You seemed quite calm and collected on the show. What were you feeling inside? ® Jon Martine: I felt tired and a bit rushed since I had arrived at the hotel after mid- Rolfing Structural night and then had a bite to eat and got some sleep. My biggest concern was getting a coherent message across in such a short Integration on Oprah amount of time.

I paced By Anne Hoff, Certified Advanced Rolfer™ around the “Green Room” and talked to Amanda to settle down.

According to acupuncture theory, these acupuncture points lie along meridians along which qi, a kind of vital energy, is said to flow. There is no generally-accepted anatomical or histological basis for these concepts, and modern acupuncturists tend to view them in functional rather than structural terms, (as a useful metaphor in guiding evaluation and care of patients). Acupuncture is thought to have originated in China and is most commonly associated with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Different types of acupuncture (Classical Chinese, Japanese acupuncture) are practiced and taught throughout the world. Bowen Technique The Bowen Technique is one version of a group of technical interpretations of the work of Australian osteopath Tom Bowen (1916–1982) known as Bowen Therapy, which is a holistic system of healing.

  • Myofascial Release
    International Journal of Health Sciences and Research www.ijhsr.org ISSN: 2249-9571 Review Article Myofascial Release Salvi Shah1*, Akta Bhalara2 1Lecturer, SPB Physiotherapy College, Ugat-Bhesan Road, Surat, Gujarat 2Lecturer, Shree Swaminarayan Physiotherapy College, Khambhaliya highway, Jamnagar. *Correspondence Email: [email protected] Received: 10/04//2012 Revised: 28/04/2012 Accepted: 5/05/2012 ABSTRACT Myofascial release (MFR) refers to the manual massage technique for stretching the fascia and releasing bonds between fascia and integuments, muscles, bones, with the goal of eliminating pain, increasing range of motion and balancing the body. The fascia is manipulated, directly or indirectly, allowing the connective tissue fibers to reorganize themselves in to a more flexible, functional fashion. The purpose of the myofascial release is to release restrictions (barriers) within the deeper layers of fascia. This is accomplished by a stretching of the muscular elastic component of the fascia, along with the crosslink, and changing the viscosity of the ground substance of the fascia. Evidence shows that MFR is safe, effective and designated to be utilized with appropriate modalities, mobilization, exercise and flexibility programs, neurodevelopment treatment (NDT), sensory integration and movement therapy. Key words: MFR, fascia, flexibility INTRODUCTION Muscle and fascia are united forming the myofascial system. Myofascial therapy can be defined as The purpose of deep myofascial “the facilitation of mechanical, neural and release is to release restrictions (barriers) psycho physiological adaptive potential as within the deeper layers of fascia.

  • Exclusive Interview with John Barnes - Part 2
    Exclusive Interview with John Barnes - Part 2 John Barnes Part II Founder of Myofascial Release By Robert Calvert Reprinted from Massage, Issue Number 42, March/April 1993 The following is the second in a two-part interview with John Barnes P.T., the founder of the myofascial release technique. The first part of the interview appeared in the Jan./Feb. 1993 issue. As the last interview left off, Barnes talked about how his occasional seminars became a full-time venture. During the interview, John Barnes worked the entire time on Judi Calvert, who occasionally commented about the work he was doing. How long did it take before these occasional seminars turned into a real job? You must have done several years of teaching there in the locality? Barnes: “No, I immediately started going around the country.” Primarily marketing to physical therapists? Barnes: “Initially it was to PTs, physicians and dentists, TMJ specialists. Back in those days, I had not had much experience with massage therapists.” Judi: “I can tell that you’re a very persistent man in what you believe in just by you working on me right now. You haven’t given up. You haven’t let go of this area that you’re working on. You just move around, unwind, go in, move around, just go with it, but you don’t let go and you just keep the pressure on steady and it shows in your character.” Barnes: “I think we talked about challenge before and maybe it’s a blind spot I have, but it never occurs to me that if I’ve decided I want to do something that it can’t be done.
