When someone asks me what I do...

One of the hardest questions I get is:
“So…what do you do for work?”

Good question.
I work under a massage license,
but I’m not really a “massage therapist”
in the way most people think.

I help people who have been living with pain,
tension, or exhaustion that never seems
to go away even after trying everything else.
Through a combination of gentle alignment work,
myofascial release, and deeper body listening,
I help the body find balance again so pain can
ease naturally, movement can return, and
the nervous system can finally rest.

The best way to describe what I do is this:
I help people reconnect with their bodies
in a way that creates lasting change.

I don’t fix people.
I create the conditions where the body
can finally let go and do what it already
knows how to do…heal.

That’s the simplest answer.
The rest you have to experience.

Notice the differences from the "normal fascia" and the "traumatized fascia".

Written by J. Barnes:
Fascia is a specialized system of the body that has an appearance similar to a spiders web or a sweater. 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. The most interesting aspect of the fascial system is that it is not just a system of fascial coverings. It is actually one continuous structure that exists from head to toe without interruption. In this way, you can begin to see that each part of the entire body is connected to every other part by the fascia, like the yarn in a sweater.

Trauma, inflammatory responses, and/or surgical procedures create myofascial restrictions that can produce tensile pressures up to 2000 pounds per square inch on pain sensitive structures that does not show up in many of the standard tests such as XRay, CAT scans, MRI, electromyography, myelograms, etc.
A high percentage of people suffering with pain and/or lack of motion may be having fascial problems, but are not diagnosed.

X marks the spot. We treat X and the pain goes away. Although most of the time, X is not the spot. X is where the pain is showing up. And, even when X marks the spot, rarely is it that just X is involved.

This is why it's important to check and address the whole body.

"Most often the side that is winning the tug-o-war is not the painful side. If the back hurts, check the front. If the left side hurts, check the right."

I had a client that came to me with complaints of right back, hip, groin, and IT band pain for over 10 yrs. They said they had tried PT, accupuncture, massage, chiropractic care over the years, and nothing gave them lasting relief. I then asked them if anyone had ever treated their left side for their pain. They said "NO, because my pain is on my right side."

As I assessed their right side, nothing stood out to me. Then I checked their left side. It was pretty tender and there was a line of tension, so I went ahead and treated those areas.

As I worked on their left side, they hadn't realized how tight they were there.

The pain on their right side went away.

When you've got a "spot" that is just not letting loose and it's like a thorn in your side, do you use a tennis ball or lacrosse ball to try and get that "knot" to release, but it hasn't really worked? If your answer is yes, I have an alternative.
With John Barnes Myofascial Release we tend to use a 4" vinyl ball, which has more surface area and is a tad softer which allows your body to not go into a protective response, especially when you first lie on it. (think stiffening up, grimacing, groaning, or moaning when you initially lie on the hard ball)
With the 4" ball we have you find "the spot", then do NOT roll around on the ball anymore. Stay put, and lie there for 5 or so minutes, allowing your tissues to soften into the ball. You may not feel the ball after a while. That's OK! Do NOT move the ball. It's doing its job! After the 5 or so minutes, you can move the ball to another location, and repeat.
