Questions

What can Myofascial Release (MFR) Help?

Myofascial Release can help with a wide array of things from chronic headaches, joint replacements, relaxation, performance enhancement and simply counteracting while improving the impact of gravity and daily life on our bodies and nervous system. What sets MFR apart from other therapies is that it addresses both the elastic and collagenous components of fascia which allows for long lasting change where most other therapies only address the elastic.

What can Tensegrity Balancing Help?

Tensegrity Balancing takes it a step further than MFR and releases the fascia but also changes it's shape through application of techniques that alter the loading pattern. Daily application techniques which contrast the habitual patterns allows the body to reach long term fascial remodeling.

Why will you give me self-treatment techniques or techniques to apply to the horses?
