofascial Release (MFR) is a gentle, highly effective, proven modality that addresses restrictions in fascia, the connective tissue, caused by trauma - physical, mental and emotional. Trauma from injuries, surgeries, repetitive motion strain, poor posture, inflammation, mental and emotional trauma and stress, etc. cause fascia, a three-dimensional web, to tighten and harden. This tightening and hardening spreads three-dimensionally, resulting in pain, often far from the original source. MFR is a whole body approach that looks at the whole pattern.

Authentic Healing

For those who suffer with chronic, often unexplained pain, limited mobility or dysfunction, especially those who have “tried everything” - including massage therapy, physical therapy, chiropractic, acupuncture, injections, etc - without getting relief, MFR provides authentic healing.

Return to the Activities You Love

It allows people to not only decrease pain and dysfunction in the body, but often avoid surgeries, and return to the activities they love.

I was scheduled for quadruple bypass heart surgery. My surgeon was out of town and had to wait two weeks for his return. A friend recommended a session with Maggie to help me relax and calm my anxiety so I didn’t have a heart attack before the surgeon returned.

Maggie came and worked with me. When the session ended I was so relaxed. I was 62 at the time and realized I never really knew what relaxation was before that session. I credit Maggie with helping me cope until surgery. The session was so peaceful that I believe the session helped save my life. I am 74 now and still here enjoying my 9 grandkids.

Maggie worked with me over 10 years. I would not change any healing I got from therapy, men’s groups, 12 step, prayer, church, or meditation etc. Yet, MFR is the key that released the pain in my mind, body and spirit that all the other methods left hidden so deep such that only Maggie was able to help me find and RELEASE. It freed me to live a much fuller life. Everything is better in my life because of MFR and Maggie.

I discovered how deeply and broadly corporal punishment from a parent and shame had affected me all my life. Maggie's help, with her gentle kindness for me, allowed me to totally trust her. By doing so I was able to go deep in my being and release so much pain I did not realize was buried so deep within.

Maggie moved to Florida. I miss her. I found another MFR therapist who is good, but is not Maggie. I can't imagine a better Myofascial Release therapist than Maggie. Her skill and knowledge are second to none.

Anyone who works with Maggie is working with the best.

With complete appreciation to Maggie!
