Seeing my clients return  to a  pain-free life is why I practice JFB-MFR ​ I have been practicing massage since 2014, drawn to the practice by  the  desire to help relieve people's pain and  suffering. I saw clients with all manner of aches and pains; back pain, neck pain,  shoulder pain, headaches, and on and on. They would get off the table feeling great,  only  to return month after month with the  same  complaints, sometimes slightly better,  often  much worse. I began to feel I was letting them down, in fact, I felt dishonest suggesting they keep returning only to get limited, temporary relief.   There had to be a  better way. ​ I began studying different "alternative" modalities in  search  of a therapy that would provide lasting relief in a  relatively short time. I was continually disappointed. Eventually, I arrived at an "introductory" seminar for the  John F. Barnes Myofascial Release Approach . After just 30 minutes into the  seminar, after 10 years of  searching  and being  disappointed, I  knew that I had what I was searching for, and more importantly, what  everybody needed. After that  first  training, my clients began to see fast,  lasting  relief, often after the  initial   session! After  just a   few  sessions, I was being  told that their pain and  discomfort was gone, often after many years of other  therapies with no long term relief. They were able to move better, sleep better, and  return  to  activities   they had  been forced to abandon. I also noticed a change in people's stress levels, how  their mind-body was interlinked with their physical pain. JFB-MFR has the  capacity to allow people to experience themselves and their lives on a much deeper level. ​ ​
