There are only two manual therapies that I've encountered in my life (I've dabbled in many) where I thought 'WOW, I need to learn this asap'. The first was Bowen Therapy, and the second is Integrated Myofascial Release. Both times it was actually receiving a treatment on myself and recognising immediately the powerful therapeutic outcome it had that became my catalyst to learn it. Incidentally I knew of both these techniques for many years, yet for reasons unknown I never acted on them, either for myself or for my business. Maybe I thought they were too gentle to be effective, I was definitely mistaken.
Having had my first MFR treatment in October and later that evening while standing at the checkout in Morrisons, I felt my right femur (upper leg bone) click into a new position, and all the chronic butt pain and right sided tension, nerve pain etc disssapated. I literally felt like I was re-learning how to walk, such was the sensory experience of having my pelvis realigned using the addition of pelvic blocks and longitudinal leg pulls, allowing this huge shift in my leg and the rest of my body. There's more work to be done for sure, we are talking about some 30 years of pain and dysfunction, but similar to my first experiences of Bowen, which took me 90% forward in my own rehabilitation, there is nothing else (in my opinion) out there that is as effective in restoring fascial dysfunction.
For those of you out there who need science backed, evidence based treatment, MFR has studies backing the therapeutic response to working with fascia in this way, which you can read until your hearts content.
I'm offering MFR treatments at half price until next year so I can hone my skills, as it is a completely new way for me of working with the body. If you would like to experience MFR then drop me a comment and we can discuss your suitability.
