The John F. Barnes’ Myofascial Release Approach® includes treating the many problems that women encounter. Myofascial Release can be very helpful for pelvic floor dysfunction and pain, vulvodynia, menstrual problems, interstitial cystitis, mastectomy pain, fibromyalgia, fibrocystic breasts and many other problems. An important new article has just been published called “To Revert Breast Cancer Cells.” Here is the link to the article. (http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/12/121217140544.htm)

“…physical force can play a role in the growth — and reversion — of cancer cells” Great article, and timely, as I’ve already had the opportunity to direct several people to it. It’s a great support of the concept that healthy ground substance (cellular environment) supports healthy cells.

It is so exciting that this information is now more available to so many people!
And, I add my recommendation for the Women’s Health seminar. It has much to offer. Check it out.

One of the most important self-treatment techniques a woman can do for her wellness is treating her own breasts.
As we become more and more familiar with our tissues, we are then able to feel changes deep into our system. I share breast pull techniques with all my female clients, especially those who have had any kind of breast surgery, including reductions and enhancements. Great article.

Having an MFR practice for over 10 years with many of John’s seminars under my belt, I work with a lot of women who have fibrocystic breasts. Using MFR techniques in this situation has brought about tears, joy and disbelief at the difference before and after treatment. I have also worked with women whose implants have hardened over the years, and have great success with softening the tissue surrounding the implants. In addition, these women also report less back pain and better ability to breathe fully. Thanks to John and his team for guiding and teaching me this ability to help my clients heal.

Fibrotic tissue/scar tissue, after my breast reduction I noticed it more. By self-treatment, using JFB-MFR technique, it has reduce those pesky little tender spot.

One of the best parts of JFB MFR is how much self care you can learn, and thus treat yourself and help yourself daily! Including breast work and other women’s, and men’s, health issues. There is sooo much you can do to help yourself with this work, along with
the help of highly trained therapists.
The Women’s Health Seminar was one of the most helpful personally for me in just those 4 days, and to be able to share this work with my clients and others is such a huge gift. I also highly recommend reading the article John mentions.
Thanks, John! Eileen Huber, Indianapolis

I have had several clients with breast restrictions due to either enhancements or masectomies. In all cases MFR has helped them tremendously and the self treatment options have really helped reconnect them to their WHOLE body. I plan on going to the women’s health seminar this year in Sedona to continue this amazing training & treatment.
Thank you John,
Sharon

This work saved my life. I had constant back pain before I had this work done. Since then, and ongoing my back pain is minimal for person of my age and activity level. This is such powerful and important work.
Thank you John for this groundbreaking work.

I highly recommend the Women’s Health Seminar. There are very good external and internal techniques taught in the course that every body (read body – as in everyone has one) would benefit from. Every course I have taken from John or one of his instructors has increased my level of feel and awareness.
I recently spent a week being treated by John and his staff in Paoli and had wonderful changes in my body, mind and spirit.
Thank you John and Staff for all you do!

Every body needs this work. The Women’s Health seminar is so vitally important!
If you have not done so yet, take this class now! Not only will you get some much needed treatment, but you will learn techniques that can truly help both women and men.
As a massage therapist, my license does not allow for pelvic floor work. The techniques I have learned for treating the breasts have been of great benefit to my client and teaching them how to self-treat is empowering!

I highly recommend the Women’s Health Seminar. I took John’s suggestion and got myself to the T4T soon after. It’s a winning combination.
Thanks John

This may sound surprising to some, but we have experienced on more than several occasions, complete reversal and healing of the breast tissues after being diagnosed with serious breast disease.
Myofascial Release is truly a lifesaving technique.

This work has been SO amazing for so many, including myself. Many years ago I was having horrible bladder issues and all I was offered was pills and diagnostics to monitor. Fortunately I had been introduced to JBMFR a couple of years prior, and although i never thought i would be the one to need the work, through it I was able to achieve completely restored function and control…and awareness of so much more.
Now I have a PT practice which allows me to help others with similar problems and often debilitating pelvic pain in the same way, every day. What a gift! Ever thankful for John and his staff!
