About Myofascial Release Therapy: This extraordinary bodywork was developed by John F. Barnes, PT, for humans and then he extended his work to horses. MFR focuses on finding and releasing restrictions in the 3D Myofascial web that surrounds every cell, muscle, tendon, ligament, bone and organ. The work goes to the deepest level of the body to restore balance in the horse. The goals of MFR are to:

* Release patterns of strain
* Relieve soft tissue and nerve pain
* Restore range of motion and postural distortion & compensation
* Restore mobility, strength and endurance
* Return the horse to his athletic function
