He has mentored and guided me in my life, my work. This is a huge loss to our community. đđâď¸
From MFR administration:
It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts that we share the news of the passing of our beloved leader, teacher, mentor and friend, John F. Barnes, PT.
John will be missed more than words can say. His kindness, generosity, sense of humor and deep love and connection he felt for all of us is a rare and special gift, which will be felt in our hearts forever.
As we reflect upon the impact John has had on each of us, we are reminded of what he brought to this world and what a better place it is because of him. We are forever grateful for the positive influence that John has had, not only on our lives, but on the lives of countless patients and MFR therapists throughout the world.
Johnâs lifeâs mission was to spread the awareness of the John F. Barnesâ Myofascial Release ApproachÂŽ.
Moving forward, we are dedicated to carrying out Johnâs mission through our Myofascial Release Treatment Centers & Seminars.
This has become John's favorite artist, and he always commented on the power and passion in his voice. Please allow yourselves to get quiet, reflect, visualize and feel deeply as you listen to this songâ¤ď¸
